- Provide technical leadership for instrumentation, control, and safety systems within FEED and Detail Engineering projects in the Oil & Gas sector.
- Define instrumentation design bases, standards, and deliverables to ensure safe, reliable, and cost-effective solutions.
- Oversee integration with process, electrical, and multi-discipline interfaces; ensure compliance with applicable codes, standards, and regulatory requirements.
- Mentor engineers, drive quality and schedule adherence, and ensure robust instrumentation deliverables across project phases.
- Lead the engineering design, specification, and procurement support for field instrumentation, control systems, and safety instrumented systems (SIS).
- Develop and review instrument design basis, datasheets, loop diagrams, instrument index, I/O lists, to include safety instrumented functions (SIF) where applicable.
- Perform and supervise instrument sizing, signal integrity, signal lists, control valve selections, and actuator considerations; support loop philosophy and commissioning plans.
- Ensure compliance with codes and standards (e.g., IEC 61511 for SIS, IEC 61131 for PLCs, API RP 551/552, ISA standards, NFPA, ISA-75) and project-specific requirements.
- Coordinate interfaces with process, electrical, mechanical, civil, and reliability disciplines; manage vendors and third-party design reviews.
- Lead risk assessments and safety reviews related to instrumentation and control systems (HAZOP/HAZID, LOPA, SIL) and participate in safety reviews.
- Review and approve technical deliverables (P&IDs, instrument datasheets, loop diagrams, IO lists, MOC/Change Notes, design change requests, technical queries).
- Mentor and develop junior instrumentation engineers; support staffing, training, and performance evaluations.
- Develop and manage execution plans, man-hour estimates, and budgets for instrumentation scope.
- Ensure QA/QC practices, drawing standards, datasheets, instrument calibration plans, and requisition packages.
- Support field construction, commissioning, and start-up activities; participate in punch lists and as-built documentation.
- Stay current with advances in instrumentation technology and recommend value-added solutions.
- Experience: 15+ years of experience in FEED and Detail Engineering and EPCM experience in the Oil & Gas industry.
- ADNOC EPC/PMC experience are highly preferred
