Where you fit in

We are one of the world's leading companies, providing energy to sustain people's lives for over 125 years. Our business has been built on a foundation of innovative technology and skilled employees.

Technical Asset Operations (TAO) is a key enabler for the accelerated delivery of Shell's Asset Management System and will help us to reach our ultimate potential in Downstream Manufacturing, Integrated Gas and Upstream. TAO provides high quality and cost-competitive technical resources who are not physically present at site yet are an integral part of asset teams delivering value through end-to-end AMS work processes.

What is the Role?

In this role you will be responsible for performing engineering activities covering all areas of instrumentation technology including flow, level, temperature, pressure measurement, control valves, and analyzers.

You are also expected to perform the following:

• Design Engineering activities such as Control Valve / Orifice / Transmitters Sizing and Selection
• Proactive Technical Monitoring -Exception based Surveillance for early detection of threats and opportunities through structured monitoring of process and equipment.
• Bad actor analysis for nuisance trips based on SAP notifications.
• Identify unit performance improvement opportunities and reliability risks, and work with Area team to determine and implement cost effective solutions
• Conduct or support failure analysis of instrumentation failures or incidents
• Own, lead and resolve MTO threats with cost effective, root cause solutions
• Lead Proactive technical monitoring activities using site data and tools.
• Seek best practices and new technology opportunities (ie. Wireless technology, Smart instruments)
• Support the clean-up of Critical data, including P&IDs, Instrument datasheets, Wiring Drawings (SPI) and SAP.
• Support instrumentation equipment obsolescence planning and upgrade strategies.
• Support the turnaround instrumentation plan and work list for assigned areas. Provide active support for the implementation of instrumentation scope during turnarounds.
• Author Plant Changes (MOC) within the instrumentation discipline and provide Technical Assurance of plant changes by other disciplines and departments
• Update SAP equipment BOM to reflect actual installed base as found by the end device survey. Examine breadth and depth of device manufacturer and models and standardize on as few variations as possible. Use this data to update SAP BOM and sparing/warehouse strategies to minimize stock and standardize devices.

You are also expected to participate in standard cadence meetings such as console review, DPR, and MTO meetings as required. You will also participate in standard cadence meetings such as console review, DPR, and MTO meetings as required. You will network with other sites TAO personnel to maintain a high quality of work and proactively seek best practices and new technology opportunities (ie. Wireless technology, Smart instruments)
