DREDGING ESTIMATION ENGINEER

Responsibilities and Duties

In-depth follow-up with the production team on dredging performance on site to analyze data based on digital output from the vessels, cut plans, and consider the external dependencies in relation to soil characteristics, reclamation criteria, and specific project constraints.

Conclude and determine the production drivers on the project and the production limiters with respect to the project constraints. Compare with the initial production estimates and provide relevant feedback to the commercial department.

Pump wear and tear analysis, pipeline wear and tear. Cutter head production analysis with different pick points and cutter head types in relation to the soil parameters.

Be a core member to develop in-house programmed performance analysis tools. Remote online analysis, not just a monitoring tool. The tools need to flag up events and real/actual working methods that can be improved with the least amount of lag.

These tools must assist the dredging superintendent and the crew on site with instant analysis and feedback, correlated to the automation system updates.

Develop in-house modifications and upgrades to the current dredging fleet in cooperation with the team members of the dredging performance department. Safe practice implementation.

Set up useful databases to enable big data analyses.
