Airswift is seeking a Piping Engineer Level II (Offshore) to support an EPC Company in Abu Dhabi. Role Purpose Lead piping engineering activities on small to medium projects and/or support the Principal/Lead Engineer in managing piping engineering on major scopes, delivering safe, compliant and constructible designs in an EPC/EPCM environment. Provide strong technical delivery with strength in piping stress analysis, pipe supports, piping materials engineering and procurement support, while supervising and mentoring less experienced engineers/designers. Execute piping engineering work independently with sound engineering judgement, ensuring quality, schedule and budget commitments are met, and interfaces are managed effectively across disciplines, vendors and construction. Minimum Qualifications & Experience (as specified) Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering (or equivalent). 10+ years total experience in piping engineering within Oil & Gas / Energy / Process industries. 5+ years offshore experience with extended proven offshore design experience (must-have). 5+ years detailed engineering offshore (preferred). Strong FEED experience with demonstrated leadership activities (task leadership, supervision, mentoring, and multi-discipline interface). Good knowledge of piping stress analysis and pipe supports (static/dynamic as applicable). Good knowledge of piping materials engineering and procurement processes (PMS/line classes, MTO/MR, TBE, vendor document reviews). ADNOC standards awareness is an advantage; familiarity with Worley systems/templates is a plus; GCC experience is a plus. Key Accountabilities & Responsibilities HSE, SEAL & Safety in Design Demonstrate visible commitment to HSE and promote safe behaviours; comply with project and corporate HSE requirements in all work activities. Participate in SEAL alignment and hazard/risk assessment workshops and incorporate outcomes into piping engineering deliverables and decisions. Apply Safety in Design principles (ALARP / hierarchy of controls) and ensure hazards/risks are identified, communicated and managed through design and reviews. Project Execution, Leadership & Delivery Management Plan, schedule and deliver assigned piping engineering scope to meet project milestones, quality requirements and budgeted hours. Supervise and guide piping and junior engineers/designers; provide coaching, checking/back-checking and technical direction. Support development of discipline CTRs/estimates, progress reporting, and deliverables tracking for assigned work packages. Coordinate closely with the Piping Lead/Principal on priorities, risks, constraints and interface resolution (inter-discipline, vendor, subcontractor and client). Piping Engineering & Layout (Offshore Focus) Review project scope, design basis, specifications and design criteria; apply relevant international codes and customer standards (including ADNOC where applicable). Develop and check piping layouts and engineering deliverables ensuring safe access/egress, operability, maintainability and constructability; support plot plan and 3D model reviews. Coordinate piping routing and layout interfaces with process, mechanical, civil/structural, E&I and HSE; identify clashes and drive closure via agreed actions. Provide technical input for offshore brownfield constraints including tie-in feasibility, space/weight limitations, installation methodology considerations and shutdown/workpack requirements (as applicable to scope). Piping Stress Analysis & Pipe Supports (Strong Focus) Perform and/or review piping stress analysis using project-approved software and manual methods as required; ensure compliance with the project-adopted code and stress criteria. Develop and maintain stress deliverables such as stress critical line lists, stress sketches, stress reports and stress sign-off/approval status for isometrics. Evaluate static and dynamic effects as applicable (thermal expansion, wind/seismic, PSV reaction, vibration, surge/slug) and define mitigation actions through routing and support optimisation. Define pipe support requirements and coordinate support philosophy with civil/structural; prepare/verify support loads, anchor/guide forces, nozzle loads and load transmittals. Support resolution of stress-related technical queries, site issues and modifications with practical engineering judgement. Piping Materials Engineering & Procurement Support (Strong Focus) Prepare and/or review piping material specificati
