• Shutdown Support:
  • Work with scaffolders, welders, and mechanical teams to position equipment for maintenance.
  • Assist in load-outs for supply vessels and platform module installations.
  • Identify overhead hazards, swing radius risks, and pinch points.
  • Follow PTW (Permit to Work) and LOTO (Lockout‑Tagout) procedures.
• Documentation:
