CONSTRUCTION METHODS ENGINEER (C)

MAIN FUNCTIONS

• Develop and prepare construction methodologies, execution strategies, and work procedures for project activities.
• Review engineering drawings, specifications, project schedules, and site conditions to determine safe and efficient construction methods.
• Develop detailed method statements, work packs, construction sequences, and execution plans for assigned construction activities.
• Evaluate constructability of engineering designs and identify potential construction constraints, risks, and interface issues.
• Provide technical support to construction teams during project execution and resolve methodology-related site issues.
• Coordinate with Engineering, Construction, Planning, QA/QC, HSE, Procurement, Materials, and Commissioning teams to ensure construction methods are properly integrated with project requirements.
• Develop construction sequences and work methodologies that optimize productivity, resource utilization, safety, quality, and schedule performance.
• Review proposed construction methods submitted by contractors and provide technical comments and recommendations.
• Ensure construction methodologies comply with approved engineering designs, project specifications, applicable codes, standards, and company procedures.
• Develop lifting, installation, erection, temporary works, access, handling, and logistics methodologies where applicable.
• Assess requirements for construction equipment, tools, temporary facilities, manpower, materials, and specialist services.
• Identify potential construction risks and develop appropriate mitigation and contingency measures.
• Participate in constructability reviews, HAZID/HAZOP sessions, risk assessments, design reviews, and construction readiness assessments.
• Provide input into project planning and scheduling by establishing logical construction sequences, activity durations, and required work fronts.
• Review construction work packs to ensure they contain the necessary drawings, procedures, permits, inspection requirements, and technical information.
• Coordinate construction interfaces between different disciplines and ensure work sequences minimize clashes and rework.
• Monitor field execution to verify that approved construction methodologies are being followed and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Investigate deviations from approved methods and recommend corrective actions or revised methodologies where required.
• Support the preparation of technical queries, Requests for Information (RFIs), field change requests, and engineering clarifications.
• Ensure construction methods adequately address quality control, inspection, testing, environmental, and HSE requirements.
• Participate in pre-construction meetings, contractor coordination meetings, toolbox discussions, and technical reviews.
• Maintain controlled records of method statements, procedures, technical calculations, revisions, approvals, and lessons learned.
• Support continuous improvement by capturing lessons learned and developing more effective construction methodologies for future projects.
• Perform other duties as assigned by the Construction Manager, Engineering Manager, or Project Manager.
