We are seeking a Corrosion (Plant/Pipeline/asset integrity) Engineer to join the Southern Area Asset Integrity Division (SAAID) of SAOP Technical Support Department.

The Southern Area Asset Integrity Division is responsible for providing effective and proactive corrosion management support to safeguard assets while adopting best industry practices and cutting-edge technologies.

The Corrosion Engineer primary role is to perform integrity and corrosion analysis studies to assess current challenges and develop a mitigation plan by implementing cost effective solutions and deployment of advanced and proven technologies to prevent or significantly reduce the impact of corrosion.

Key Responsibilities

As a successful candidate you will be required to perform the following:

• Benchmarking and implementation of strategies that will enhance the long-term reliability and assets efficiency of our assets.
• Research and deploy emerging Technologies related to corrosion mitigation and non-metallic deployment.
• Act as expert corrosion and asset integrity management resource for corrosion risk assessment and mitigation
• Develop Pipeline Integrity Plans (PIP) aligned with the organization integrity performance objectives, assigning responsibilities, and timeframes for the responsible stakeholder.
• Review PIP trends and initiate detailed engineering studies accordingly
• Ensure Integrity Operating Windows (IOW) exceedances are addressed by the relevant process owners and track recommendations.
• Facilitate the investigation of corrosion failure and deploy lesson learned from the root cause analysis to the system to avoid reoccurrence.
• Coordinate the updating of pipeline integrity risk register and ensure timely review upon occurrence of incidents in industry or other similar facilities to reflect that in the risk register and identify the applicable pipelines.
• Perform periodical analytical study of assessment findings to overcome challenging inspection programs
• Provide consultation on specialized area related to corrosion control.
• Monitor the corrosion parameters such as: pH, O2, bacteria, residual of biocide chemical, and take corrective actions accordingly.
• Review the inspection data and make corrosion control recommendations/reports accordingly.

Minimum Requirements

As a successful candidate you will hold a:

• Bachelor's degree In Mechanical Engineering or related Engineering from an accredited university.an advanced degree is a plus.
• Minimum of 15 years-experience in corrosion engineering, including at least three years as senior corrosion engineer.
• Practical experience through entry-level positions or corrosion engineering roles in industries such as: oil and gas, aerospace, chemical processing, marine, or infrastructure.
• Comprehensive knowledge of corrosion principles, including: electrochemistry, material properties, corrosion mechanisms, and corrosion prevention methods
• Background in various laboratory and field-testing techniques used to assess corrosion behavior, such as: accelerated corrosion testing, electrochemical corrosion monitoring, and non-destructive testing methods.
• Familiarity with corrosion prevention and control strategies, including material selection, protective coatings, cathodic protection, corrosion inhibitors, and corrosion monitoring systems is a requirement
• Understanding of industry standards and codes related to corrosion, such as NACE International standards, ASTM International standards, and API (American Petroleum Institute) standards.
• Awareness about the latest advancements in corrosion science and technologies through professional development courses, certifications, workshops, conferences, and memberships in relevant industry organizations.
• Familiarity with Corrosion Engineering standards within Saudi Aramco & international standards as well, such as AMPP (NACE), ASME & ASTM.
