  • Support blasting and coating work on site, coordinate with QC and inspectors, monitor progress, resolve field problems, and follow up on technical actions.
  • Support offshore platform and vessel modification, maintenance, and repair activities.

Experience and competency

  • Ability to determine material quantities, prepare coating material lists/MTOs, communicate with project parties, and resolve site issues.
  • Offshore platform, fabrication yard, brownfield, maintenance, repair, or revamp experience is preferred; major operator/EPC experience and Middle East experience are preferred/advantageous.
  • Familiarity with ISO, SSPC/AMPP, and NORSOK is preferred.

Education and certification

  • A bachelor's degree or higher in engineering is preferred; strong practical coating experience and recognized professional coating certifications may also be considered.
  • At least one recognized coating inspection certification at Level/Grade 2 or above is required, such as AMPP/NACE, FROSIO, or CSWIP (ex-BGas).
