We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

Key Responsibilities

The role involves providing expert corrosion and materials engineering support for oil and gas projects, both onshore and offshore. The candidate will focus on corrosion control, risk-based inspection (RBI), chemical injection programs, damage mechanism assessment, and ensuring the integrity and longevity of fixed equipment. The individual will work closely with other teams remotely to optimize corrosion and inspection processes, conduct fitness-for-service assessments, and support life extension studies.

This role involves guiding corrosion control and mitigation strategies while supporting integrity programs for offshore and onshore gas facilities. It demands expertise in corrosion loop development, damage mechanisms, and standards like API 571 and 584. Proficiency in industry codes (API, ASME, NACE) and experience in Oil & Gas, Refinery, Petrochemical, and Chemical sectors is appreciated.

Expectations

• Provide guidance on corrosion control, mitigation methods, and support the timely implementation of integrity programs for offshore and onshore gas facilities.
• Identify corrosion issues, determine root causes, and implement prevention strategies.
• Experience in systemization, corrosion loop development, and piping circuit development.
• Expertise in damage mechanisms in refinery and petrochemical industries.
• Proficient in corrosion review, damage mechanism assignment (API 571), corrosion rate estimation, and integrity operating windows (API 584).
• Skilled in collecting operational, design, and corrosion data for RBI/Mechanical Integrity Management.

Thorough knowledge of ASME codes, API standards (510, 570, 571, 580, 653), NACE documents, and industry best practices

Key Job Accountabilities

• Material Selection & Corrosion Control: Experience in developing key deliverables like corrosion control philosophies and integrity operating windows.
• Data Accuracy in Damage Mechanisms: Ability to ensure data accuracy for damage mechanisms through collaboration with inspection datasets and corrosion monitoring.
• Corrosion Mitigation Techniques: Expertise in corrosion mitigation based on fluid chemistry, corrosion inhibitors, metallurgy, operating environments, and degradation mechanisms.
• Corrosion Management Audits: Involvement in auditing corrosion management strategies and collaborating with vendors to optimize chemical injection and monitoring programs.
• Technology Implementation: Ability to identify, evaluate, and implement new technologies for improved corrosion control and integrity management.
• Contract Management: Skills in preparing and maintaining short- and long-term corrosion mitigation contracts.
• Chemical Treatment Optimization: Expertise in monitoring chemical treatment programs and recommending cost-effective optimizations.
• Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA): Participation in RCFA, incident investigations, and safety reviews (HAZOPs, HAZIDs, risk assessments).
• Technical Recommendations: Proven ability to generate technical recommendations and support their implementation until successful completion.
• Application of Onshore/Offshore Practices: Experience in applying recognized engineering practices for corrosion mitigation in both onshore and offshore environments.
• Interpersonal & Leadership Skills: Strong interpersonal skills for working across disciplines, providing technical advice, and mentoring emerging engineers.
