The TILENGA Project is a key project for TotalEnergies as it is its first major petroleum investment in Uganda.
TILENGA project is an onshore and offshore (Lake Water Abstraction) project development comprising:
• 31 Well pads and the upstream gathering network including flowlines and trunklines. 80 km of Right of Way, 170 km of buried pipelines: Oil / Water injection / Electrical cable, optic fiber, crossing the Nile River
• Upgrading or Construction of access roads to the well pads
• Industrial Area including an upstream Central Processing Facility (CPF) / Construction and Operation camps / Drilling, Construction, and operation support base
• Lake Water Abstraction station
• Upgrading of road and existing Bugungu Airstrip, construction of access road to the facilities. Production Data: 200 Mstb/day of oil Reporting line in organization IA Superintendent SOUTH
Activities
•Preparation of construction activities
• To check the engineering documents, in his discipline, prepared by the contractor and to give timely comments on and/or approval of, in accordance with contract procedures and requirements.
• To check the incorporation of such comments by the contractor.
• To participate in technical reviews.
• To ensure that all risks are well anticipated and reduced as much as possible by the contractor.
• Control of the contractor during construction activities
• To ensure that the quality of the piping erection work (other than weld acceptance) performed on site by the contractor and subcontractors complies with contract requirements.
• To ensure that EPC contractor QHSE practices are acceptable, and that appropriate measures and procedures are being implemented by everyone concerned.
• To ensure that, for his discipline and area, the quality assurance record books are properly documented and maintained by the contractor.
• To assess any requests by the contractor to deviate from quality control procedures or requirements and to make appropriate recommendation to the Pipeline Spread Senior Superintendent.
• To participate in weekly, monthly and ad-hoc meetings with the contractor.
Reporting
• To report on any problem encountered in his discipline to the Piping & Vessel Engineer.
• To prepare the daily report in his discipline.
• (To organize efficient communication with his back-to-back replacement).
Context and environment
Green Field Project, Tilenga is a remote location in UGANDA near Albert Lake with sensitive environmental conditions. Huge onshore challenging project: heavy and waxy oils produced from 31 drilling pads, (with some of them located in a national park) and treated in a Production Center of 200,000bopd oil capacity and 650,000 bld of water treatment capacity. Reservoir pressure maintenance is ensured either by water injection or by polymer water injection depending on the reservoirs characteristics. The project also includes an extended interconnecting network with temperature preservation. Multicultural environment: Contractors are anticipated to be located in various parts of the world. Ugandan rules and regulations, administrative requirements and technical authorizations as well as international codes for onshore plant will apply. The project is at construction phase and aims for a Ready for Start-up (RFSU) target in 2026.
Accountabilities
•To review the ICAPS status index related to his discipline in collaboration with his construction team and commissioning team including ICAPS coordinator.
•To verify all check and test sheet are properly populated into ICAPS, perform gap analysis between MDR mechanical completion system and Totalenergies mechanical completion system ICAPS to highlight any deviation to the GS EP EXP 101,103 and 105 as per contract.
•Collaborate and challenge contractor in relation to test pack, line walk, hydrotest, reinstatement and flange management in line GS EP EXP 101,103 and 105.
•According to the sub-system delivery skyline, you ensure adequate execution to meet mechanical completion objectives in order to avoid any delay or impact on the Ready for commissioning skyline. Highlight to Industrial Area superintendent any potential inconsistencies between precomissioning and commissioning sequences. To ensure that the quality of the piping and vessels erection work (other than weld acceptance) performed on site by the contractor and sub-contractors complies with contract requirements.
•Liaise with all the Superintendents and Supervisors to make sure that the construction complies with all Project Design Documentation, with Company Standards and Procedures, and with applicable international Codes, Standards and Practices.
• Demonstrate personal commitment to the HSE Policy, maintain awareness of and ensure compliance with all relevant Statutory and Company HSE standards, actively participate in Company safety awareness and initiative schemes •Create an environment in which a focus on value awareness is developed and constantly think in terms of cost/benefit trade-off.
