Job Summary

• In charge of the design of incorporated subsea structures and/or associated installation aids, for deepwater and shallow-water field development


• Perform technical tasks assigned by the Subsea Structural Lead such as structural analyses, calculations, design, verification or study activities, specification/requisition writing


• Provide data to Designers to allow the creation of 3D and 2D design drawings. Review the 2D design drawings


• Interface with other Project Specialists (installation, geotechnical, flowline, subsea equipment, fabrication, etc.) and Designers


• Cumulate an experience about the design limitations and constraints imposed by offshore installation and related vessels


• Provide support to the Subsea Structural lead for coordination and review of technical activities performed inside or outside the company.

Main Responsibilities

• Design structural systems and components, pursuing objectives of robust engineering and design optimization in terms of costs, fabrication simplicity, constructability, and safety, in particular


• Select the most relevant design loads and boundary conditions to maximize the installation and in-place acceptable


• configurations, even unexpected, but always reasonably


• Check the selected design complies with all the structure functionalities, including constructability and offshore installability constraints


• Select the profiles and materials as standard as possible to simplify the procurement. Local procurement can be a constraint if requested by the project


• Check the permanent structures are sufficiently reliable over time, without maintenance during the subsea field life.


• Particularly considering the need for redundancy, high reliability, as well as corrosion and fatigue aspect


• Check that the installation aids are focused on operational practicality and on the safety of workers


• For permanent structure, liaise with other Project discipline teams (offshore installation, geotechnical, flowline, subsea equipment, fabrication, material, etc.), whenever required for proper completion of the work assigned, particularly to obtain the confirmation of the preliminary load cases or fabrication assumption considered at the start of the project


• For installation aids structure, liaise with the Installation method team to clarify the functional scope of work used as a basis and to define the technical structural solution


• Carry out/Check/Supervise structural analyses. Particularly, define own load and boundary condition assumption, as well as a good level of modelization (hand calculation, beam model, FEA model), is sufficient to provide the demonstration of the structure capacity


• Use the industry calculation software following the user manual, for a good selection and application of the numerical tools


• Interface with the Designer to Provide data necessary for the creation of 3D and 2D design drawings (including geometrical, material, welding, tolerance, and functional data). Supervise/Approve steel structure design drawings


• Review Client technical documentation and requirements. Answers to the Client's comments


• Contribute to defining structural design premises


• Write design reports and calculation notes


• Supervise setting up of bills of quantities or material take-off (MTO


• Contribute when required, to specifications for structural fabrications and all related items such as bearing systems, bolts, cladding, grating, etc.


• Provide support to the Subsea Structural Lead for coordination and review of technical activities performed inside or outside the company.


• Perform field engineering activities (if and when needed by the project activities)
