Senior Engineer, Asset Integrity at Independent Project Monitoring Company Limited (IPMC)

Key Objective:

• To champion Client asset integrity management for efforts involving pressure system equipment, structural equipment, inspection, and anomaly rectification activities.
• To promote continuous improvement within Client's operations to prevent/minimize safety critical  element (SCE) related integrity risks while increasing operational performance, leading to increased  value of assets.
• Maintain a working level control of OPEX/CAPEX spend related to asset integrity, i.e., budget versus  actual spend, with emphasis on cost consciousness.

Principal Accountabilities & Responsibilities:

Be responsible and accountable in efforts related to the development, implementation and management of asset integrity strategies, methodologies, processes and routine activities, such as:

• Responsible for the implementation of asset integrity strategies across all operating assets to ensure overall Asset Integrity goals of Client is met.
• To integrate integrity inspection with Plant Maintenance, Safety, Security, Health, and Environment (SSHE) and Process Safety functions.
• Active participation for integrity inspection requirement from fabrication to de-commissioning, i.e., fabrication inspection, commissioning inspection, first-in-service-inspection, operational integrity inspection (i.e., time-based, risk-based), asset late life integrity inspection, etc.
• Responsible for the generation of annual, mid-term and long-term asset integrity plans as required.
• Support the Pressure System & Structure Integrity Management team on analysis of degradation trends, performing failure analysis, fitness-for-service (FFS) and reporting of inspection findings and engineering support for anomalies rectification.
• Support the anomaly rectification team on introduction of new rectification methods, technology, material, etc.
• Support and maintain execution schedule, database, and anomalies tracking for asset integrity related activities for Pressure System, Structure, and Pipeline risers.
• To provide pragmatic support related to asset integrity Management of Change (MOC) & Anomaly Management tasks.
• Deliver internal reporting required by Head of Asset Integrity. Ensure this is accurate, relevant, timely and clearly identifies areas of significant risks to facilities operations.
• Manage activities of direct reports and contractors to achieve a standard of excellence in all areas related to asset integrity.
• Promote and establish new technologies where appropriate. Collaborate with Joint Industry Consortia and partnerships to establish workplace innovation to manage asset integrity.
• Participate in all Client SSHE programs such as safety meetings, safety engagement and workshops, training courses, etc. Provide relevant feedback to improve SSHE undertakings in asset integrity.
• Interface and coordinate with relevant stakeholders; discipline engineers, maintenance, operations, and safety team to conduct technical Integrity assessments and associated failure analysis to resolve complex issues related to asset integrity.
• Establish internal audits to ensure asset integrity related performance management are met.
