Purpose

• As Global Coating and insulation Engineer, you are responsible for assisting with strategies that relate to coating, Passive Fire Protection (PFP), the integrity of the holding tank's Epoxy linings and Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) inspections/surveys within the fleet. You also coordinate, oversee and delegate to the regions, all inspection/survey activities that relate to these sub-disciplines. This role ensures that all coatings, PFP, Tank Lining Integrity (TLI) surveys and CUI inspection activities are completed safely, efficiently and in accordance with project specifications.

Responsibilities

• You are an observational and innovative thinker who suggests improvements to the to coatings, PFP, Tank Linings and CUI inspections/surveys through critical thinking, in order to safeguard the operating Assets
• You support in the writing of management strategy documents and GEMS procedures in a clear and concise way in advanced written English.
• You plan, communicate and delegate to the regions the coating surveys and repairs, PFP inspections and repairs, TLI surveys and repairs and CUI inspection activities within the fleet, including coordinating with contractors and suppliers
• You coordinate with the regions the inspections/surveys of coatings, PFP, tank linings and CUI to ensure quality and compliance with project requirements
• You continuously develop and improve new coating, PFP, TLI and CUI strategies to optimize efficiencies and cost-effectiveness
• You provide technical support and guidance to the regional project teams in respect to coatings, PFP, TLI surveys and CUI inspection best practices
• You monitor and report on the progress and performance of the coatings, PFP, TLI, CUI and inspection/survey activities
• You collaborate with project stakeholders to address any issues or concerns related to coatings, PFP, TLI and CUI work activities
