Responsibilities:

Inspection of Electrical Systems

• Receive Materials and able to understand Material Test Certificates, IRN, identify faults if any.

• Inspect the installation of electrical systems on pipelines and well pads, including power distribution, lighting, motors, and control panels.

• Ensure that electrical wiring, grounding, and panel installations conform to relevant standards (e.g., IEC) and project specifications.

• Verify that electrical systems are installed with proper safety measures, including protection devices (e.g., fuses, circuit breakers) and compliance with hazardous area classifications.

• Perform inspection of electrical substations, switchgear, transformers, and control systems for pipelines and wellpads to ensure compliance with engineering designs.

Instrumentation Systems Inspection

• Inspect and verify the installation of instrumentation systems, including sensors, transmitters, controllers, flow meters, pressure gauges, temperature sensors, and level indicators.

• Ensure that instruments are correctly calibrated and installed according to engineering specifications and manufacturer’s guidelines.

• Verify the integrity of instrument loop wiring and connections between field instruments and control systems.

• Check that instrument signal wiring and connections to control systems (e.g., PLCs, SCADA) are correct and operational.

Telecommunications and Control Systems Inspection

• Inspect the installation and configuration of telecommunications systems used for remote monitoring and control of pipelines and well pads, including radio, fibre optic, satellite, and other communication equipment.

• Verify the proper installation of fibre optic cables, data communication equipment, and networking devices (e.g., routers, switches, etc.).

• Ensure that control systems, SCADA systems, and other remote monitoring technologies are integrated and configured correctly for smooth operations.

• Perform checks on telemetry systems to confirm data transmission is accurate and secure.

Compliance and Standards Adherence

• Ensure all electrical, instrumentation, and telecommunications installations comply with local, regional, and international standards, such as BS (British standards) IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) and ATEX/IECEx for hazardous locations.

• Verify that installation and testing of electrical systems, instrumentation, and telecom equipment align with environmental regulations and safety standards.

• Perform hazard analysis to identify potential electrical and instrumentation safety risks and ensure appropriate protective measures are in place.

Testing and Commissioning

• Assist in the testing and commissioning of electrical, instrumentation, and telecommunications systems to ensure they meet functional and performance specifications.

• Perform routine checks and functional tests on electrical equipment, instrumentation, and telecom systems to ensure proper operation and integration with other systems.

• Verify continuity and insulation resistance testing for cables and wiring, ensuring safe operation in hazardous areas.

• Conduct loop checks, calibration tests, and functional tests of instruments, sensors, and control systems.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

• Support troubleshooting activities in the event of system failures, such as electrical faults, instrumentation malfunctions, or communication breakdowns.

• Provide recommendations for corrective actions and preventive maintenance to ensure continuous operation of electrical, instrumentation, and telecom systems.

• Assist in routine and preventive maintenance inspections, ensuring that electrical and instrumentation systems are in optimal working condition.

Safety Inspections

• Ensure all electrical, instrumentation, and telecom systems are installed with appropriate safety features to prevent accidents or equipment failure (e.g., overcurrent protection, grounding, explosion-proof equipment).

• Monitor safety practices and procedures in the installation and commissioning of electrical and instrumentation equipment, ensuring they align with safety standards such as OSHA and IECEx/ATEX guidelines for hazardous environments.

• Participate in safety audits and hazard assessments (e.g., HAZOP) to identify and mitigate potential risks related to electrical or instrumentation systems.

Documentation and Reporting

• Reports to EIT lead Inspector.

• Maintain detailed records of all inspections, testing, commissioning, and maintenance activities for electrical, instrumentation, and telecommunications systems.

• Prepare inspection reports and technical documentation, highlighting any issues, deviations, or recommendations for improvement.

• Ensure that all testing and inspection results are properly documented for regulatory compliance and quality assurance purposes.

• Track and report on the status of electrical and instrumentation work, highlighting any delays or issues that may impact project timelines.

Collaboration and Coordination

• Collaborate with senior engineers, project managers, contractors, and other disciplines (e.g., mechanical, civil) to ensure the successful installation and commissioning of pipeline and well pad electrical, instrumentation, and telecom systems.

• Coordinate with vendors and manufacturers to ensure that equipment meets the required specifications and standards.

• Provide technical support and guidance to construction teams, contractors, and other stakeholders on electrical, instrumentation, and telecom systems installation and troubleshooting.

Training and Development

• Stay updated on the latest electrical, instrumentation, and telecommunications technologies, codes, and industry best practices.

• Participate in training programs and workshops to enhance knowledge and skills in electrical, instrumentation, and telecom systems related to pipeline and wellpad operations.

• Assist in the training of junior inspectors and personnel on best practices for electrical, instrumentation, and telecom installations.
