Job Requirements:

Key Responsibilities:

Work Request Evaluation & Scoping:

• Screen and review mechanical TAR notifications and work orders.
• Validate and clarify job scope with operations, maintenance, and requestors.
• Conduct field/site surveys to verify asset conditions, access, constraints, and isolation requirements.
• Identify and eliminate obsolete or duplicate scope.
• Support scope finalization, late scope management, and change control processes.

Work Pack Development:

• Develop comprehensive mechanical execution packs in alignment with TAR readiness gates and client procedures.
• Work packs must include:
• Job Method Statements (step-by-step)
• Material take-off (MTO) and tools list
• Drawings (P&IDs, Isometrics, PEFS, vendor prints)
• Equipment isolation plans (mechanical, electrical, process)
• QA/QC Hold and Witness Points
• Cleaning, inspection, and testing requirements
• NDT scope, hydrotesting and reinstatement plan
• Safety, rigging, scaffolding, and lifting plans
• Ensure compliance with client’s Work Pack Preparation Procedures.
• Update SAP/CMMS with relevant details (tasks, resources, durations, equipment codes).
• If identified react to change in scope, inform necessary parties and complete the necessary change management documentation.

Materials and Spare Parts Planning:

• Identify required spare parts and consumables using OEM manuals and SAP BOM.
• Validate material specifications and confirm ROS (Required on Site) dates.
• Liaise with Supply Chain Management (SCM) to ensure timely procurement and delivery.
• Track availability of gaskets, stud bolts, blinds, internal trays, tube bundles, and internals for columns/vessels.

HSE & Risk Assessment:

• Conduct Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and integrate HAZOP/HAZID learnings.
• Identify potential hazards (confined spaces, hot work, line breaks).
• Prepare supporting documentation: PTW, isolation certificates, risk mitigation plans.
• Ensure compliance with TAR HSE plans and standards.

Coordination of Resources and Vendors:

• Determine manpower (craft, level, shift) and contractor engagement.
• Confirm availability of:
• Specialty services (e.g., chemical cleaning, retubing, reboiler repair)
• NDT services
• Third-party QA/QC
• Special tools and temporary facilities (e.g., lighting, shelters, workstations)
• Confirm vendor readiness with agreed scope, deliverables, and mobilization plans.
• Support contractor onboarding and briefing sessions.

Schedule Integration & Execution Support:

• Align work packs with TAR schedule using Primavera (P6).
• Identify critical path and high-risk jobs for early execution planning.
• Support batching, area/system-based work packaging, and logical sequencing.
• Provide field support during execution and closeout activities.

Quality, Data & Change Management:

• Document lessons learned for repetitive jobs to improve next TAR.
• Provide the first point of contact for business interfaces on turnaround activities
