What You Will Do

In this role, you will:

• Act as the technical lead for rotating equipment, advising operational standards and maintenance strategies for pumps, compressors, turbines, diesel engines, and gearboxes.
• Develop and implement preventive, predictive, and condition-based maintenance programs to optimize equipment reliability and minimize downtime.
• Monitor performance metrics (vibration, thermography, oil analysis), identify abnormalities, and drive corrective interventions.
• Lead or support root cause analyses (RCA), incident investigations, and track action plans to prevent recurrence.
• Coordinate shutdown and breakdown reviews, ensuring timely maintenance execution with the engineering team.
• Champion long-term reliability initiatives, reduce lifecycle costs, and update lessons-learned registers through MOCs, audits, and shutdowns.
• Prepare and review technical documents—including operational procedures, overhaul scopes, commissioning plans, and MOC submissions.
• Partner with maintenance planners to keep CMMS (e.g., SAP, IFS) up-to-date with tasks, equipment history, and material needs.
• Respond to stakeholder queries, offering technically sound guidance in a timely manner.
• Coordinate with OEMs, vendors, and contractors—overseeing inspections, overhauls, repair services, and validating technical reports.
• Conduct competence assessments and mentor offshore leads/technicians, supporting their development through training programs.
• Participate in mechanical inspections and ensure all activities comply with HSE, class, flag state, and environmental standards.
• Promote inclusive offshore team development and support nationalization initiatives

• Bachelors in mechanical/industrial engineering or equivalent; 8–10 years in operations and maintenance, including at least 5 years offshore in Oil & Gas and ideally 3+ years on FPSO/FPU. Pre-commissioning/project phase experience is a plus.
• Expertise in rotating machinery (pumps, compressors, turbines, diesel gen sets) and their integration with marine, topside, and utility systems, supported by strong knowledge of Class, Flag State, API, ISO, IMO regulations.
• Proficient in maintenance strategies (RCM, FMECA), condition monitoring techniques (vibration, thermography, oil analysis), CMMS systems, and performance simulation tools.
• Excellent analytical and planning abilities—troubleshooting chronic issues, conducting root-cause analysis, preparing overhaul scopes, and collaborating with OEMs and vendors.
• Strong communication and coordination skills, capable of working with offshore teams, planners, inspectors, and preparing technical reports, MOC submissions, and reliability improvement plans.
• A proactive safety mindset, ensuring rotating equipment is maintained and operated with full HSE and regulatory compliance; adept at data-driven performance optimization.
