Job Description

Job Overview:

The LNG Project Engineer is responsible for coordinating and supporting multidisciplinary engineering and construction activities associated with the delivery of LNG facilities. The role provides the technical interface between Engineering, Construction, Procurement, Quality, Project Controls, Commissioning, vendors, and subcontractors to ensure that project requirements are effectively translated into safe and executable construction activities.

The Project Engineer supports engineering deliverables, constructability reviews, technical queries, design changes, field engineering requirements, and resolution of technical issues affecting construction. The role monitors engineering and construction interfaces to identify potential constraints, risks, and discrepancies and ensures timely resolution in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, project procedures, and applicable codes and standards.

A strong understanding of LNG and hydrocarbon facilities, process and cryogenic systems, constructability, HSE and process safety requirements, and relevant industry standards is essential to ensure that technical solutions are safe, practical, compliant, and aligned with project cost and schedule objectives.

Responsibilities

Key Tasks and Responsibilities:

  • Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering activities associated with LNG facilities, including civil, structural, mechanical, piping, electrical, instrumentation, and process systems.
  • Review engineering drawings, specifications, datasheets, P&IDs, equipment layouts, piping isometrics, and other technical documentation to confirm suitability for construction.
  • Provide technical support to Construction teams and resolve field engineering issues that could affect safety, quality, cost, or schedule.
  • Coordinate resolution of technical queries (TQs), Requests for Information (RFIs), field design changes, and engineering clarifications.
  • Review construction work packages to confirm engineering documentation, materials, specifications, and technical requirements are complete before release to the field.
  • Support constructability reviews and identify design or installation constraints before they affect construction activities.
  • Coordinate technical interfaces between Engineering, Construction, Procurement, Quality, Project Controls, Commissioning, vendors, and subcontractors.
  • Monitor engineering deliverables and identify technical issues that may affect construction priorities, critical-path activities, or system completion.
  • Review vendor documentation and coordinate technical matters related to major LNG equipment, packaged units, piping systems, valves, mechanical equipment, and associated utilities.
  • Verify that field installation complies with approved IFC drawings, project specifications, applicable codes and standards, and vendor requirements.
  • Support management of design changes and ensure that approved changes are incorporated into relevant drawings, specifications, material requirements, and field instructions.
  • Evaluate the technical impact of proposed changes, deviations, substitutions, and field modifications.
  • Support material and equipment technical reviews and assist in resolving material substitutions, shortages, and technical non-conformances.
  • Participate in technical reviews, constructability meetings, coordination meetings, and site walkdowns.
  • Work closely with Quality teams to resolve NCRs, technical deviations, punch items, and engineering-related quality issues.
  • Support systemization, mechanical completion, pre-commissioning, commissioning, and handover activities.
  • Participate in system and subsystem walkdowns and support technical resolution of punch-list items.
  • Ensure engineering changes and field modifications are accurately captured in red-line drawings and final as-built documentation.
  • Support quantity, progress, and schedule reviews by providing accurate engineering and construction status information.
  • Monitor engineering and construction interfaces to identify potential risks, clashes, and constraints and ensure timely resolution.
  • Ensure technical activities meet project requirements and applicable LNG/process-industry standards, such as API, ASME, NFPA, IEC and ISO standards, as applicable to the project scope.
  • Support implementation of process-safety requirements and actions arising from HAZID, HAZOP, SIL and other project safety reviews, where applicable.
  • Promote safe working practices and actively support project HSE, environmental, quality, and process-safety objectives.

Qualifications

Essential Qualifications and Education:

  • Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, Chemical, Process, Civil, Electrical, Instrumentation, or Engineering field related experience.
  • Typically 10 to 15 years of relevant engineering and project execution experience, preferably within LNG, oil and gas, petrochemical, refinery, or other major process-industry projects.
  • Demonstrated experience working on large-scale EPC/EPCM construction projects, preferably in a site-based Project Engineer or Field Engineer capacity.
  • Practical knowledge of multidisciplinary engineering and construction activities, including piping, mechanical equipment, civil/structural works, electrical, instrumentation, and process systems.
  • Experience reviewing and interpreting P&IDs, plot plans, equipment layouts, piping isometrics, general arrangement drawings, specifications, datasheets, and IFC drawings.
  • Working knowledge of relevant industry codes and standards, such as ASME, API, NFPA, IEC, ISO, and applicable project specifications.
  • Understanding of LNG and hydrocarbon-facility requirements, including cryogenic systems, pressure containment, hazardous areas, fire and gas systems, and process safety principles.
  • Familiarity with HAZID, HAZOP, SIL, Management of Change (MOC), technical queries, RFIs, design changes, and engineering deviation processes.
  • Experience coordinating technical interfaces between Engineering, Construction, Procurement, Quality, Project Controls, Commissioning, vendors, and subcontractors.
  • Knowledge of construction work packaging, constructability reviews, field engineering, material control, quality requirements, and technical resolution of construction issues.
  • Experience supporting mechanical completion, systemization, pre-commissioning, commissioning, and handover activities is highly desirable.
  • Strong technical problem-solving skills with the ability to evaluate field issues and develop safe, practical, and constructible solutions.
  • Good understanding of HSE, process safety, quality, cost, schedule, and risk management requirements associated with LNG and major construction projects.
  • Proficiency in standard engineering and project-management software, including Microsoft Office applications. Experience with systems such as SmartPlant/Hexagon, AVEVA, Navisworks, Primavera P6, or similar project systems is advantageous.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to coordinate effectively across multidisciplinary and multicultural project teams.
  • Professional engineering registration or membership of a recognized engineering institution is advantageous but not essential, subject to project and local regulatory requirements.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience working on EPC, LNG, oil and gas, petrochemical, energy, or major industrial construction projects.
  • Professional certification or membership in a recognized quantity surveying, engineering, or construction-related professional body is an advantage.
