Electrical Engineer (FPSO Project)

Summary: This role involves overseeing electrical engineering and commissioning activities for FPSO projects, ensuring the successful installation, testing, integration, and handover of electrical systems. The position requires collaboration with various teams to meet project specifications and safety requirements while managing electrical completion activities. A strong background in electrical engineering, particularly within offshore or marine projects, is essential for success in this role.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and coordinate electrical engineering and commissioning activities for FPSO electrical systems.
• Ensure electrical equipment including generators, transformers, switchboards, MCCs, UPS, batteries, lighting, and power distribution systems are installed, tested, and commissioned safely and efficiently.
• Review electrical design documents, single-line diagrams, commissioning procedures, test packs, system dossiers, and completion records.
• Coordinate closely with engineering, construction, vendors, and operations teams to ensure electrical systems are fully integrated and ready for commissioning.
• Support Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), pre-commissioning, energization, functional testing, and system handover activities.
• Troubleshoot and resolve electrical issues encountered during installation, testing, and commissioning phases.
• Monitor progress of electrical completion activities and ensure alignment with project schedules, milestones, and commissioning priorities.
• Ensure all electrical commissioning activities comply with applicable international codes, client specifications, and HSE requirements.
• Verify punch list items are completed and support mechanical completion, system turnover, and final project handover.

Key Skills:

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
• Proven experience in electrical engineering and commissioning within FPSO, offshore, Oil & Gas, or marine projects.
• Strong knowledge of power generation, high- and low-voltage distribution systems, switchgear, transformers, motors, UPS, and electrical protection systems.
• Experience with electrical testing, energization, synchronization, protection relay testing, and system integration.
• Previous experience in a lead or supervisory electrical commissioning role is preferred.
• Familiarity with commissioning processes, system completion management, and handover documentation.
• Good understanding of international standards such as IEC, IEEE, API, and relevant offshore electrical codes.
• Excellent coordination, problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary project environment and manage multiple commissioning activities simultaneously.
