Venture Global LNG
Director, Production Engineering
Venture Global LNG, Louisiana, Missouri, United States, 63353
About the Company
Venture Global LNG (“Venture Global”) is a long‑term, low‑cost provider of American‑produced liquefied natural gas. The company’s Louisiana‑based export projects service the global demand for North American natural gas and support the long‑term development of clean and reliable North American energy supplies. Using reliable, proven technology in an innovative plant design configuration, Venture Global’s modular, mid‑scale plant design will replace traditional designs as it allows for the same efficiency and operational reliability at significantly lower capital cost. Position
Director, Production Engineering
(Cameron, LA; frequent travel to Arlington, VA). This role reports to the SVP, Integrated Production Excellence and will be responsible for developing or progressing an Operational Readiness schedule to transition the facility from EPC to the operations phase. Post transition, the role will work closely with Production/Operations, Maintenance, Commercial Operations, Gas Supply and other Engineering disciplines to ensure that the safe and sustainable realization of facility production targets are met. Responsibilities
Understand all facets of Feed Gas Allocation, and LNG/NGL production, storage, and shipping. Apply principles of fluid flow, heat transfer, thermodynamics, and hydrocarbon process chemistry as applied to an operating process unit, and be familiar with the hazards of hydrocarbon processes and the methods used to keep process facilities safe. Review and validate forecasting and scheduling tools. Using these tools, advise Production Management of limitations or deficiencies that may impact production. Serve as a technical resource for the outage planning organization. Review and validate tools for monitoring and ordering catalyst and chemicals needed to manage the facility. Maintain energy balance models. Develop tools to quantify facility emissions to support environmental and compliance reporting. Review and validate the daily Production status reports depicting all critical information and data for Production Management, including Inlet Feed Gas measurement and allocation, Power Consumption, LNG/NGL Production, Emissions and Waste measurements, and Efficiency monitoring. Develop and maintain loss accounting summaries to allow for identification or categorization of facility production losses. Review and validate production performance summaries for each process unit summarizing data on total production, capacity utilization, operating reliability, unit efficiency, production loss categories and quantities, and energy utilization. Thoroughly understand the technical Management of Change process and utilize it in support of facility changes. Participate in regulatory agency audits. Support procedure development and training related to capital projects, temporary or new modes of operation, and compliance. Work with Engineering and Construction departments as needed to assure O & M interests are represented on major projects. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Chemical/Process Engineering. A Professional Engineer’s (PE) License or equivalent CEng license is preferred. Ten to Fifteen (10‑15) years demonstrable experience as a Production Engineer in an LNG liquefaction facility is required, with a solid understanding of feed gas pre‑treatment, NGL/Condensate management and Storage and loading applications. Other Process related experience in petrochemical, NGL, cryogenic natural gas processing, or other hydrocarbon processing experience is a plus. Competent in the use of specialized software including but not limited to PI, Process Book, Sigmafine, HYSYS, Pro‑Treat, HTRI. Ability to communicate effectively at all levels of an organization and with individuals and groups from different disciplines, industries and governmental agencies. Must maintain a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) card in good standing status. Venture Global LNG is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
