Context:
Process Department is part of Project Operations Business Division (POP). It aims at providing Basic Engineering
Design Package (PDP) of various technologies (clean fuels, plastic, biofuels, etc.) or to support project department
in FEED (Front End Engineering Design) or EPF projects (Engineering, Construction, Fabrication) of modular units.
The intern will join the process engineering team of process department specializing in FEED and EPF execution
for modularized units. During this period, you will also work with OPEX (Operation Excellence) Department which
in charge of supporting POP divisions by developing new design tools.

Tasks and activities:

Main tasks can be summarized as:
- to develop practical tools to improve the execution of modular engineering projects. Your main responsibility
will be to design and develop Excel-based applications that facilitate detailed hydraulic calculations, line sizing,
and other key engineering tasks used during project execution,
- to collaborate closely with experienced process engineers to identify standardization opportunities and improve
efficiency through the automation and digitalization of routine calculations,
- to relay user feedback from process engineers to capture requirements and confirm solution adequacy,
- to test and validate your tools on an active project and assess their impact on project execution,
- to develop user guidelines to support the use of your tools,
- to perform training / webinar sessions to explain your tools to process engineers.
