Rigid Manager

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 manage, 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.

During project execution, the OneRigid Lead will be accountable towards the PEM for the design and engineering of the full rigid pipeline subsystem solution, including installation engineering through the R-Lay VDT.

During project execution, the OneRigid Lead will be accountable towards the Rigid Package for the cost and schedule of engineering deliverables requested by the contract and required internally to pursue engineering of procured items and subcontracted services, Spool Base fabrication engineering as well as to enable the commencement in due time of procurement, subcontracting and fabrication activities associated to rigid pipelines.

Mitigation and reduction of technical risks exposure

You are meant for this job if:

Degree in 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 behavior to a range of specific and general pipeline design issues, including but not limited to: pipeline mechanical design and design and/or in-service behavior as well as the integrated design/engineering requirements to cater for fabrication and installation in the Engineering phase.

Demonstrates schedule management skills: Elaboration and follow-up of resourced planning is key to successfully deliver scope where multiple disciplines, interfaces and links are involved.

Experience in Reel-lay, S-lay and/or J-lay.

Good technical understanding and experience of rigid pipeline design.

Communication skills to client  IVBs.

Ability to adapt to change and circumstances, good schedule and budget control.
