Vessel- Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

• Study and understand project requirements related to pressure vessels, atmospheric tanks, ladders, and platforms.
• Provide inputs to the Lead Mechanical Engineer regarding design schedules and engineering deliverables.
• Perform mechanical design calculations for vessels and tanks including process-related calculations such as resin expansion, internals sizing, and equipment functionality.
• Conduct code-based design calculations as per applicable standards including ASME Section VIII Div.1 / Div.2, API 650, API 620, TEMA, and PD5500.
• Perform strength calculations, nozzle load calculations, and mechanical integrity checks for vessels and tanks.
• Conduct wind load, seismic load, and allowable nozzle load analysis for vessels and storage tanks.
• Perform equipment design calculations using specialized software such as PV Elite or Compress.
• Carry out preliminary fatigue assessment for vessels when required by project specifications.
• Coordinate with external engineering agencies when advanced FEA analysis is required, providing necessary operational inputs such as pressure and temperature cycles.
• Review engineering outputs prepared by designers to ensure compliance with project specifications and applicable design codes.
• Perform structural analysis of platforms using STAAD or equivalent tools.
• Coordinate with external structural agencies for advanced platform or structural analysis when required.
• Ensure compliance with OSHA requirements for platform and ladder designs.
• Review and verify material selection for vessels, tanks, and associated structures ensuring compatibility with process requirements.
• Participate in engineering coordination and design review meetings to finalize design aspects such as nozzle orientation in coordination with piping teams.
• Resolve vendor technical queries related to vessels, tanks, and platforms in coordination with Lead Mechanical Engineers.
• Participate in customer meetings related to mechanical design aspects of vessels, tanks, and platforms.
• Prepare technical requisitions and upload material requirements in SAP systems.
• Review vendor quotations to ensure compliance with technical and project requirements.
• Prepare equipment datasheets and technical specifications for vessels, tanks, and related equipment.
• Support the Applications / Proposal team with design inputs, BOQs, and engineering estimates during FEED phases such as FEL-2 and FEL-3.
• Communicate effectively with internal teams, customers, and external vendors.
