Job Description

1. Job Overview

The LNG Project Engineer is responsible for coordinating and supporting multidisciplinary engineering and construction activities related to the delivery of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facilities.

The role serves as a technical interface between Engineering, Construction, Procurement, Quality, Project Controls, Commissioning, vendors and subcontractors, ensuring that project requirements are translated into safe and executable construction activities.

The position also supports engineering deliverables, constructability reviews, technical queries, design changes, field engineering requirements and the resolution of technical issues affecting construction.

2. Key Responsibilities

Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering activities related to 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.
Provide technical support to construction teams and resolve field engineering issues affecting safety, quality, cost or schedule.
Coordinate the resolution of Technical Queries (TQs), Requests for Information (RFIs), field design changes and engineering clarifications.
Review construction work packages to ensure that engineering documentation, materials and technical requirements are complete.
Support constructability reviews and identify design or installation constraints before construction.
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 and project schedules.
Review vendor documentation and coordinate technical matters related to LNG equipment, packaged units, piping systems, valves and mechanical equipment.
Verify that field installation complies with approved IFC drawings, project specifications, applicable codes and standards, and vendor requirements.
Support design change management and ensure approved changes are reflected in drawings, specifications and field instructions.
Evaluate the technical impact of proposed changes, deviations, substitutions and field modifications.
Support material and equipment technical reviews and resolve material shortages, substitutions and technical non-conformances.
Participate in technical reviews, constructability meetings, coordination meetings and site inspections.
Work with Quality teams to resolve Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), technical deviations and engineering-related quality issues.
Support systemization, mechanical completion, pre-commissioning, commissioning and handover activities.
Participate in system walkdowns and support the resolution of punch-list items.
Ensure engineering changes are accurately reflected 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 risks, clashes and constraints.
Ensure compliance with applicable industry standards, including API, ASME, NFPA, IEC and ISO.
Support process-safety requirements and actions arising from HAZID, HAZOP, SIL and other project safety reviews.
Promote safe working practices and support project HSE, environmental, quality and process-safety objectives.

3. Qualifications and Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Chemical, Process, Civil, Electrical, Instrumentation Engineering or a related engineering field.
Typically 10–15 years of relevant engineering and project execution experience, preferably in LNG, oil and gas, petrochemical, refinery or other major process-industry projects.
Demonstrated experience in large-scale EPC/EPCM construction projects, preferably as a site-based Project Engineer or Field Engineer.
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 industry codes and standards, including ASME, API, NFPA, IEC and ISO.
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 across multidisciplinary project teams.
Knowledge of construction work packaging, constructability reviews, field engineering, material control and quality requirements.
Experience supporting mechanical completion, systemization, pre-commissioning, commissioning and handover activities is highly desirable.
Strong technical problem-solving skills and ability to develop safe and practical engineering solutions.
Good understanding of HSE, process safety, quality, cost, schedule and risk management.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office and standard engineering/project-management software.

4. Preferred Qualifications

Experience in EPC, LNG, oil and gas, petrochemical, energy or major industrial construction projects.
Experience with SmartPlant/Hexagon, AVEVA, Navisworks, Primavera P6 or similar project systems.
Professional certification or membership in a recognised engineering or construction-related professional body.
Professional engineering registration or membership of a recognised engineering institution is advantageous, but not essential.
