  Piping stress engineer

  - I performed formal and non-formal piping stress analysis of piping systems that are connected to pumps, turbines, FRP tanks, reciprocating compressors, PSVs, air coolers, blowdown, flare, fire-fighting systems, etc. Also, I analysed cases such as equipment settlement, lined and jacketed pipes and modular designs.- Checked for leakage of API/NEMA nozzles and reported nozzle loads to equipment’s vendors.- Directed and maintained client’s requirements for the new plant design, project desktop, and follow up lead office instructions.- Selected special pipe components such as bellows, crack arrestors and components related to the discipline.- Designed special supports and structure related to the piping- Estimated and reported the pipe loads to other disciplines and - Issued necessary documentation: piping stress report, standard and special pipe support drawings, pipe class material specification, critical pipe list.Projects:- Longford Gas conditioning plant (LNG); client: Exxon Mobil, UK- Gorgon Project Barrow-Island (LNG); clients: Chevron, Exxon Mobil, and Shell, Australia- Cartagena refinery expansion (Onshore refinery); Client: Reficar, Columbia- Advanced Propylene & Ethylene (pipeline); client: Petro Rabigh, KSA- Development of piping stress & supporting workflow; client: CB&I Cairo office.

  - ASME code for power piping, B31.1 (4 rounds)- ASME code for process piping, B31.3 (8 rounds)- ASME code for pipeline transportation systems for gases, B31.8 (3 round)- Piping Stress Analysis Using Caesar II (8 rounds)- Design and Construction of Piping Systems (1 round) To investigate the failure occurred in the hot water line, I visited the site and reported the observation of the failure. Then, I reviewed design data, including stress analysis reports, hydraulic calculations, equipment and pipe components selection, etc. From this, I modelled the existing system to prove the proposed failure causes and reported it. Finally, I proposed remedial plan including the design changes and analysis of the new design.
