Inspection & NDT Management

• Define and oversee inspection strategies using risk-based approaches (RBI).
• Interpret advanced and conventional NDT techniques (e.g., PAUT, TOFD, IRIS, MFL, UT, corrosion mapping) and translate findings into actionable maintenance plans.
• Manage degradation mechanisms relevant to hydrogen and ammonia services such as hydrogen embrittlement, HTHA, corrosion under insulation (CUI), stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and cryogenic damage in ASU systems.

Maintenance & Turnaround Execution

• Lead static equipment maintenance, repair, and overhaul activities during planned shutdowns and turnarounds.

• Prepare scopes of work (SOW), technical specifications, and job plans for maintenance activities.

• Ensure high-quality execution with strong focus on safety, schedule adherence, and zero incidents.

Failure Analysis & Continuous Improvement

• Lead and participate in Root Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations for equipment failures and process upsets.
• Develop and implement sustainable corrective and preventive actions.
• Conduct performance monitoring, hotspot analysis, and integrity threat assessments.

Project & Commissioning Support

• Provide mechanical integrity and inspection support during project phases including design review, construction, pre-commissioning, and startup.
• Review and approve engineering deliverables such as line lists, valve summaries, and pressure relief systems documentation.
• Ensure proper asset data capture, documentation, and integration into asset management systems.

Regulatory Compliance & Standards

• Ensure compliance with international codes and standards (API, ASME, NACE, EIGA, ISO).
• Implement and manage pressure relief device programs and inspection intervals.
• Support audits and ensure adherence to environmental, safety, and quality regulations.

Digitalization & Asset Management
