Job Description: Static Mechanical Engineer

Position Summary

The Static Mechanical Engineer is responsible for providing high-level technical expertise,

design validation, asset integrity management, and engineering support for all static (stationary)

equipment and piping systems within the manufacturing facility. This role focuses on maximizing

plant reliability, leading execution strategies during major turnarounds, ensuring structural

compliance with international design codes, and mitigating risk across high-pressure, corrosive

process loops.

Department: Engineering

Report To: Mechanical Lead Engineer / Head of Engineering

Key Responsibilities

1. Engineering Design & Modification

Review and approve design calculations, data sheets, drawings, and technical

specifications for modifications or new procurement of pressure vessels, heat exchangers,

and tanks.

Generate and review Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs), Piping Material

Specifications (PMS), and Material Take-Offs (MTOs) to meet international standards (e.g.,

ASME, ANSI, API). Develop and review plot plans, equipment layouts and 3D models.

Route critical process, utility, and offsite pipelines.

Stress Analysis: Perform piping flexibility and stress analysis to ensure systems can

withstand high pressures, extreme temperatures, and vibrations.

Execute plant modifications via the formal Management of Change (MOC) protocol,

ensuring no compromise to process safety or plant design basis.

Prepare and approve technical deliverables for replacement projects, including scope of

work, technical bid evaluations (TBE), and vendor drawing reviews.

2. Turnaround & Maintenance Support

Define the technical scope for critical static equipment during scheduled plant shutdowns,

turnarounds, and outages.

Develop inspection and repair procedures for specialized high-pressure equipment,

including shell-and-tube heat exchangers, reformer tubes, and atmospheric storage tanks.

Internal

Supervise critical repair activities on-site, ensuring field welding, post-weld heat treatment

(PWHT), and non-destructive testing (NDT) comply with structural codes.

Collaborate with QA/QC and Inspection teams to review inspection findings, wall-thickness

reports, and eddy-current testing results to determine asset health.

3. Asset Integrity & Plant Reliability Support

Support Fitness-for-Service (FFS) evaluations and remaining-life assessments for older or

degraded stationary equipment.

Support root cause analysis (RCA) on mechanical static equipment failures, structural

leaks, and chronic piping vibrating issues to implement definitive corrective actions.

4. Safety, Compliance & Mentorship

Enforce strict compliance with international codes, environmental criteria, and corporate

Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) standards.

Participate as a core technical member in process safety workshops, including Hazard and

Operability Studies (HAZOP), HAZID, and Risk-Based Inspections (RBI).

Coach, mentor, and transfer knowledge to junior and mid-level mechanical engineers

within the department to foster professional technical growth.

Job Requirements & Qualifications

Education & Certifications

Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from a recognized, accredited university.

Experience & Language

Minimum 5 years of post-graduate experience in mechanical engineering within a heavy

continuous-process chemical plant, petrochemical facility, or refinery environment.

Experience in the fertilizer industry (specifically Ammonia, Urea, or Nitrates manufacturing

units) is strongly preferred.

Proven track record of managing massive capital equipment replacement projects and

participating in large-scale plant turnarounds.

Language: Must possess excellent fluent English communication skills (both written and

verbal) to draft technical engineering reports, lead meetings, and coordinate with

international vendors.

Internal

Technical Software & Industrial Codes

Software Competency: Advanced proficiency in PV Elite (pressure vessel design), CAESAR

II (piping stress analysis) and NozzlePRO.

Codes & Standards: Comprehensive working command of ASME Section VIII Div 1 &

2 (Pressure Vessels), ASME B31.3 (Process Piping), API 650/620 (Storage Tanks),

and TEMA Standards (Heat Exchangers).

Core Competencies

Exceptional diagnostic, analytical, and troubleshooting capabilities for complex process

plant problems.

Clear leadership attributes with experience supervising external multi-disciplinary EPC

contractors and vendor engineers.
