Role: Reliability/Integrity Engineer
Location: Port Harcourt
VURIN Ltd. Where Significance Meets Opportunity!
VURIN Ltd. is a dynamic and forward-thinking organisation operating in the oil and gas sector committed to
delivering significant value through technical excellence disciplined execution and strong business partnerships.
Recognised as a Great Place to Work we foster a culture built around empowerment collaboration and
excellence.
The Role
The Reliability/Integrity Engineer will be responsible for diagnosing failure modes improving equipment
reliability and converting inspection condition-monitoring and integrity data into practical maintenance and
client recommendations.
The role will assess asset condition degradation mechanisms and associated risks lead or support root-cause
analysis expand appropriate predictive-maintenance practices and produce technically sound reliability and
integrity reports. The role will also ensure that changes to design maintenance inspection or operating
requirements are appropriately assessed verified and documented
What Youll Do
Reliability & Integrity Analysis
Assess asset condition failure modes degradation mechanisms and integrity risks using available
technical data.
Analyse inspection condition-monitoring and equipment data to identify reliability and integrity
concerns.
Diagnose recurring or significant equipment failures and determine appropriate technical actions.
Prioritise reliability and integrity concerns based on evidence risk and potential consequence.
Develop practical maintenance and client recommendations from reliability and integrity findings.
Root-Cause Analysis & Corrective Action
Lead or support disciplined Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for priority equipment failures and reliability
issues.
Identify underlying causes and contributing factors associated with repeat failures.
Translate RCA findings into clear corrective and preventive actions with defined owners and
timelines.
Monitor agreed actions through to closure.
Verify the effectiveness of completed corrective and preventive actions.
Predictive Maintenance & Condition Monitoring
Identify appropriate applications for condition monitoring and predictive-maintenance techniques.
Monitor asset condition and trends to identify developing reliability or integrity concerns.
Establish appropriate response requirements for relevant alerts and identified conditions.
Review the quality completeness and usability of condition-monitoring data.
Convert condition-monitoring findings into practical maintenance and operational recommendations.
Technical Reporting & Change Management
Produce clear technical reports covering reliability integrity condition assessment and failure analysis.
Ensure reports are supported by appropriate technical data calculations assumptions and review.
Assess the technical implications of changes to design maintenance inspection or operating
requirements.
Ensure applicable Management of Change (MOC) and independent-verification requirements are
followed.
Maintain traceable records of technical recommendations MOC activities and verification evidence.
Risk Technical Assurance & Client Support
Identify data gaps uncertainty and integrity risks that could affect technical conclusions or decisions.
Participate in technical assurance and review activities and escalate issues requiring specialist or
management decisions.
Provide timely technical responses and recommendations to Operations Maintenance and clients.
Communicate technical findings limitations risks and recommendations clearly to relevant
stakeholders.
Coach field teams and contribute to reliability lessons learned competence development and
continuous improvement
