Ariosh Limited, Lagos, Nigeria 2014 – 2020
PDMS Administrator, 2019 – 2020
Produced and administered an as-built, front-end engineering design, DED project as well as updated client’s projects catalogue. Generated piping isometrics, piping GAs, and a piping specification and updated piping specification, components, or fittings to match ASME, NORSOK, or JIS standards on E3D/PDMS.
● Actively participated in offering creative ideas and suggestions in team meetings to ensuring on-time delivery updates on designs and enhancements.
Piping Engineer, 2016 – 2019
Applied Cyclone and Aveva E3D to lead dimensional verification design compliance of pipe spools on fabricated pipes. Directed a high-performing team of piping designers to develop conceptual E3D models of piping drawings from scan data of facility and P&ID by using the piping material specification document. Analysed piping systems, layout, and equipment spacing requirements in line with project standards through collaboration with project department lead engineers. Formulated and adjusted plot plan, Piping GA, isometric drawings, BOM's, and RFQ's for equipment from E3D with AutoCAD. Prepared material take-off, tie-in list, and specialty item list according to standards. Examined project's functional requirements and details against code principles.
● Analysed and administered design information from various contractors as well as offered recommendations to resolve difficulties and improve efficiency.
