Squamish
Project The Woodfibre LNG Project is located approximately 7 km west-southwest of Squamish, British Columbia. It involves the construction and operation of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility on the previous Woodfibre pulp mill site, which would have a storage capacity of 250,000 m3 and would produce approximately 2.1 million tons per year of LNG.
Woodfibre Management Ltd. is a privately held Canadian company based in Vancouver and a subsidiary of Pacific Energy Corporation Limited.
Position The Preservation and Project Flawless Coordinator is an integral part of Woodfibre LNG's energetic team. This role reports to the Commissioning Manager, will be responsible for safeguarding all project‑critical equipment and systems from deterioration during fabrication, transport, storage, installation, and pre‑commissioning. Concurrently, the role drives Project Flawless philosophy across procurement, construction, and commissioning to eliminate defects before they reach site. The role is execution‑heavy, discipline‑agnostic, and central to avoiding costly rework, schedule delays, and warranty disputes.
Key Responsibilities The successful applicant will conduct:
Preservation
Preservation Management (Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Static & Rotating Equipment)
Ensure the EPC contractor has an effective Preservation Execution Plan, aligned with vendor manuals, OEM data sheets, and contract requirements
Validate the correctness of detailed Preservation Checklists for all equipment classes (pumps, compressors, turbines, switchgear, MCCs, analyzers, instruments, valves, tanks, vessels, skids, packages)
Ensure and provide oversight of the Preservation Matrix across procurement, construction, and commissioning
Implement Tag‑based preservation tracking integrated into materials management (e.g. project‑specific CMS)
Define preservation intervals (7‑day, 30‑day, etc.) and ensure discipline teams perform required activities
Supervise application of desiccants, purging, blinds, oil misting, nitrogen blanket, rotating equipment turning, etc
Ensure correct preservation is applied through warehouse and laydown yards
Conduct routine preservation audits of site temporary fabrication yards, warehouses, subcontractor facilities, and site storage yards
Oversee preservation during transit, lifting, installation, ensuring that rigging and handling do not breach OEM requirements
Ensure proper preservation of electrical systems (space heaters, humidity control, insulation tests repeated on defined intervals)
Ensure that EPC contractor correctly manages temporary power, climate control, and HVAC where environmental exposure (dust, salt, humidity, heat) threatens equipment integrity
Lead re‑preservation activities prior to system walkdowns, turnover, and commissioning
Provide Company sign off on preservation punch lists and ensure closure before subsystem handover
Project Flawless Coordination
Implement Flawless Project Delivery (FPD) across fabrication, construction, and commissioning
Coordinate structured Flawless Reviews:
design phase reviews, operations input, readiness reviews, vendor FAT/SAT oversight
Maintain and track the Flawless Action Register (FAR) ensuring responsible discipline owners close actions on time
Drive Defect Elimination Culture—behaviors, discipline ownership, accountability
Facilitate Lessons Learned workshops and ensure actionable items are integrated into the project
Monitor Critical Equipment Readiness, ensuring all preservation and quality hold points are met before energization or commissioning
Implement Early Engagement with Operations to ensure maintainability, operability, and commissioning logic are validated
Conduct Defect & Punchlist Prevention Workshops targeting high‑risk systems (utilities, power, rotating machinery, control systems)
Ensure EPC Contractor tracks system readiness using A‑B‑C turnover philosophy, ensuring no late discoveries prior to MC and RFC
Support RAM, SIL, HF, PSSR, HAZOP/HAZID integration to ensure safety conclusions are implemented in design and field execution
Act as the interface coordinator across QA/QC, construction, and commissioning for all Flawless issues
Interface & Controls
Coordinate with engineering, procurement, logistics, warehouse, fabrication yards, construction, and commissioning to ensure preservation requirements are embedded throughout
Ensure EPC Contractor properly manages preservation records into Mechanical Completion systems (PIMS, Go‑Completions, Hexagon, etc.)
Ensure all vendors provide Preservation Certificates, data sheets, and preservation summary reports prior to acceptance
Oversee preservation during delays, ensuring long‑lea
