This role ensures compliance with bp Group Practices, international codes and standards (e.g., API, ASME), and local regulations, supporting safe, reliable, and optimized asset performance within production facilities.

Essential Requirements

• Proficient in inspection execution, and evaluation for pressure systems, including pressure vessels, piping, heat exchangers, and associated static equipment in LNG plant or similar operations.
• Experienced in performing Risk Based Assessment/Risk-Based Inspection (RBI), and corrosion/damage mechanism evaluations.
• Familiar with the selection and use of engineering tools and platforms for managing pressure equipment integrity and work management (e.g., IDMS, Nexus, RBI tools, SAP).
• Knowledgeable in pressure systems-related codes, such as API 510, API 570, API 653, ASME Section VIII, B31.3, and relevant regulatory frameworks.

Key Accountabilities

• Contribute to the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of the Integrity Management Program, ensuring inspection strategies are risk-based, technically sound, and aligned with asset priorities.
• Support efficient deployment of PSI engineering resources across the region, ensuring optimal support to site operations and maintenance teams.
• Support the development and execution of regional PSI strategies, annual integrity plans, and associated budgets.
• Participate in the management and technical oversight of contracts related to inspection, NDE services, and integrity data management systems.
• Drive implementation of regional self-verification and assurance processes for PSI, ensuring effective controls are in place and risks are being actively managed.
• Set and review engineering procedures and inspection work scopes to ensure consistency with industry best practice and site-specific requirements.
• Support the deployment and standardization of PSI digital tools (e.g., IDMS, RBI platforms), and ensure data integrity and reliability across the region.
• Continuously improve PSI program performance through monitoring of integrity KPIs, trending of anomalies, and periodic program health checks.
• Capture and embed lessons learned from integrity-related events or near misses into engineering standards, practices, or workflows.
• Where applicable, oversee internal staff or third-party contractors delivering PSI activities, promoting high performance, continuous improvement, and technical excellence.
• Actively participate in regional or global PSI Communities of Practice to share knowledge, align practices, and support discipline development.

Essential Education

• University degree in Material Engineering, Metallurgical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or industrial engineering with relevant experience.

Relevant Experience

• At least 10 years of experience in a similar role
• In-depth knowledge of a wide range of inspection techniques, methodologies and analysis
• Excellent communication skills with fluency in both written and spoken English
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
• Proficient in RBA/RBI practices and well-versed in industry standards such as API 510, API 570, and API 653
