Structural Engineer

Accountable for the design, analysis, and integrity of all structural components for the deepwater project, including topsides, subsea structures, and foundations. The role ensures that all structural systems meet technical specifications, safety standards, project requirements, and regulatory compliance, while supporting construction, fabrication, and offshore installation activities.

Job Description:

1. Structural Design & Analysis

• Design and analyse structural elements for FPSO topsides, subsea structures, and foundations.
• Ensure structural designs comply with relevant codes, standards, and project specifications (e.g., API, ASME, DNV).

2. Structural Integrity & Safety

• Conduct structural integrity assessments, including load analysis, fatigue evaluation, stability checks, and environmental impact studies for deepwater conditions.
• Ensure all designs account for operational safety, stability, and performance under environmental and operational loads.

3. Collaboration & Coordination

• Work closely with multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical, marine, subsea) to ensure structural designs align with overall project requirements.
• Coordinate with contractors, fabricators, and installation teams to ensure proper fabrication and installation of structural components.

4. Quality Assurance & Compliance

• Ensure compliance with engineering standards, safety regulations, and quality control procedures throughout design, fabrication, and installation phases.
• Conduct site inspections, audits, and reviews to verify structural integrity and workmanship.

5. Troubleshooting & Problem-Solving

• Provide technical support during construction, fabrication, and offshore installation, resolving structural issues efficiently.
• Perform root-cause analysis and recommend corrective engineering solutions.

6. Quality Control

• Implement and monitor quality control processes for structural components.
• Conduct tests and inspections to ensure structural reliability and integrity.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering, or related discipline. A Master’s Degree in Structural Engineering or a related field is an advantage.
• Minimum 10 years’ experience in structural engineering within the oil and gas industry, preferably with deepwater projects.
• Proven experience in managing structural engineering projects from design through completion.
• Deep technical knowledge of offshore structural design, analysis, and integrity for FPSO, topsides, and subsea structures.
• Familiarity with engineering codes and standards (e.g., API, DNV, ASME, Eurocode).
• Understanding of marine and deepwater environmental conditions and their impact on structural integrity.
• Strong proficiency in structural analysis and design software (e.g., STAAD Pro, SACS, ANSYS).
• Excellent problem-solving, troubleshooting, and decision-making skills.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across multi-disciplinary teams and present technical information effectively.
• Experience in facility concept development, Pre-FEED, FEED, Detail engineering, CAPEX, Plan of Development and contract management
