You will be working closely together with very skilled and experienced structural engineers, with many interesting projects such as structural reanalysis (SRS), inspection planning (IP), design life extension (DLE) of offshore jackets, topsides and riser systems and design of onshore process facilities.

Your Responsibilities as Structural Engineer

• Perform structural reliability analyses for offshore structures, including jackets, topsides, risers, and related structural systems.
• Apply probability-based methods to assess structural safety, remaining lifetime, and risk-informed decision-making.
• Contribute to development and use of reliability models for ultimate limit state, fatigue limit state, accidental limit state, and serviceability assessments.
• Evaluate uncertainties related to loads, resistance, degradation mechanisms, inspection data, and structural performance.
• Support inspection planning and risk-based maintenance strategies using reliability-based approaches.
• Carry out advanced structural analyses, including linear and non-linear global analyses, fatigue assessments, and dynamic response evaluations.
• Integrate structural health monitoring data into reliability assessments and digital twin applications.
• Prepare technical reports, calculation notes, and documentation for clients and authorities.
