You will also participate in the preparation and review of Material Requisitions, MTOs, technical bid evaluations, and mitigation strategies such as cathodic protection, chemical inhibition, and protective coatings.
Roles and Responsibilities:
Design & Engineering Phase
• Review Specified appropriate materials (metals, coatings, composites) for process fluids,
pressure, temperature, and corrosion conditions.
• Review and consent to develop Material Selection Diagrams (MSDs) and Corrosion Control
Documents (CCDs).
• Participate in the preparation and review of Material Requisitions, Material Take - Offs (MTOs),
and technical bid evaluations.
• Define corrosion mitigation strategies including cathodic protection, chemical inhibition, and
coatings/linings.
• Ensure material and corrosion design complies with international codes (ASME, ISO, API) and
company specifications.
Fabrication Construction & Installation Phase
• Review and approve vendor documents, material certificates (MTCs), and welding procedures
(WPS/PQR).

• Conduct site inspections and audits to verify material quality and corrosion control measures.
• Support QA/QC team during FATs and SATs.
Operation & Maintenance Phase
• Analyze corrosion monitoring data (e.g., coupons, probes, smart pigs).
• Recommend corrective actions for corrosion - related anomalies.
• Support RBI (Risk - Based Inspection) and integrity assessment programs.
• Investigate material failures and perform root cause analysis.
Qualifications, Experience, Knowledge and Skills:
• Strong knowledge of materials science, metallurgy, corrosion mechanisms.
• Proficient in interpreting P&IDs, PFDs, isometrics, and technical standards.
• Experience in offshore/onshore oil & gas environments.
• Familiarity with corrosion modeling software (e.g., OLI, CO2Sys, ECE).
• Excellent problem - solving and communication skills.
• Bachelor of Science Degree (BSc) in Engineering from an accredited university
• Work experience of then (10) years in the sought discipline after earning the BSc degree
