Piping Specialist - Engineering & Design - Oil & Gas - Onshore Oil - Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia 

We were tasked with sourcing a specialist for a high-profile piping engineering role in a $1bn petrochemicals expansion project in Saudi Arabia. The candidate needed over 10 years of experience in refining and petrochemicals, expertise in international piping codes (NACE, API, ASME), and a proven record managing multidisciplinary interfaces during the EPCC phase.

The selected candidate immediately added value by reviewing and guiding technical documentation, ensuring compliance with client and industry specifications. They coordinated between project management, engineering, and construction teams, overseeing piping design, procurement, and fabrication while resolving interface and compliance issues. Their proactive approach ensured quality, safety, and environmental standards were met, reducing risks and delays.
