Description:
We are hiring a Mechanical Maintenance Engineer to own heat exchanger servicing and shutdown/turnaround execution: retubing, tube plugging, bundle repair, cleaning and testing in our Mussafah workshop, plus site campaigns — bundle pulls, on-site piping jobs and valve replacement — inside client turnaround windows, onshore and offshore.
You will run work under our long-term heat exchanger maintenance agreements with ADNOC group companies, EGA and Borouge, and on refinery and offshore turnaround campaigns.
What You Will Do
• Own heat exchanger servicing jobs end-to-end: receipt or site inspection, repair scoping, execution, testing, documentation, dispatch.
• Inspect shell & tube bundles and produce as-found condition reports (photos, measurements, tube condition) within 24–48 hours; support quotations with quick man-hour and material estimates.
• Execute retubing, tube plugging, bundle repairs, gasket replacement, mechanical/chemical cleaning, and hydrostatic/pneumatic testing.
• Deliver shutdown and turnaround (STO/TAR) scopes: bundle extraction to box-up, site piping and valve installation/replacement inside the outage window.
• Make repair-vs-replace recommendations; document and secure client approval for scope growth once units are opened.
• Lead supervisors, technicians and multinational crews across day/night shifts; mobilise at short notice.
• Own quality documentation: ITPs, dimensional and test records, as-found/as-left reports and final dossiers.
• Work to permit-to-work, confined-space and client HSE requirements on ADNOC-type sites.
What We Are Looking For
• B.Eng. in Mechanical or Maintenance Engineering — hands-on capability weighs more than paper qualifications.
• 3–7 years in heat exchanger servicing, static equipment maintenance or turnaround contracting.
• Practical shell & tube experience: retubing, tube plugging, bundle repair, leak and pressure testing.
• Site experience with piping jobs and valve installation/replacement.
• Shutdown/turnaround experience in refinery, gas plant or petrochemical environments; confident in PTW and confined-space culture.
• English confident enough for client-facing site communication and reporting.
Preferred / a plus:
• TEMA nomenclature, API 660/661 awareness; plate heat exchanger (PHE) refurbishment exposure.
• Valid ADNOC site passes/inductions; offshore experience.
• Estimation exposure (pricing repair scopes); night-shift crew leadership.
