Specialist, Gas Planning (IGPA Department)

JOB PURPOSE

Develop and maintain long-term gas, NGL and associated product capacity, production and infrastructure plans for ADNOC Gas. Integrate upstream feed profiles, asset capabilities, project schedules and demand requirements into a single consistent long-term production plan that supports the Business Plan and enables reliable supply commitments across the gas value chain.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

• Consolidate and validate upstream feed gas profiles, associated gas volumes and new stream tie-ins from ADNOC Upstream and Group entities.
  u2022 Translate asset capacities, operating envelopes, turnaround and shutdown schedules and reliability assumptions into realistic forecasts.
  u2022 Develop long-term capacity and infrastructure plans, identifying where and when constraints will emerge.
  u2022 Perform long-term supply and demand balancing and support optimisation of molecule allocation across assets, products and customers.
  u2022 Quantify curtailment and production loss exposure and support mitigation options.
  u2022 Develop production and capacity scenarios and conduct sensitivity analysis on key planning assumptions.
  u2022 Maintain planning models, datasets and tools with full data integrity, version control and documented assumptions.

u2022 Develop Upstream profiles, project schedules and demand cases move continuously the plan must stay current without becoming unstable.
u2022 Reconciling conflicting inputs from Operations, Projects, Engineering, Marketing and Upstream into one agreed number.
u2022 Working at portfolio level while the deep technical bench sits in Engineering u2013 influence without ownership of that resource.
u2022 Balancing planning realism against commercial ambition when commitments are being made off the plan.
u2022 Establishing planning discipline in a newly formed department.

Be a single, trusted long-term production plan used by Finance, Marketing and Operations without parallel versions.
u2022 Improve forecast accuracy, evidenced through lookback and variance analysis.
u2022 Develop Clean, respected interfaces with Upstream, Engineering, Operations and Projects.
u2022 Aanalyse the Constraints and curtailment exposure surfaced early enough to act on.
