Job Description:
Description
Optimized Process Designs, LLC (OPD) is a name in the natural gas
industry that has become synonymous with quality design and
construction, competitive pricing, and on time delivery of
processing, treating, and compression facilities.
Incorporated in 1980, OPD is still managed by its original founders
whose reputation for honesty, integrity and technical excellence is
unmatched in the industry. Although generally thought of as a
smaller E & C firm, OPD has successfully completed several projects
in excess of \$500MM on a turnkey basis. In 1997, OPD became a Koch
Chemical Technology Group company, which further enhanced OPD's
reputation and increased its financial strength.
OPD has a key advantage in being able to supply construction
services, as well as engineering/procurement. This enables clients
to have a ''one stop shop'' for the overall project, providing
increased efficiency and avoiding potential interface problems.
OPD's industry experience, flexibility, and personal attention have
made us a preferred vendor with our clients. Our tight knit, highly
productive, team atmosphere makes OPD a great place to work. This
environment has allowed us to attract and maintain exceptional
employees and build long lasting client relationships, which will
help to ensure our long-term business success.
