Reimagine What’s Possible
POSITION SUMMARY
Purpose
To provide High Voltage and Power Generation engineering oversight to ensure the working and safe & reliable operation of IGCC plant facilities under JIGPC in Jazan, Saudi Arabia.
Nature & Scope
The Jazan IGCC is the world’s largest IGCC and ASU facility producing 2100 MMSCFD syngas, 18,000 MT/Day Oxygen and 4 Gigawatts of power. Facilities and assets include residue gasification, acid gas clean up (Rectisol), soot ash recovery, sulfur recovery (Claus & Scot), combined cycle power plants, materials handling systems, hydrogen recovery, air separation, water utilities systems and wastewater treatment facilities.
Properly functioning of the power systems are critical to the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of the plant facilities and associated equipment & systems. As a member of the site engineering team, the HV and Power Generation Engineer will interact routinely with plant operations, maintenance, and other engineering personnel to provide “hands-on” field-engineering & troubleshooting support, instructions, system rectification and technical guidance related to the site’s HV (380kV, 230kV, 132kV) and generation unit’s systems. The position emphasizes teamwork, communications, organization, change management, work process optimization, planning, leadership, and hands-on technical skills with comprehensive knowledge across other engineering disciplines.
