Downstream Process Engineer

Downstream Process Engineers design, optimize, and troubleshoot refinery and petrochemical plant processes including distillation, cracking, hydrotreating, and reforming units, applying chemical engineering principles to maximize yield, energy efficiency, and product quality. They perform process simulations, develop operating procedures, support capital projects, and manage process safety. Major MENA refineries (Aramco, ADNOC, Kuwait National Petroleum) employ large process engineering teams managing some of the world's largest refining complexes.
