Position Summary
The Area Delivery Engineer is responsible for supporting the Area Delivery Manager in the integration of planning and alignment of delivery priorities across the area to ensure business plan and gas production objectives are met and ensuring complete gas and water systems are progressed through execution and handed to operations.
Key aspects of the role include:
• Ensuring that execution and start-up plans for flexible scope (from well to FCS, and from the Access-to-Work milestone to steady-state production) are consistent with priorities for gas production;
• Identifying constraints to the execution and start-up of individual gathering systems in the area, ensuring these constraints are reflected in functional plans and driving resolution; and
• Ensuring functional, assurance and permitting requirements for bringing gathering systems and wells online are understood; coordinating and supporting satisfaction of requirements to plan.
