Instrumentation Engineer

Administer the packages of the instrumentation engineering group.

Uses technical knowledge to perform engineering assignments and produce a range of instrumentation engineering deliverables (including more complex tasks) with limited guidance and direction from more senior technical professionals.

Develops a range of instrumentation engineering deliverables, including specifications, calculations, reports, technical requisitions, material requisitions and others.

Ensure that Instrumentation Engineering activities are executed according to project procedures, specifications and standards, good engineering practices and techniques, and any project-specific requirements.

Supervise the day-to-day (if any) engineering interfaces between PMC core engineering group, Project Management team and the engineering teams assigned to the EPC package – includes interaction with all other specialist disciplines as required.

Participate in design reviews and engineering changes with customer and EPC contractor as necessitated by design development and ensure core team are made aware of these.

Participate in key customer reviews and meetings as required.

Participate in project reviews, value engineering and value improvement workshops with customer/ contractor.

Participate in meetings and reviews.

Responsible for estimating electrical discipline manhours and schedule requirements in production of deliverables, coordinates own work schedule, and prepares progress reports.

Review vendor documentation.

Carryout Site Surveys and develop site survey reports.

Review and comment PFD / P&ID for any control / interlock / safety related representations.

Participating in HAZOP / SIL review meeting. Implementing safety instrument design as per review reports.

Implementing safety instrument design as per HAZOP / SIL review reports, performing the calculation of SIL definitions and preparing safety requirement specifications.

Update of P&ID and instrument structure design for the SIL requirements.

Preparation / review / development of specifications of DCS / SIS / F&G systems and any other PLC related systems.

Preparation of system architecture for DCS, SIS, F&G, or any other control systems.

Preparation of material requisitions for DCS / SIS / F&G systems, SCADA or any other control systems required for the project.

Preparation of technical bid evaluations of suppliers’ proposal for control systems.

Preparation of the control system requirement for package units; supporting package specialists for MR, technical clarification and bid evaluations, document review and approval. Coördinating the interfaces between package unit control system and plant control systems.

Review and approve vendor documents for incorporation into the design and co-ordination with other disciplines. Provide the input to other disciplines, such as electrical consumption for electrical power supply design, heat dissipation for ACMV design, weight and dimension for civil/architecture design.
