Mechanical Engineer - Hassyan Plant, Dubai, will supervise and support mechanical maintenance activities in the plant. To lead the design, development, manufacturing and installation of new or modified mechanical components or systems. To support operation and maintenance teams in troubleshooting issues related to mechanical components or systems. To ensure mid and long-term integrity of mechanical elements of the plant. All in accordance with the O&M plans, HSE guidelines and quality standards to ensure equipment and plant performance and reliability.

Design, development and installation related

• Lead mechanical activities from O&M side related to the implementation of any modification, including the activities related to the design, development, manufacturing and installation of any new or modified equipment.
• Develop necessary specifications for mechanical components and equipment.
• Contribute in the bid/evaluation processes including preparation of bid documents, completion of technical evaluations for proposals and providing recommendations for selection.

Maintenance Management

• Monitor the mechanical preventive and corrective maintenance and overhauling work activities to ensure safe and efficient application of procedures and implementation of optimal mechanical maintenance.
• Review Mechanical Maintenance Procedures and suggest improvements.
• Ensure that all documentation is completed in SAP correctly such as the Log, outlining the fault, method of repair and the time, labour and materials used in order to support timely availability of information.
• Monitor and support the response to all emergency breakdowns to ensure plant availability, thereby minimising downtime and possibility of liquidity damages.
• Develop and promote a condition-based preventive maintenance culture by conducting troubleshooting and root cause analyses, finding solutions to reduce reactive maintenance.
• Support in activities related to budgeting, forecasting, accounting, and work order management.

Troubleshooting and Technical Guidance

• Troubleshoot critical problems/breakdowns of mechanical machinery and investigate, diagnose faults to determine the best course of action/repairs while ensuring compliance with NOMAC’s quality and HSE standards. Perform Root Cause Analysis of Failures.
• Lead performance monitoring of mechanical equipment and components. Review and analyse mechanical machinery maintenance data and conduct site engineering studies to determine the feasibility of introducing modifications to increase reliability and efficiency of plant, ensuring continuous improvement and operational excellence.
• Prepare feasibility studies for new installations, replacements or repair of existing mechanical machinery including technical evaluations, specifications and materials for modifications in addition to process diagrams and cost estimates and ensure proper follow-up reports and evaluations on completed modifications.
• Provide field engineering oversight and direction for activities such as support, testing, installation, inspections, commissioning, etc.

Outage Management

• Participate in the effective forecasting of manpower, budget and material requirements to ensure timely availability of resources and spares for effective execution of mechanical outage maintenance plans.
• Support in the planning and execution of the shutdown maintenance of critical mechanical machinery, as per the recommendation of the OEM, and provide technical support to ensure the EHS, scope, cost, and timeline objectives are met.

Documentation

• Ensure availability of engineering documentation.
• Keep proper records of documentation generated related to mechanical engineering activities (i.e. root cause analysis, troubleshooting support, performance analysis, integrity inspections, etc.).
• Ensure that all maintenance documentation for the mechanical activities are completed correctly including the Maintenance Log, outlining the fault, method of repair and the time, labour and materials used to support timely availability of information.

Health, Safety, Security & Environment

• Ensure adherence to all relevant health, safety, security and environmental procedures, instructions and controls so that the safety of employees and environmental compliance can be guaranteed.
• Together with HSSE department, ensure that safety rules and regulations are fully explained to plant employees/contractor staff and appropriate safety and protective equipment is worn; safety notices are prominently displayed in all work areas and that all accidents and incidents are efficiently investigated and analysed whilst ensuring that measures are implemented to avoid any recurrence.
