Process Engineer III

Description

KLJ Engineering is seeking a skilled Process Engineer to support oil and gas

projects through process design, data analysis, modeling, and

engineering documentation. This role involves conducting field evaluations,

developing process flow and instrumentation diagrams (PFDs & P&IDs),

performing hydraulic and equipment sizing calculations, and troubleshooting

plant operations. Responsibilities also include preparing technical reports,

simulations, and regulatory documentation, and contributing to

HAZOP/LOPA studies and Health & Safety Plans.

Qualifications

Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering or related field (Master's preferred)

3-5 years of relevant process engineering experience

Proficiency with PFDs, P&IDs, hydraulic calculations, and simulation

software (e.g., VMG, HYSYS)

Strong communication, teamwork, and technical problem-solving skills

Familiarity with oil and gas equipment, codes, and regulatory requirements

• Collect, compile, and analyze data from the physical work site,
  
  

surveys, data, subsurface information, maps, and other matrices for

the planning, engineering, scheduling, and execution of oil and gas

equipment, components, structures, and systems projects.

• Maintain and ensure quality control standards and procedures for accurate
  
  

and precise engineering calculations and statistical analysis of data relating

to hydraulics, line/flare/header sizing, and construction for

equipment such as pressure vessels, heat exchangers, process towers,

aerial coolers, pumps, fired heaters, filters, compressors,

PSV's, flares, combustors, and storage tanks.

• Perform professional process engineering work relating to the preparation of
  
  

engineering reports, engineering drawings and specifications for complex oil

& gas projects involving equipment identification, field walkdowns,

process flow diagrams (PFD's), piping and instrumentation diagrams

(P&ID's), process simulations, datasheets, and engineering

calculations including hydraulics and equipment sizing.

• Participate in incorporating process engineering expertise, advanced
  
  

technology, optimization practices, and operating strategies to account

for the safety and functionality of end-users, systems, structures, and

the incorporation of sustainable solutions with process engineering design

stan

• Conduct simulations studies and utilize process models for new and existing
  
  

facilities to conduct production capacity assessment, capacity increases,

equipment performance and design constraints, and identify plant's

bottlenecks.

• Contribute to the services provided by the KLJ Oil & Gas group, field
  
  

equipment applications and operations, and related practices including

process design and modeling.

• Work as an individual or as part of a cross-functional team to execute
  
  

project work, assisting with design concepts, diagrams, construction,

evaluations, root cause analysis findings, mitigation of overpressure

scenarios, project controls, calculating costs and quantities of

material/equipment/labor, and ensuring project work conforms with

specifications, permit applications, compliance documentation, and

regulatory and technical analysis memos.

• Prepare data and visualizations such as tables, charts, accurate
  
  

reports, illustrations, computations, and simulations for the

interpretation or presentation of data, findings, or analyses.

• Assist with development and scoping of small- to medium-sized projects.
• Contribute to the preparation of technical reports and presentations that
  
  

explain research and findings to improve, prevent, control, restore,

debottleneck existing facilities, or address design and/or construction

issues or problems.

• Conduct process engineering studies and surveys to gain further information
  
  

on a particular design, issue, and/or to plan for future needs.

• Assist in providing technical support for crude oil processing operating
  
  

plants; troubleshooting major pl nt upsets and/or chronic operational

problems to identify improvement opportunities, potential problems, and

remedies to existing problems and improve performance.

• Participate in HAZOP and LOPA studies as process engineering group
  
  

representative and provide resolutions

• Assist in the preparation and implementation of site Health and Safety Plans
  
  

(HASPs).

• Work collaboratively with other professionals, clients,
  
  

subconsultants, and regulators in executing project work.

• Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds,
  
  

resources, and conduct, and adhere to KLJ's Code of Conduct and related

policies and procedures.

• Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs.
• Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering, or closely related
  
  

engineering discipline.
