Carry out onboard / on-site inspection of marine and industrial boilers, including refinery, power plants and heavy industries (water tube, smoke tube, exhaust gas boilers and economizers, WHRB &HRSG), assess the condition of tubes, headers, drums, refractory, casing and mountings and identify the root cause of failures.
Determine the most effective repair solution (retubing, partial renewal, plugging, refractory repair, pressure part fabrication, etc.) and prepare a clear, costed work scope with material take-off, manpower plan and timeline.
Prepare and submit technical proposals, method statements, risk assessments and repair procedures in line with class society (DNV/ABS/LR), client and HSE requirements.
Independently lead the site execution team - supervisors, boiler makers, welders, fitters and subcontractors - ensuring quality of workmanship, welding/NDT compliance and adherence to schedule.
Plan and control project cost: track manpower, materials, consumables and subcontract spend against the estimate, control variations and protect project margin.
Prepare and maintain all project documentation: internal job orders, daily progress reports, inspection/measurement records, NDT and hydrotest reports, variation orders and final service/completion reports for client and class.
Coordinate with Sales & Estimation on scope clarifications and variation pricing and with Purchase on timely material and consumable availability.
Attend joint inspections with client representatives, class surveyors and port/refinery authorities; close out punch lists and secure final acceptance.
Enforce HSE compliance at site, including confined space entry, hot work permits and toolbox talks.
Support emergency/breakdown call-outs and ship repair mobilizations at short notice.
