About bp:

 

bp Technical Solutions India (TSI) centre in Pune, strives to build on bp’s existing engineering and technical strengths to deliver high-quality services to its hydrocarbons and new energy businesses worldwide. TSI brings together diverse engineering capability to provide technical services across a range of areas including engineering, maintenance, optimization, data processes, projects and subsurface, to deliver safe, affordable and lower emission energy, while continuously innovating how we work.

Role Synopsis

Deliver process engineering duties in the Production and Support Systems Squad, within the Production Management Unit (PMU). Collaborating with the PMU Process Engineering Team Lead.

 

The PMU uses innovative digital and data science technologies to perform Monitoring & Surveillance, model-based optimization, and capacity assessments. Focused across 4 chokes (Reservoir – Wells – Plant – Export) and 4 product streams (Oil – Gas – Water – Carbon).

 

The Production and Support Systems Squad is a multi-discipline squad of petroleum, process, instrument and control, electrical, and rotating equipment engineers that delivers monitoring & surveillance, model-based optimization, and capacity assessments to the Production Delivery Units (PDUs). The P&SS squad works in partnership with the PDU production management squad to deliver against the production management workflows and realize increased production or production protection opportunities.

 

The Process Engineer within the P&SS Squad leads the tools deployed for system monitoring and surveillance in Palantir Foundry and PI AF systems, and for topsides optimization using Hysys through the Vertex Foundry interface. Additionally, the process engineer will support definition and deployment of new solutions for M&S and optimization.

 

The PMU is global unit developed during Reinvent with a phenomenal opportunity to build new capability that delivers significant value to the existing hydrocarbon businesses in production but also transferable skills and capabilities for other areas. The PMU has embedded new ways of working in the oil regions (North Sea, Gulf of America, CCAT, and Trinidad) and is now rolling out to the Upstream gas regions.

Key Accountabilities

PMU Process Engineer:

• Conducts routine monitoring and surveillance of production systems using deployed analytical tools to identify anomalies and alerts.
• Conducts routine optimization of production systems as part of a cross-discipline petroleum and process engineering effort to identify improved operating points applying BP Vertex toolset.
• Partners with production delivery units on alerts and findings to ensure early intervention/execution and value realization.
• Collaborates with BP Technology to deploy standardized process supervising solutions and improve existing toolkit.
• Leads delivery of custom process monitoring and surveillance solutions in Palantir Foundry environment passionate about early detection of weak signals related to equipment and system performance degradation.
• Actively participates in the global PMU Process field to develop, deploy and embed new insights and solutions.
• Collaborates with other PMU fields (Rotating equipment, Automation, Power, Petroleum, Subsea, Production Chemistry) to deliver coordinated insight and equipment performance understanding.
• Supports other regions on high priority PMU activities/work in the monitoring, surveillance and optimization (as needed).
• Follows workflow management using agile principles established in the regional PMU P&SS squad.
• Supports stand-up of new PMU hubs in the Wave 2 regions (as needed).

Essential Education:

Bachelor’s degree in Process or Chemical Engineering

Essential Experience and Job Requirements:

• Process engineering knowledge of unit operations in the upstream oil and gas environment.
• Experience in supporting facilities through surveillance, monitoring and optimization.
• Process simulation and modelling skills using Hysys.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work with multiple collaborators and across related engineeringfieldss.

Desirable criteria

• Experience in analyzing operational plant data to identify, understand and then propose solutions to operational issues.
• Experience in optimization of production operations across 4 chokes (reservoir, wells, plant and export) as a part of cross-disciplinary team.
• Experience with developing dashboards, analytics and analysis in Palantir Quiver; familiar with Workshop, Fusion and Contour applications.
• Understanding of data science aspects related to forecasting and pattern analysis for solving equipment issues.
• Understanding AI and machine learning applications in identifying equipment performance anomalies.
• Understanding of agile principles for workflow management.
