- Perform design verifications and fitness-for-service assessments of offloading systems, and advise Operations on residual risk, testing programs and equipment strategies.
- Support marine integrity management and life extension activities; lead RCFAs and risk assessments related to hull, mooring, marine systems, offloading and marine operations.
- Evaluate loads and responses of offshore structures(eg floaters, risers/umbilical s, offloading systems),taking into account key critical parameters and inter-disciplinary interfaces.
- Guide development and/or qualification of new technologies for implementation in the field of marine engineering.
- Perform floating systems condition, damage, and degradation assessments; evaluate system reliability and operational risks.
- Provide advice / guidance on application of various industry codes and standards(eg API, ISO, ABS, DNV) and assessment methods; manage interfaces with the Classification Societies and local regulators.
- Monitor and provide engineering oversight of third-party engineering contractors and marine service providers to our Business Partners.
- Review, interpret, and evaluate contractor-supplied design and engineering deliverables, guide contractor in selection of analysis tools and methodologies.
- Sustain ExxonMobils culture of safety and support compliance with established safety management systems for our fleet of floating assets.
- Support ExxonMobils vision to lead in the energy transition.
