Structural Hull - Discipline Lead Engineer

Responsibilities

• The structural discipline consists of Structural Topside engineers and Structural Hull engineers. The Structural discipline provides Structural Engineering to the Group Product Lines, which contains studies, proposals, technology development, Pre-FEED projects, FEED projects and EPCI projects. 
• The Structural Hull Engineer is responsible for:
• Strength verifications of tanker conversions and new build hulls of FPSO projects.
• Structural and naval design of tanker conversions and new build hulls of FPSO projects.
• Support to the Technology Development department for FPSO and Renewable product lines in bringing new products and technology to the market.
• Support to the vessel acquisition department in the selection of donor tankers for conversion to FPSO and Renewable projects.
• Coordination and execution 3D drawings of hull structure and marine equipment of the FPSO.
• Offshore inspection of tankers and yard support during conversion & new build projects.
• In your role of Discipline Lead Engineer you are primary responsible for leading the Structural Hull team.
• The team consists of structural hull engineers and structural hull designers. You and your team will be responsible to provide structural analysis, 3D modelling, construction drawings and construction support for offshore units.
