Title:  Process Engineer - Naphtha Reforming.

Position Description:

We are seeking a specialized Process Engineer – Naphtha Reforming to join our Downstream Process Engineering Division under our Process & Control Systems Department.

Our Downstream Process Engineering Division is responsible for providing technical expertise in naphtha reforming technologies, including catalytic reforming, semi-regenerative reforming, and continuous catalyst regeneration (CCR), to support the development and optimization of reforming processes.

As a Reform Engineer you will be evaluating, enhancing, and troubleshooting reforming operations, process simulation software packages, such as HYSYS. You will effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams, including operations, maintenance, and engineering, in addition to identifying opportunities for improvement and implementing best practices.

Key Responsibilities:

As a successful candidate you will be required to perform the following:

• Develop, review, and implement process designs and operating parameters for naphtha reforming units.
• Evaluate and optimize reforming catalysts and technologies to improve efficiency, yield, and product quality.
• Provide technical support and guidance to operating facilities, including troubleshooting and resolving operational issues.
• Collaborate with technology licensors and vendors to evaluate and implement new technologies and innovations.
• Conduct process simulation studies to optimize reforming operations and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Author and present technical papers and reports on reforming technologies and best practices.
• Mentor and develop junior engineers and technicians to enhance their skills and knowledge in reforming technologies.

Minimum Requirements:

As a successful candidate you will hold a:

• Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering. Advanced degree is preferred but not required.
• Minimum of 10 years of experience in refinery or petrochemical operations and engineering, with a focus on naphtha reforming technologies with at least 5 years in CCR technologies and CCR operation.
• Experience with multiple operating facilities and process licensor technologies (UOP or Axens)
• Expertise in innovation and intellectual property development, holding patents in the field of naphtha reforming technologies.
• Proficiency in process simulation software packages, such as HYSYS.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex operational issues
