Primary Functions/Responsibilities:

• Develop basis of design, completion philosophy, schematics and detailed execution programs.
• Develop sand-control solutions, including sanding risk assessment, sand-control method selection, screen sizing, laboratory qualification testing.
• Design upper and lower completions, including tubing, packers, downhole safety valves, gauges, flow-control equipment and sand-control systems.
• Perform completion engineering analyses, including tubing stress, hydraulics, torque-and-drag, and inflow performance evaluations.
• Define completion fluids, displacement programs, cleanup, stimulation requirements.
• Develop well unloading, flowback, production startup, and intervention strategies throughout the well life cycle.
• Ensure compatibility between the completion, tubing hanger, subsea tree, wellhead, controls and intervention systems.
• Develop installation procedures, operational contingencies, barrier diagrams and detailed risk assessments.
• Lead technical reviews, peer assists, DWOPs. CWOPs, and readiness reviews.
• Ensure regulatory approvals, equipment, services and long-lead materials are available when required.
• Prepare cost estimates, schedules and contracting strategies; monitor expenditure and operational performance.
• Prepare technical specifications and support tendering, bid evaluation, supplier qualification, FAT and SIT activities.
• Coordinate service companies and verify compliance with approved programs, contracts and HSE requirements.
• Track NPT, equipment reliability and completion performance; prepare end-of-well reports and capture lessons learned.
• Provide real-time engineering support during offshore completion operations and resolve technical or operational problems.
• Support well handover, startup, integrity management and future intervention planning.
• Mentor junior engineers and promote consistent application of completions engineering practices.

HSE Roles:

• Comply with HSE policies, Life Saving Rules, procedures, goals, and programs within the MBU HSE Management System.
• Actively engage in and contribute to HSE communication and consultation processes.
