Rigid Pipe Lead
Aberdeen, GB
Job Purpose
Coordination of all scopes relating to rigid pipeline engineering on either a study, tender or project.
Job Description
- Within the context of a project or a tender, the OneRigid Lead is expected to coordinate, on behalf of the project team, all aspects associated with rigid pipeline engineering, including engineering input to / from fabrication and installation (constrains, limitation, envelope…) which might affect the overall engineered rigid pipeline performance as a sub-system (installed and tested as per industry / customers’ requirements). This includes, but is not limited to:
-
- Recommendation of the technology / most cost-effective pipeline system solution to be selected to tender/project.
- Ensuring all in-place and mechanical design aspects of the pipeline subsystem is optimised and communicated as input to a project’s installation / offshore fabrication strategy on a tender
- Dimensioning of rigid pipeline solution and in-field inputs to MTO.
- Assurance of a robust in-service design.
- Providing Engineering inputs required for the procurement and fabrication of the rigid pipeline scope.
- Coordination of the technical support of rigid-related equipment as procured by project (PDM), which is responsible to ensure that all subsystem components will be delivered at Spoolbase at the planned dates.
- Engineering support to VDT as required for a safe and efficient offshore deployment of the rigid pipeline products.
- Interface with Client and IVBs on all Rigid Pipeline Engineering topics.
- Ownership of engineering activities CTRs, Quality of Deliverables and Schedule.
You are meant for this job if:
- Holding a high-quality honours degree or equivalent in a relevant field of engineering such as Mechanical, Naval or Civil Engineering with solid knowledge of materials (metallic and plastic).
- Good level of relevant experience and /or understanding of; application of engineering theory of rigid pipeline behaviour to a range of specific and general pipeline design issues, including but not limited to: pipeline mechanical design and design and/or in-service behaviour as well as the integrated design/engineering requirements to cater for fabrication and installation in the Engineering phase.
- Demonstrate the following competencies on a consistent basis:
Additional Skills
- Experience in Reel-lay, S-lay and/or J-lay.
- Operational project experience from other phases such as fabrication, installation and commissioning.
- Good awareness / experience of interfacing with other disciplines taking part in execution of a SURF scope.
- Scheduling and costing appreciation of scopes
- Example of past differentiation or innovation which help lowering the risk, cost or schedule of a design or operation.
