SPS System Engineer

• Starting date: ASAP 2024

• Duration: 1.5 years to 5 years

• Renewable: Yes

• Location: FRANCE / Paris, then at Contractor engineering site during Project execution

• Status: Residential

Context & Environment

The activity takes place in the context of the pre-Project, FEED, Call For Tender, and Project Execution Phase of a major very Deep Water greenfield Project in Namibia. The Venus GPI is a multidisciplinary team that coordinates the development studies managed by the company on the Deep Water discoveries of offshore Namibia Block 2913B. The technical challenges the GPI / Project will face are the reservoirs development and management, the subsea production/injection system definition in a challenging environment. The Venus Project will be developed with the objectives to maximize economical results by optimizing the reserves, the schedule, reducing the costs and the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission, while maintaining the technical quality of the installations, with high H3SE requirements and focus.

Missions/Service Dimensions

The service holder will be responsible for subsea system engineering activities and technical matters related to the Venus project, as part of the GPI (‘’Groupe Projet Interne’’) Venus team. This will include but not be limited to reviewing, approving, preparing and managing all studies during Pre-project and FEED, Call For Tender and EPCI phases for the SPS system for a very deep water oil greenfield project. The Service Provider will be leading the system engineering activities, and be supporting the procurement, fabrication, installation and pre-commissioning activities for SPS equipment. The Service Provider will provide support to the SPS Technical Manager and the SPS team and liaise with other project teams (SURF).
