We have the expertise to carry out full EPC&M services for electrical and instrumentation works and bring our intrinsic knowledge to measure and automate exploration, production, separation, refining processes, and distribution through our localized services

Job Description

• Review and understand approved drawings, specifications, Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs), welding procedure specifications (WPS/PQR), and painting/coating procedures before starting inspection activities.
• Verify welder and welding operator qualifications (WPQ), continuity records, and validity of certifications before allowing welding.
• Check material identification and traceability, including pipes, fittings, flanges, plates, structural sections, and consumables, against MTCs and project specifications.
• Inspect joint fit-up, alignment, cleanliness, bevel preparation, gap, and root opening prior to welding.
• Monitor welding in progress, including preheat, interpass temperature, welding parameters, consumable control (baking, storage, issue), shielding gas, and compliance with the approved WPS.
• Carry out visual inspection of completed welds and verify compliance with acceptance criteria (e.g., ASME B31.3, ASME IX, AWS D1.1, API 1104, as applicable).
• Maintain weld maps, weld logs, welder performance records, and joint traceability.
• Coordinate NDT activities (RT, UT, MT, PT, PMI, hardness testing, ferrite testing) with NDT contractors, review reports and radiographs, and follow up on repairs and re-tests.
• Witness post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) and review heat treatment charts and records.
• Witness and verify hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure tests in coordination with the piping and commissioning teams.
• Verify weld repair procedures, repair rates, and welder performance, and recommend corrective actions or welder re-qualification where needed.
• Inspect surface preparation prior to coating, including cleanliness grade, surface profile, soluble salts, dust, and ambient conditions (dew point, relative humidity, surface and air temperature).
• Verify paint materials, batch numbers, shelf life, mixing, thinning, pot life, and storage conditions against the manufacturer's data sheets and approved coating system.
• Measure and record wet film thickness (WFT) and dry film thickness (DFT) on each coat, and check for defects such as runs, sags, pinholes, holidays, and poor adhesion.
• Perform holiday detection (spark testing) and adhesion testing on coatings, linings, and buried or underground lines as required.
• Inspect passive fire protection, insulation, and field joint coating works where applicable.
• Carry out multidiscipline QC inspections, as assigned, on fabrication, erection, installation, and pre-commissioning activities in line with the project ITPs.
