Project Engineer – Midstream Facilities Projects

Location: Calgary, AB Term: 1‑year contract Client: Key owner midstream operator Experience: 10–15 years in midstream facilities

Role Overview

The Project Engineer supports a 1‑year contract with a major midstream owner in Calgary, providing engineering leadership across brownfield and capital facility projects.

The role focuses on fractionation, NGL processing, stabilization, storage, utilities, and facility infrastructure, with heavy interface across operations, EPC/EPCM engineering teams, construction, equipment packagers, and module yards. The Project Engineer ensures design integrity, operability, constructability, and safe execution throughout the project lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

Facilities Project Engineering Lead engineering coordination for midstream fractionation systems (de‑ethanizer, de‑propanizer, de‑butanizer, stabilizers). Support engineering for NGL processing, condensate handling, storage, blending, and utility systems. Review and approve engineering deliverables (PFDs, P&IDs, datasheets, specifications, vendor packages) as a licensed P.Eng. Develop scopes of work, cost estimates, schedules, and risk assessments for facility modifications.

EPC/EPCM & Vendor Interface Coordinate with EPC/EPCM engineering teams to ensure alignment with facility requirements and operational constraints. Participate in design reviews, HAZOPs, 3D model reviews, and constructability assessments. Engage with equipment packagers for package integration, technical clarifications, and performance expectations.

Construction & Module Yard Support Provide field engineering support to construction teams, including RFI resolution and technical guidance. Participate in module yard inspections, FAT/SAT, and package acceptance. Conduct MC/SC walkdowns, punchlist development, and turnover documentation.

Commissioning & Start‑Up Support Review commissioning procedures, temporary system requirements, and start‑up sequencing. Provide engineering support during pre‑commissioning, commissioning, and system handover. Ensure operability, safety, and compliance with midstream facility standards.

Qualifications

Active P.Eng (APEGA) — mandatory. Engineering degree in Mechanical, Process, Chemical, or related discipline. 10–15 years of experience in midstream facility projects (fractionation, NGL, stabilization, storage, utilities). Strong understanding of fractionation towers, stabilizers, reboilers, condensers, pumps, tanks, and utility systems. Demonstrated experience working with EPC/EPCM firms, construction teams, and vendor package suppliers. Experience with brownfield facility modifications, tie‑ins, and integration into operating assets. Strong communication and stakeholder‑management skills.
