Monitoring & Diagnostics Specialist (Upstream Reliability Management)

To provide professional condition monitoring services to ensure early detection of equipment defects enhance asset reliability and minimize unplanned downtime through advanced diagnostic techniques.

This role is carried out in alignment with OQEPs Mission Vision and Values adhering to internal strategies national regulations HSE standards and international best practices while utilizing digital platforms to drive operational excellence.

Main tasks and responsibilities

        Vibration Analysis:

• Conduct scheduled condition monitoring inspection for the rotating equipment including but not limited to: motors centrifugal pumps screw compressors reciprocating compressors and blowers.
• Collect the vibration data from all rotating equipment using Emerson CSI 2140.
• Familiar with Emerson AMS software and knows how to build a new equipment route configuration.
• Analyze FFT spectrums and waveforms to identify the abnormal condition such as imbalance misalignment bearing wear looseness resonance and lubrication issuesetc.
• Familiar with advanced data analysis such as phase analysis (cross channel) and bump test techniques.
• Aware how to navigate and analyse vibration data from BN system 1.
• Conduct Ultrasound inspection to detect the high frequency signals associated with: Air or gas leak in pressurize system- Bearing lubrication issue and early-stage fatigue- Electrical arcing or corona in electrical panels switch gears- Valve or steam trap malfunction
• Analyze decibel level and sound patterns to determine defect type and severity.
• Record ultrasound readings and maintain trending logs.
• Support in lubrication greasing program to identify over or under greasing quantity.
• Perform routine infrared thermal scanning of the rotating and electrical equipment to detect temperature anomalies.
• Identify from the thermal photos the following condition such as overheating loose connection overload hot spot-on motor transformer switchgear and MCC panelsetc.
• Generate thermal images report and highlight any indicating of temperature deviation.
• Collect the oil samples from operating equipment.
• Review the test results to identify the root cause if any based on analysis results.
• Recommend oil change intervals filtration improvement or corrective maintenance as needed.
• Measure and analyze electrical current signatures of induction motors to detect rotor bar defects stator winding faults and air gap eccentricity etc.
