Senior Project Scheduler

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Project Scheduler to support a major NGL fractionation and crude acclimation growth project within a live midstream oil and gas operating environment. This role will focus specifically on commissioning, startup, and turnaround scheduling activities following construction completion.

This is a high-visibility project tied to one of the organization’s key growth initiatives, requiring a scheduler who can quickly integrate into a cross-functional team and establish strong working relationships with project leadership, operations, and engineering stakeholders.

Construction execution is being managed by a third-party contractor; this role will be responsible for post-construction commissioning and startup scheduling coordination.

• Coordinate closely with project leadership, operations teams, engineering, and construction contractors to ensure seamless transition from construction to operations.
• Support planning and sequencing of NGL fractionation facility startup activities.
• Perform critical path analysis, schedule forecasting, and risk identification.
• Integrate multiple stakeholder inputs into a cohesive, executable commissioning schedule.
• Track progress against baseline schedules and provide accurate reporting and updates to project management.
• Support turnaround planning and execution activities as needed.
• Conduct frequent site engagement and participate in onsite coordination meetings to ensure schedule alignment.
• Build strong working relationships with key project stakeholders to establish trust and alignment early in the project lifecycle.

• 10–15+ years of overall project scheduling experience in oil & gas or industrial environments.
• Minimum 5+ years of direct experience supporting major oil & gas facility projects (midstream strongly preferred).
• Direct experience with NGL fractionation facilities or gas processing plants is required.
• Strong background in commissioning, startup, and/or turnaround (TAR) scheduling.
• Expert-level proficiency in Oracle Primavera (P6 or Primavera Cloud).
• Proven experience working in large, complex capital projects with multiple contractors and stakeholders.
• Strong understanding of plant operations, commissioning workflows, and turnover processes in midstream environments.

• Experience supporting crude acclimation or NGL fractionation expansion projects.
• EPC project exposure in midstream or refinery environments.
• Background working directly with operations teams during startup or turnaround phases.
• Experience in high-visibility growth or expansion projects within major energy companies.
