Pressure System Engineer

Description

• Perform (preferred), review or approve engineering calculations and/or work with the AP Engineering Organization and 3rd party engineering contractors to implement design changes to pressure vessels and piping.
• The Pressure Systems Engineer will work closely with other Pressure Systems Engineers, Inspectors, Plant Management, Maintenance teams, Project and others as required. The day-to-day priorities will be set in agreement with the Manager Pressure Systems.
• Perform (preferred), review or approve engineering calculations and/or work with the AP Engineering Organization for equipment modifications and fitness for service evaluations.
• Recommend and provide guidance on existing and new technologies associated with the inspection of pressurized systems (e.g. Advanced Ultrasonics, Shear Wave, Eddy Current, Acoustic Emissions, drone use) to enhance the cost-effective way in which the mechanical integrity of the plant is maintained.
• Provide design engineering support for Pressure System equipment including development of technical specification, review of mechanical strength calculation and fabrication drawing.
• Develop repair procedures and inspection/test plans for inspection, modifications, repairs, fabrication and installation of pressure equipment. Resolve inspection findings in a way that supports plant availability whilst achieving regulatory compliance and maintaining safety. Where necessary, travel to site to retrieve design data, support execution, plant outages and shutdowns
• Perform end of life assessments and failure investigations. Resolve any issues associated with pressure systems equipment in operating facilities and participate in failure/root cause investigations. As required, implement recommendations and corrective actions.
• Develop Mechanical Integrity Program for periodic inspections that ensures safe, regulatory compliant, reliable and efficient operation. This includes assessing deterioration and failure mechanisms and developing inspection strategies for pressure equipment and liaise with local authorities.

Requirements

• European travel will be required.
• A good understanding of inspection requirements according UK and other European regulations
• Working knowledge of Pressure Vessel & Piping (e.g. ASME, RToD, EN, GB and ANSI) codes for design, inspection, and repair.
• Sufficient experience working with an oil and gas, chemical or power company (specific experience on Pressure Systems in Oil&Gas/ Chem/Air Separation/ Power industries and working in a Pressure Systems or Inspection or design department would be an advantage).
• Have current driving licence and passport
• Bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.
• Good written, verbal and interpersonal communication skills in English across all levels.
