  • Perform detailed technical review of commissioning deliverables related to instrumentation and control systems, including loop folders, instrument data sheets, hook-up drawings, control narratives, cause & effect charts, and system test procedures to ensure readiness for energization and functional testing.
  • Act as Company Witness for I&C pre-commissioning and commissioning activities such as loop checks, instrument calibration, logic verification, and functional testing, ensuring compliance with approved procedures and project acceptance criteria.
  • Verify correct installation, calibration, and range setting of field instruments (pressure, temperature, flow, level, analyzers), including impulse line integrity, manifold configuration, tubing installation, and instrument air quality prior to live commissioning.
  • Ensure ICSS/DCS/PLC systems are fully prepared for commissioning, including database loading, tag configuration, I/O allocation, controller redundancy validation, and verification of HMI graphics against as-built documentation.
