KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES:

• Prepares monthly production & capacity plan including well availability and allowable, facility constrains and production target.
• Plans for the plant shutdown activities (preventive maintenance, integrity requirement and drilling activities) to minimize production loss and maximize plant availability.
• Maintains daily contact with Field Operations personnel to ensure proper scheduling of events, to give advice, troubleshoot problematic areas, recommends solutions for short-term implementation and investigate long-term solutions.
• Acts as a link between site operations personnel, reservoir and well operation engineers in a day to day well operations activity. Supervises the acquisition of technical data for maximizing the efficiency of production/injection systems and their operations. Ensures reservoir guidelines are met.
• Interprets and analyses non-routine feedback reports from the field to ensure specified oil production targets are not interrupted. Justifies variances from set constraints such as; flow rate, gas/oil ratio, water cut, salt content etc. Identifies problem areas associated with production and specifications such as; increased in salt content, malfunctioning of equipment and assists offshore personnel with remedial actions.
• Provides support field operation team in investigating specific production problems such as; increase/decrease of oil production, equipment modifications and recommends alternative courses of action.
• Lead asset vision in Digital Oil Field application to improve decision making trough real time data.
• Manages the databases on oil, water and gas production injection and necessary reporting on daily monthly basis using APEX or similar software.
• Validates and provides wells availability status to reservoir and well operation team, review the production allowable, well performance data and provides operation personnel guidance on production optimization.
• Ensures production allocation reports (oil/gas and water) are continuously updated and maintains a proper record of well status.
• Provides technical operational support to site operations team, and maintenance engineering teams to ensure continuous efficient and safe operations by preparing, reviewing and updating operating procedures and develops special procedures for non-routine jobs in field facilities (such as SIMOPS activities).
• Acts as focal point from Field Development for Surface Facilities studies, modifications and capacity improvement schemes.
• Reviews and participates in process safety studies such as HAZOP, QRA, PHSER, Safety case, Hazardous Area classification, safety Device Register, etc...
• Participates in accident/incident investigations whenever requested, risk assessments of field operations whenever necessary and participates in studies/task forces required by management.
• Plans and participates in the ongoing training and development of assigned UAE National employees, including assessing employees training and development needs, directing the preparation of structured development familiarization programs, monitoring and reporting on progress and counseling employees, as required.
• Works in line with HSE policy and ensure awareness and compliance of HSE rules and regulations.
• Plan, supervise and coordinate all activities in the assigned area to meet functional objectives.
• Train and develop the assigned staff on relevant skills to enable them to become proficient on the job and deliver the respective section objectives.
• Provide input for preparation of the Department / Section budgets and assist in the implementation of the approved Budget and work plans to deliver Section objectives.
• Investigate and highlight any significant variances to support effective performance and cost control.
• Implement approved Department / Section policies, processes, systems, standards and procedures in order to support execution of the Section’s work programs in line with Company and International standards.
• Contribute to the achievement of the approved Performance Objectives for the Department / Section in line with the Company Performance framework.
• Prepare PE input into Technical Committee Meeting PFISC, PDSC & TCM.
• Design and implement new tools and techniques to improve the quality and efficiency of operational processes.
• Identify improvements in internal processes against best practices in pursuit of greater efficiency in line with best Industry standards in order to define intelligent solutions for issues confronting the function.
