STATIC MECHANICAL ENGINEER

We are seeking an experienced Static Mechanical Engineer to join our team supporting the design and of a largescale onshore oil and gas project in the Middle East. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in the engineering sector with a particular focus on static mechanical design including pressure vessels heat exchangers boilers and other static equipment. The candidate should have a solid background in Detailed Engineering working to ensure that static mechanical systems meet the projects technical and safety standards.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Lead the design and engineering of static mechanical equipment such as pressure vessels heat exchangers tanks piping and other critical infrastructure for oil and gas facilities.
• Develop and review detailed engineering deliverables including drawings datasheets calculations and specifications for static mechanical systems.
• Perform mechanical design calculations (e.g. stress analysis material selection pressure design) to ensure compliance with relevant industry codes and standards (e.g. ASME API ASME VIII ASME B31.3.
• Review and approve vendor documentation for static equipment ensuring it aligns with project requirements and industry standards.
• Collaborate with other engineering disciplines (civil electrical instrumentation) to ensure the integration and proper functioning of static mechanical systems within the overall project.
• Provide technical support during the construction commissioning and startup phases of the project ensuring smooth installation and operation of static equipment.
• Participate in hazard analysis and risk assessments related to the design fabrication and operation of static equipment.
• Review and optimize static equipment designs for operational efficiency reliability and costeffectiveness.
• Provide guidance and mentorship to junior engineers ensuring the effective completion of tasks and adherence to engineering standards.
• Ensure all designs comply with local regulations and international industry codes (API ASME ISO).
• Support the preparation of procurement documents ensuring equipment specifications are clear and meet project requirements.
• Review and monitor the quality control processes during fabrication and installation of static equipment.
• Assist in the troubleshooting and resolution of technical issues related to static mechanical systems during project .
