Some examples of the experience that would be of benefit are:
- Pipe stress analysis.
- Equipment specification and engineering specification writing.
- Experience of attendance at site for surveys and operations.
- High temperature component life assessment.
- Fitness for service assessments.
- Pressure part design calculations.
- Plant layout design.
- Pipeline routing and design.
- Checking and providing assurance of deliverables.
