The IMA Gas Field Development Project aims to develop 1.28 TCF of gas through a 4-slot shallow water conductor-supported well-head platform in 8–10m of water, producing 380 MMsfcd at plateau. Production fluid will be transported through an 18” x 15km subsea and 18” x 7km onshore pipeline system to the onshore dehydration system at the NEPL/WAGL-owned Bonny NAG plant, situated within the Renaissance-operated Bonny Oil and Gas Terminal.

Liaising with metering specialists to ensure fiscal and operational metering systems are fit-for-purpose. Reviewing and validating PLC, ESD, SCADA, RTU systems, and HMI Configurations.

Verifying implementation of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIF, ESD Logic, Shutdown Sequences, and Cause and Effect Logic) and ensuring compliance with IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 requirements. Reviewing Fire and Gas (F&G) system design and ensuring adequate coverage for the wellhead platform and brownfield packages.

Positioning — Your cover letter must answer one question: why YOU for THIS specific role right NOW? Avoid generic templates — one sentence on what you specifically bring beats three generic paragraphs.

Field competencies — Detail your on-site experience: conditions managed, equipment mastered, safety standards applied. A portfolio of technical drawings/reports concretely proves your skills.

  • Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
