Employee Type:

If you have a strong foundation in engineering understand the needs of natural gas transmission business and of general operations needs and strategies our team wants you on our side!

Enbridge is hiring an Engineer III (Capacity Planning) who will be responsible for calculating daily natural gas operational capacities for all locations on Enbridges US Gas Transmission and Midstream (GTM) assets.

The successful candidate will plan outages and the timing in order to minimize impact to customers and determine optimal pipeline configurations.

The role will have exposure to applying hydraulic simulation models and engineering calculation tools to determine natural gas pipeline capacities for assigned US pipeline systems.

If this sounds exciting dont wait apply today! Wed love to hear from you. #joinourteam

What You Will Do:

• Apply hydraulic simulation models and engineering calculation tools to determine natural gas pipeline capacities for assigned US pipeline systems

• Evaluate numerous parameters to work towards optimal ways of flowing gas to support planned & unplanned outages.

• Forecast and post system capacities using hydraulic models at least one month in advance and re-evaluate capacities as outage plans change.

• Learn to identify opportunities to re-schedule overlapping outages to minimize customer impact.

• Post system capacities internally and externally for each location for your assigned pipelines for every day.

• Monitor outage plans to ensure that the corresponding capacities are correctly posted.

• Communicate model results to collaborators. Create write and present summary reports which contain pipeline data and modeling results in a clear & concise way such that other teams can easily understand study results and make appropriate decisions.
