DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES - Reports to the Principal Engineer and work under overall supervision of Head of Discipline (HOD).
- Responsible for materials and related corrosion engineering activities for the assigned Project / Enquiry.
- During Enquiry Phase, reviews material selection / corrosion risks assessment studies & other relevant documents including painting & coating requirements, etc. and verifies the correctness of material selection and corrosion control concepts as specified in the FEED documents.
- Prepares man-hours estimates for the project scope. Develops the man-hours norms, if required.
- Calculates and interprets corrosion rates for CO2, CO2-H2S containing hydrocarbon process streams using software such as ECE, PREDICT etc. to confirm the suitability of specified materials in a particular application.
- Shall ensure that material description on the Process Data Sheets, Mechanical Data Sheets and piping classes on P&IDs is consistent with Materials Selection Diagrams/ Material Selection Report and other relevant project specifications.
- Prepare scope document for specialised studies / sub contracts related to materials & corrosion engineering works as required and participate in technical bid evaluation.
- Shall update or develop Material & Corrosion reports such as Material Selection Report (MSR), Corrosion Risk Assessment Study (CRAS), Corrosion Control Manual (CCM), Risk Based Inspection (RBI) study and relevant specifications as per project scope. Also participates in Client's review and approval process.
- Develop Material Selection Diagrams (MSDs) and update until as-built stage.
- Shall review and develop technical specifications as required.
- Shall support other disciplines on material related issues such as technical deviations and material substitution requests during detailed design.
- Participate in inter-discipline design checks for all relevant documents originated from materials & corrosion engineering group and o
