A. Welding Engineering & Procedure Control • Develop, review, and qualify WPS/PQRs in accordance with project requirements and code standards. • Manage Welder and Welding Operator Performance Qualification (WPQ) and continuity records. • Prepare Weld Maps, Welding Sequence Plans, and Technical Queries (TQs) for design discrepancies. B. Quality Assurance & NDT Control • Lead and supervise the QA/QC team; review and approve Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs) and NDT procedures (RT, UT, MT, PT). • Perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA) of welding failures and NCRs, and propose technical solutions to improve weld quality and productivity. • Interpret radiographic films (RTFI) and witness NDT activities on-site. C. Cross-Country Pipeline Specific Inspection & Execution (??????) • Perform comprehensive pipeline construction inspections along the Right-of-Way (ROW), strictly following API 1104, ASME B31.4/B31.8, and project specifications. • Conduct pre-weld inspections for pipe bevel preparation, root gap, fit-up tolerances, and alignment prior to the root pass. • Supervise field automatic/semi-automatic pipeline welding (GMAW/FCAW) used for large-diameter cross-country lines. • Monitor and verify pre-heat, inter-pass temperatures, and heat input across the pipeline spread to prevent hydrogen cracking. • Coordinate daily NDT activities along the pipeline (RT/AUT), ensuring timely defect identification and rectification. • Inspect field joint coating, holiday testing, and anti-corrosion systems on the girth welds. • Coordinate tie-in welding, lowering, and backfilling activities to maintain continuous construction quality. • Witness Hydrostatic Testing, pigging, and drying procedures for pipeline sections and final mechanical completion. • Maintain comprehensive pipeline weld records, NDT tracking logs, and repair registers for project audit and handover to the Client. D. Field Execution, HSE & Coordination • Provide daily technical support for on-site construction, resolving bottlenecks related to pipelines, piping, and structural work. • Liaise with clients, TPI, and subcontractors, and participate in weekly progress and quality meetings. • Ensure strict compliance with HSE policies (HAZOP, JSA) and issue Lessons Learned and quality feedback notices to the project teams.

• Minimum 15 years of extensive experience in the Oil & Gas industry, specifically in large-scale EPC projects and cross-country pipeline construction. • Proven hands-on experience in cross-country pipeline projects, including the supervision of automatic and semi-automatic welding spreads (e.g., GMAW/FCAW with Saturnax/Serimax systems), field joint coating, NDT (RT/AUT), and hydrostatic testing. • Demonstrated track record of working with major international operators such as TotalEnergies, Saudi Aramco, or equivalent in onshore pipeline and plant facilities. • Expert knowledge of applicable pipeline codes and standards: API 1104, ASME B31.4, B31.8, DNV-ST-F101, and NACE MR0175/ISO 15156. • Solid experience in field tie-in welding, in-service welding, hot tapping, and sour service environments. • In-depth understanding of pipeline pre-commissioning and commissioning procedures, including pigging and drying operations. • Proven experience in managing pipeline QA/QC data, RT film interpretation (RTFI), and final handover dossiers to meet strict client audit requirements.
