Liaises with Mechanical information for all matters concerning loads on equipment. Prepares specifications, data-sheets, Material Requirements (MR’s) Technical Bid Tabulation (TBT’s) and review vendor drawings for all tagged support items. Review support type and location indicated on the IFC isometric in accordance with approved stress isometrics. Liaises with Lead Piping Engineer for the selection applicable standards, codes and specifications and incorporate them in job specifications. Preparation of piping classes index and summary. Provides input data for piping components to 3D tool database. Prepare Material Requirement (MR) and Technical Bid Tabulation (TBT) Prepare mechanical data for Line list and supervise all MTO activities. This includes piping insulating / painting and pressure / NDE testing requirements. Prepare job specifications for piping fabrication, inspection and testing (where Client specifications are not available). Oversee compliance with industry codes and standards and department work instructions, specifications and standards for the assigned project. Interface with other departments, clients, vendors, subcontractors and third parties as per Lead Engineer’s instructions. Participate in inter-disciplines, project, client and vendor meetings when requested by the Lead Engineer.
