Engineering Manager - Offshore FEED project

Engineering Manager - Offshore FEED project Job Purpose

The Engineering Manager is responsible for leading and managing all engineering activities during the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) phase of offshore projects. The role ensures technical excellence, alignment with client requirements, cost-effective design, and readiness for EPC execution, while maintaining strict adherence to offshore standards, safety regulations, and project timelines.

• Lead and manage a multidisciplinary engineering team (Process, Mechanical, Structural, Electrical, Instrumentation, Pipeline, Marine, Naval, etc.)
• Coordinate engineering activities to ensure consistency and integration across all disciplines
• Establish engineering execution strategy, procedures, and deliverables plan for the FEED phase

• Oversee preparation and review of critical FEED deliverables, including:
  • Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) and P&IDs
  • Offshore platform layouts (fixed/jacket, FPSO, topsides, subsea systems)
  • Equipment datasheets and specifications
  • Structural and marine studies
  • Weight control reports and plot plans
• Ensure deliverables meet client specifications, industry codes, and classification society requirements (e.g., ABS, DNV, API, ISO)

• Maintain overall technical integrity of the project design
• Ensure compliance with offshore standards, safety regulations, and environmental requirements
• Lead technical reviews, design verification, and assurance processes
• Support and participate in HAZID, HAZOP, SIL, and risk assessments

• Develop and manage engineering schedules, budgets, and resource plans
• Monitor progress against milestones and take corrective actions when required
• Support cost estimation and project execution strategy development (CAPEX/OPEX considerations)
• Identify and mitigate technical risks and uncertainties

• Act as primary technical interface with client, licensors, classification bodies, and third parties
• Present engineering concepts, design solutions, and progress updates to stakeholders
• Manage design changes and ensure alignment with commercial and contractual requirements

• Ensure effective coordination between offshore facilities, subsea systems, pipelines, and onshore interfaces
• Manage interfaces between FEED packages and ensure seamless transition to EPC phase
• Coordinate with procurement, construction, and commissioning teams during early planning

• Ensure all engineering activities adhere to company QHSE standards
• Promote a strong safety culture and ensure safety-in-design principles are applied
• Ensure compliance with regulatory authorities and environmental standards

• Strong leadership and team management skills in a complex offshore environment
• Deep knowledge of FEED methodologies and offshore project lifecycle
• Expertise in offshore design (fixed platforms, FPSO, subsea systems, pipelines)
• Strong understanding of international engineering codes and classification standards
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
• Commercial awareness and cost optimization mindset
• Problem-solving with strong risk assessment capability
