Role Overview
The Pipe Stress Engineer will be responsible for offshore and marine piping stress analysis for FPSO mooring, offshore loading, and marine interface systems. This role requires strong engineering judgement beyond software execution, with direct ownership of safety-critical piping systems exposed to dynamic and environmental loading.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform pipe stress analysis using Caesar II for offshore and marine piping systems
- Assess dynamic effects including wave, vessel motion, thermal expansion, and operational loads
- Develop and review stress reports, load cases, and support requirements
- Interface with piping, structural, and E&I teams to resolve stress-related design issues
- Review vendor data, loading line systems, and offshore equipment interfaces
- Support brownfield modifications and offshore integration scopes
- Participate in design reviews and technical clarifications as package owner
Requirements
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent
- Strong offshore FPSO pipe stress experience
- Proficient in Caesar II with sound engineering judgement
- Experience with marine piping, loading lines, or offshore terminals
- Familiar with international offshore codes and standards
- Plant-only or onshore-only experience is not suitable
