Pipeline Designer

Job Description

Based in the United Arab Emirates, the successful candidate will contribute to the development of high-quality design deliverables for subsea pipeline systems on major oil and gas developments.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Develop pipeline design drawings and deliverables across FEED, Detailed Engineering, and Detailed Design stages.
• Prepare pipeline routing layouts, alignment sheets, trenching and backfilling details, crossing drawings, tie-in and riser arrangements, and isometrics.
• Interpret engineering inputs (stress analysis, installation constraints, geophysical data) into accurate and constructible design outputs.
• Generate 2D and 3D models for subsea pipeline systems using design software (e.g., AutoCAD, MicroStation, PDMS/E3D).
• Produce design deliverables in accordance with project specifications, applicable international standards (DNV-ST-F101, ASME B31.4/8, ISO), and client requirements.
• Coordinate with pipeline engineers and other disciplines (e.g., structural, process, geotechnical) to ensure seamless integration of design deliverables.
