• Prepare structural drawings including General Arrangement (GA) drawings fabrication drawings structural layouts sections connection details and installation drawings using AutoCAD.
• Model primary and secondary offshore steel structures based on engineering design inputs and project specifications.
• Coordinate with structural engineers piping layout mechanical electrical and installation disciplines to ensure proper model integration and interface management.
• Incorporate vendor data equipment interface requirements and engineering inputs into structural models and drawings.
• Support lifting and transportation studies by preparing model updates and drawing deliverables as required by engineering teams.
• Participate in interdisciplinary model reviews and clash detection activities to ensure constructability and offshore installation feasibility.
• Extract drawings reports and Material Take-Offs (MTOs) from 3D models and ensure accuracy of deliverables.
• Update models and drawings based on engineering comments fabrication inputs and project revisions during Detailed Engineering stages.
• Ensure compliance with company procedures offshore project standards and modelling guidelines.
• Provide drafting and modelling support during fabrication and construction phases including resolution of yard or site queries.

Qualifications:

• Diploma in Civil Engineering Mechanical Engineering or equivalent qualification.
• Minimum 1215 years of experience in offshore structural design and drafting for oil & gas projects.
