RESPONSIBILITIES

Typical Responsibilities

• Technical Leadership:
  • Provide technical expertise in topside/subsea electrical engineering activities; we are specially looking for engineers with experience of front-end activities.
  • Participate in the development of engineering solutions for subsea projects, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, regulations, and industry standards.
  • Stay updated with the latest technological advancements and industry trends in topside and subsea engineering and apply them to enhance project efficiency and safety.
• Subsea Controls Electrical Design:
  • Develop and review design for electrical panels located on onshore terminals/offshore platforms/floating vessels responsible for providing AC or DC power (up to 1000 V) and communication to subsea equipment located up to 100 km away from the source.
  • Experience on fibre optic communication and on copper-based communication superimposed on power line.
  • Experience on power and communication analysis (using PSpice or equivalent software) to identify best-case and worst-case power and communication response of the system with multiple nodes.
  • Experience on preparing test philosophies and procedures for topside and subsea electrical equipment.
  • Preferably should have an experience on developing and reviewing the subsea electrical engineering designs, specifications, and procedures for Subsea Control Module, Distribution Module and subsea instrumentation.
  • Collaborate with contractors, vendors, and suppliers to evaluate and select appropriate topside/subsea equipment, power/communication distribution architecture and communication topology.
  • Review engineering deliverables to ensure technical alignment across multiple contractors (BoD's, PFD'S, P&IDS, etc).
• HSE Compliance:
  • Promote a strong safety culture and ensure compliance with health, safety, and environmental (HSE) regulations throughout subsea engineering activities.
  • Conduct risk assessments and implement appropriate measures to mitigate potential hazards and minimise operational risks.

QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree or higher in engineering in electrical engineering.
• Extensive experience (in the range of 6 to 12 years) in electrical engineering within the oil and gas industry, preferably having a proven track record in subsea projects.
• Strong knowledge of subsea engineering principles, subsea systems, and relevant industry codes and standards (e.g., API, ISO).
• Proficiency in using subsea engineering software tools, such as subsea design and analysis software.
• Demonstrated project management skills, including the ability to manage multiple projects concurrently, prioritize tasks, and deliver results within deadlines and budget constraints.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, stakeholders, and contractors.
• Strong problem-solving abilities, with a focus on finding innovative and practical solutions to complex subsea engineering challenges.
• Sound understanding of HSE regulations and a commitment to promoting a safe working environment.
