* Oversee all welding activities including:
+ Structural welding (jackets, topsides, decks)
+ Piping and equipment welding (if applicable)
- Ensure welding is performed as per approved:
- WPS (Welding Procedure Specification)
-
PQR (Procedure Qualification Record)
-
Monitor fit-up, welding, and joint completion.
- Coordinate with Planning team to align welding activities with project schedule.
- Ensure readiness of:
- Drawings and latest revisions
- Welding consumables
-
Qualified welders and equipment
-
Plan daily and weekly welding activities.
- Ensure all welders are:
- Qualified and certified as per project requirements
-
Assigned based on welding process and material grade
-
Maintain welder qualification records.
- Monitor welder performance and productivity.
- Ensure compliance with:
- Project specifications
-
Applicable codes (ASME, AWS, API, ISO)
-
Monitor weld quality and defect rates.
- Coordinate with QA/QC for:
- Fit-up inspections
- Visual inspections
- NDT (RT, UT, MPI, DPI)
- Ensure proper handling and storage of welding consumables:
