JOB DIMENSIONS

The service includes performing preliminary offshore pipeline and risers design for early phases development studies, in particular screening, conceptual and pre-Project phases. In addition, it includes supporting further phases like FEED and Detail Design, by reviewing and following-up design work done by CONTRACTORS and participating to technical meetings. Moreover, it includes supporting COMPANY's affiliates to operate pipeline and risers related assets by assessing fit-for-purpose and recommending further repairing strategies.

Finally, though the main activities are related to offshore pipeline systems, some support may be expected for onshore pipeline engineering.

ACTIVITIES

Performing preliminary pipeline and riser design for shallow and deepwater offshore developments, including shore approaches (open trench and trenchless crossings), following international design codes and standards as well as Company General Specifications.

Support FEED and Detail Design by reviewing the documents issued by CONTRACTOR, supporting Technical Queries responses, participating to technical meetings and issuing Memos with technical recommendations.

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Level of expertise :

10 years' experience in shallow water and deep offshore rigid pipeline and riser design

Knowledge in onshore pipeline design

Fully knowledgeable in offshore design standards and codes as DNV ST F101, DNV ST F201, ASME B31.8, ASME B31.4, API STD 2RD and API RP 1111 as well as the documents referenced in these. A minimum knowledge in onshore pipeline design codes (ASME B31.8, ASME B31.4, ISO 13623)

OTHER OBSERVATIONS

Minimum experience in other pipeline related subjects like non-metallic pipes (unbonded and bonded flexibles and TCP), pre-commissioning activities are appreciated.
