  • Prepare and review process flow diagrams and piping and instrumentation diagrams, size equipment, and conduct hazard identification, hazard and operability studies, and layers of protection analysis.
  • Select, assess, and qualify carbon capture, utilization, and storage technologies, including amine scrubbing, oxyfuel, membranes, and adsorption and absorption; model heat and material balances and heat integration.
  • Advise customers on technology-neutral solutions from initial concept through implementation.
  • Manage interfaces with authorities, suppliers, and transport and storage partners, such as pipeline, liquefied natural gas, and mineralization partners.
  • Contribute to bidding processes, technology assessments, techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment analyses, and capital expenditure and operational expenditure estimates.
