Process Engineering - Refining & Chemical Catalytic

As a successful candidate, you are expected to be able to perform the following:

• Review operations of process catalysts and absorbents by monitoring key performance indicators which include but not limited to product yields, deactivation rates, remaining life cycle, etc.
• Issue performance and bench marking reports high-lighting any performance gaps and recommendations for optimisation.
• Support process technology engineers on site in resolving any catalysts and absorbents performance gaps and implementation of optimisation initiatives.
• Be part of the Global Manufacturing technical team in providing technical advisory for catalyst and absorbents technical procurement package optimisation, catalyst techno-economic evaluation, selection, and review of performance guarantees in accordance with established company procedures.
• Support and coordinate with other internal stakeholders, when necessary, on the requirements to conduct catalyst pilot testing activities.
• Act as pool manager for managing emergency catalyst exchanges between assets, catalyst regeneration, re-use, metal reclamation and spent catalyst monetaisation in general.
• Maintain database of global manufacturing catalysts and absorbents detailing the technology providers, quantity, next loading forecasts, etc.
• Develop the hydro processing catalyst cascading road map across multiple assets in global manufacturing to maximise usage of both fresh and regenerated catalysts.
• Provide field support to catalyst related activities when needed such as loading & unloading, regeneration & rejuvenation, pre-sulfiding& activities, process optimisation, and troubleshooting, in collaboration with facility process engineers and other stakeholders.
• Manage precious metals used in catalysts, including leasing or reclamation processes, for wholly-owned assets and facilitate any metal pool synergy with Affiliates.
• Support the pilot testing or field demonstration of commercial catalysts and in-house development.
