What you will do
- Provide corrosion expertise to assist in the development of equipment strategies and integrity operating windows involving higher complexity corrosion mechanisms (e.g., crude corrosion, acid gas corrosion, etc.,) effectively interfacing with other Engineering disciplines, such as Process, Pipeline, Fixed/Rotating Equipment, Structures, Instrumentation Control, etc.
- Provide analysis and interpretation of corrosion data from sources such as corrosion coupons/spools, probes, sensors, and inspection reports, as well as process conditions and fluids analyses, to support global business units and manufacturing sites.
- Lead the design of fit-for-purpose corrosion monitoring programs for facilities including selection of monitoring methods and locations, as well as review of engineering contractors detailed designs for corrosion monitoring equipment such as probes, sensors and coupon holders, sampling locations, etc.
- Perform risk assessments and root cause failure analysis for corrosion or erosion related threats and/or incidents and provide recommendations to mitigate the issues.
- Perform predictive corrosion modelling using ExxonMobil proprietary and 3rd party software to support global business units/manufacturing sites and capital projects. Collaborate with SMEs on new or upgraded corrosion modelling tools to support competency development plans and other deployment activities, remedy errors, enhance and/or expand usability, add functionality, and/or otherwise significantly improve capabilities.
- Conduct corrosion, erosion, or wear prediction work in collaboration with other disciplines - Flow Assurance, Mechanical Integrity, and recommend corrective actions and/or upgrade integrity programs or equipment strategies.
- Use corrosion prediction models, perform basic corrosion calculations, and use corrosion design curves as support to material selection decisions.
- Coordinate and communicate between various global centers and business affiliates for knowledge transfer, sharing learnings, skill management and maintaining business relationships.
- Continuously stay abreast of latest developments in industry standards/practices, bring in learnings/experience to challenge and improve company work processes/practices, and technology.
