Job Purpose
Coordinate the technical design, installation, and inspection of piping (Plant) systems associated with pipeline construction facilities, review technical deliverables, and provide guidance and support to piping engineers. Ensure compliance with industry standards, project specifications, and regulatory requirements while contributing to safe, efficient, and high-quality piping (Plant) engineering throughout the project lifecycle.
Job Duties
Piping Engineering Activities
- Contribute to the development of piping (Plant) design requirements for pipeline facilities, including valve stations, pump stations, scraper/launcher stations, and associated aboveground and underground piping systems.
- Coordinate and review feasibility studies, piping layout considerations, constructability assessments, and associated engineering risks to support project decision-making.
- Coordinate piping system design under the direction of the Construction Manager/ Project Manager, including routing development, isometric preparation review, pipe support design, and line designation in accordance with project requirements.
- Prepare and review piping engineering deliverables such as plot plans, piping layouts, isometric drawings, MTOs, piping specifications, and fabrication documents.
- Support construction teams by clarifying piping design requirements and addressing engineering queries during fabrication, installation, and hydrotesting activities.
- Participate in inspections, dimensional checks, welding fit-up verifications, and quality control activities to ensure piping works comply with design standards and technical specifications.
- Review piping stress analysis reports and support implementation of stress-related design adjustments, ensuring adequate flexibility, support, and code compliance.
- Support piping integrity assessments and contribute to recommendations related to piping repairs, rerouting, or reinforcement measures.
- Lead on the development and implementation of preventive maintenance programs for piping systems associated with pipeline facilities.
- Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams (Pipeline, Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, I&C, QA/QC, Procurement, Operations) to resolve piping-related technical issues and ensure smooth project execution.
- Participate in technical bid evaluations, vendor/subcontractor document reviews, FAT/SAT activities related to skid packages, and piping engineering workshops (constructability reviews, HAZID).
- Stay updated with industry advancements, codes, and regulations related to pipeline design, construction, and maintenance.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Piping Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Minimum of 810 years of piping engineering experience in Oil & Gas projects, with strong exposure to piping (Plant) & pipeline construction.
- In-Depth Knowledge of Piping Design Codes, Standards, and Regulations.
- Proficiency in piping design tools, loop design software, and system integration tools.
- Strong understanding of piping materials, fabrication processes, welding requirements, hydrotesting procedures, and piping installation practices.
- Ability to interpret piping drawings, isometrics, P&IDs, stress reports, and technical specifications.
