• Establish and maintain mechanical engineering standards aligned with OEM, Class, Flag State, and regulatory requirements
• Approve mechanical‑related maintenance procedures, job plans, and work scopes in accordance with asset‑ management governance

• Lead advanced diagnostics and troubleshooting for critical mechanical systems (rotating equipment, engines, pumps, cranes, hydraulics)
• Guide rig‑based teams in root‑cause analysis and ensure corrective actions address underlying failure modes
• Partner with Technical Superintendents to resolve high‑impact downtime events and validate recovery plans

• Review and recommend mechanical PM strategies, task lists, and maintenance intervals based on risk, performance history, and OEM requirements
• Validate CMMS job plans, BOMs, and planned maintenance workflows, ensuring data accuracy and consistency
• Ensure maintenance execution meets safety‑ critical system requirements and equipment performance standards

• Conduct mechanical integrity audits covering pressure systems, lifting equipment, rotating machinery, and hydraulic components
• Verify and confirm certification currency for critical mechanical systems, and ensure compliance with class, flag state, API, and regulatory inspection requirements
• Identify mechanical risks, document non‑ conformities, and ensure timely completion of corrective actions

• Provide technical direction for mechanical upgrades, overhauls, and CAPEX initiatives
• Review vendor proposals, engineering deliverables, and project scopes for compliance with technical standards
• Review and recommend approval of mechanical design changes and hardware modifications through the Management of Change (MOC) process

• Analyze critical spare requirements, obsolescence risks, and stock requirements with Supply Chain, Procurement and Planning
• Recommend fleetwide reliability improvements and lead initiatives to eliminate repeated mechanical failures
• Support long‑ term lifecycle planning and mechanical asset replacement recommendations

• Ensure mechanical drawings, manuals, and certifications are maintained accurately within controlled repositories
• Issue mechanical integrity reports, audit findings, technical advisories, and troubleshooting summaries to Corporate Asset Manager / Head of Maintenance
• Maintain high quality data for mechanical assets within the CMMS and engineering records
