Offshore Structural Designer

Location: Saudi Arabia

Mission

• Manage on a project a team of Structural Draftsmen in order to carry out the structural 3D CAD model and the extraction of the structural design drawings in accordance with technical, budget and schedule targets
• Ensure that the 3D CAD model is developed properly accounting for needs of all project functions availing of it as working tools (e.g. piping and layout engineering, weight control, material management, fabrication engineering

Tasks

Executes the activities within own area of responsibility, ensuring the compliance with the QA/QC and HSE requirements, performing the following main tasks.

In general:

1. Design, execute or check the typical Structural studies including:

• - 3D modelling with Tekla (or equivalent 3D CAD tool)
• - 3D model reviews with other disciplines
• - design drawings for primary, secondary and tertiary structures
• - bill of materials or material take off
• - extraction of bill of materials and other weight information from the 3D CAD model
• - developing Company standards on the basis lesson learned and fabrication yard recommendation

1. In the case of project execution

• Write the execution and quality control procedure for the 3D modelling and fabrication drawings in accordance with the project specifications
• Organize the work of own team, plan and follow-up the implementation of the resources mobilization plan
• Co-ordinate the work of own team with the structural engineers of the project
• Check the input data and all the documents and information issued by own team
