<h4>Context and environment</h4>
<p>Basrah Oil Company (BOC) is undertaking the Seawater Treatment Facilities (STF) project to provide treated seawater to the oil fields in southern Iraq (for injection). The STF will be located on the west side of the Khor Al Zubair, upstream of the port of Umm Qasr and will have the following key components:</p>
<ul>
<li>Site development and non-process facilities.</li>
<li>Ancillaries and buildings.</li>
<li>Seawater intake and outfall structures.</li>
<li>Material off-loading facility.</li>
<li>Seawater clarification, filtration and deoxygenating processes.</li>
<li>Chemical addition systems.</li>
<li>Shipping pumps.</li>
<li>Power generation.</li>
<li>Utilities.</li>
</ul>
<p>FEED was completed (June 2016) with Phase 1 capacity of 7.5 million barrels of water per day (MMBWPD) of treated seawater, with a subsequent Phase 2 of 5 MMBWPD for a total buildout capacity of 12.5 MMBWPD. The project was placed on hold upon the completion of FEED.</p>
<p>In 2018 BOC launched a call for tender on the FEED, but instructed bidders to reduce capacity to 5.0 MMBWPD, with provision for a future addition of 2.5 MMBWPD for a total build-out phase of 7.5 MMBWPD.</p>
<h4>Accountabilities</h4>
<p>Accountable for the interfaces and management of change (MoC), being internal (between units, disciplines, PMT, One Tech and specialists) or external (between other CSSP projects, contractors, company, etc.). The job holder coordinates all interface and MoC matters, protecting the WI Project and company’s position with regards to all external interfaces and to internal interfaces between contractors, and ensuring that changes are evaluated and executed for the overall benefit of the project.</p>
<p>Accordingly, the job holder shall make the necessary coordination between all involved contractors/parties and company teams and implement an agreed interface management procedure and methodology. He/she shall ensure the proper and timely follow-up and resolution of interface issues between the various involved parties documents. He/she must support the Interface Manager to ensure full control of the Management of Change process, and shall document all the changes, taking care to perform a full review with various disciplines with project aspects to justify or reject the change.</p>
<p>A key aspect of interface coordination is the ability to effectively communicate, across all involved parties, all details related to an interface, including requirements, technical specifications, and potential issues. It is important that the communication channel is promptly established, the proper information is exchanged, and all involved parties acknowledge that they fully understand the interface requirements.</p>
<p>The nature of the development might call for a “staged” delivery of the facilities. Simultaneous activities between construction activities and operations activities can occur to meet the agreed schedule.</p>
<h4>Qualification</h4>
<ul>
<li>Degree in engineering.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Experience</h4>
<ul>
<li>15 years of relevant experience in industrial projects.</li>
<li>A sound multi-discipline technical background complemented by a sound knowledge on onshore surveys campaigns and civil works experience.</li>
<li>Very good communication and interpersonal skills and capacity to work in a “transverse” organisation.</li>
<li>Mastering English is a must, knowledge of French and Arabic is a plus.</li>
