Job description
**ZL Group — Muscat, Oman**
Full\-Time, Permanent \| Operations \| Reports to Operations Director \| 8–10 years experience
**About ZL Group**
ZL Group is a global specialty chemicals company serving the oil and gas industry, with operations in Canada, the United States, and Oman. In Oman, we deliver enhanced oil recovery chemical solutions, water treatment, and process facilities for major GCC operators, supported by our manufacturing plants in Sohar and Salalah.
**The Opportunity**
We are hiring a Facilities Engineer to provide process and facilities engineering leadership across project design, execution, commissioning, and field operations in Oman. You will be the in\-country technical anchor for our process engineering capability — leading HAZOP studies, reviewing engineering packages, supporting tenders, and mentoring the operations team.
This is a hands\-on technical role with real ownership: you will work directly with GCC operators, engineering partners, and our field crews on projects from design through startup.
**What You’ll Do**
* Provide process and facilities engineering support across ongoing and future projects.
* Review engineering designs, process documentation, and technical packages from engineering partners.
* Lead and facilitate HAZOP studies and risk assessments, and drive action closeout.
* Participate in factory acceptance testing (FAT), site acceptance testing (SAT), commissioning, and startup activities.
* Troubleshoot engineering and operational issues using systematic root\-cause analysis.
* Provide technical input and engineering reviews for tenders and client proposals.
* Develop and maintain Standard Operating Procedures and engineering documentation standards.
* Mentor junior engineers, operators, and field personnel, and deliver technical training.
**What You’ll Bring**
* Bachelor’s degree in Chemical, Process, Mechanical, or Petroleum Engineering, or a related discipline.
* Minimum 8–10 years in process or facilities engineering — production facilities, water treatment, EOR, or oil and gas operations.
* Demonstrated experience taking complex engineering projects from design through startup and operation.
* Proven experience leading or facilitating HAZOP reviews.
* Experience developing SOPs, work instructions, and operational documentation.
* Strong communication skills across engineering teams, clients, and field personnel.
* Ability to influence technical decisions and drive organizational improvement.
* Experience working with GCC operators and clients.
**Nice to Have**
* Advanced degree in an engineering discipline.
* Background in enhanced oil recovery, produced water management, or oilfield chemical applications.
**Why Join Us**
* High\-visibility technical role with direct client exposure across major GCC projects.
* Broad scope spanning design, commissioning, operations, and tendering — not a narrow desk role.
* Opportunity to build and standardize engineering practice for a growing in\-country team.
* Global specialty chemicals business with a strong regional manufacturing footprint.
