Plan/review 3D modeling using E3D/S3D for mechanical, safety, soft volumes, escape and transport routes, access and material handling routes, equipment modeling, package modeling with required TP points, piping, and pipe supports.
Familiar with offshore facilities platforms and FPSO layout design, material handling, piping/pipe support design, safety requirements, conducting 3D model reviews, and weight management as per the project requirements.
Effectively manage design changes and provide appropriate solutions as needed during project execution.
Coordinate with other discipline design teams to achieve optimal use of the 3D modeling space and minimize last-minute changes to the design.
Liaise closely with the pipe stress team to acquire inputs for finalizing the pipe routing and pipe support locations and types.
Review vendor drawings for static equipment/rotating equipment/packages and ensure all nozzle orientations and vessel cleat support requirements are in line with design requirements.
Perform/check weight management studies for piping and prepare and issue piping weight control reports.
Assist the Lead Engineer with the quality plan for layout/piping design, preparing plans and schedules, estimates, progress measurement, weight control reports, and contribute to technical presentations and write-ups.
Job Requirements:
Degree in Mechanical Engineering, with exposure to piping layout design and weight concepts.
Minimum 15 years of experience.
Familiar with offshore/FPSO piping layout, support, and weight management concepts.
Able to work independently with minimal guidance, and coordinate well with the piping materials and stress teams, as well as other disciplines.
Hands-on exposure to the E3D/S3D suite of applications, including MDS.
Capable of leading and guiding a team of Piping/MDS Designers on assigned areas/sub-areas.
Experience as a Piping Weight Management Specialist and issuing piping weight control reports.
Experience in similar-sized offshore platform/FPSO projects.
Expertise in offshore platform/FPSO piping and support design and weight management.
