  • Collaborate with design teams to ensure process safety is considered in all stages of design, from conceptual to detailed engineering.
  • Review and approve safety systems, including relief systems, fire and gas detection, shutdown systems, and emergency response plans.
  • Ensure compliance with local, national, and international safety regulations, industry codes, and standards (e.g., OSHA, NFPA, ISO, IEC, and API standards).
  • Review and validate the safety integrity levels (SIL) for critical control systems and recommend necessary design modifications.
  • Conduct safety reviews of project deliverables, including P&IDs, process flow diagrams, and safety-related documentation.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and project team members on process safety-related matters.
  • Work with project management to ensure adherence to timelines, budgets, and safety milestones.
  • Collaborate with clients, vendors, and third-party contractors to align on safety specifications and deliverables.
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of developments in process safety management and engineering best practices.

KEY QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelors degree in Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or related field. A Masters degree or relevant certifications (e.g., CSP, CFSE) is a plus.
  • A minimum of 8-10 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, with significant experience in process safety engineering and detailed engineering design.
  • Strong knowledge and practical experience with HAZOP, FMEA, Bow-Tie Analysis, and other process safety methodologies.
  • Extensive experience with safety instrumented systems (SIS), fire and gas detection systems, and safety relief systems.
  • Solid understanding of relevant international standards and local regulations for process safety (e.g., API, IEC, NFPA, ISO).
  • Proficiency in the use of process safety software tools and engineering design tools (e.g., P&ID, FLACS, Aspen HYSYS).
  • Strong ability to communicate complex technical concepts to multidisciplinary teams and clients.
  • Proven ability to lead and collaborate with diverse teams in a multicultural work environment.
  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and decision-making skills.
  • Strong attention to detail, with the ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks effectively.
  • Experience in onshore oil and gas projects in the Middle East region is highly preferred.
