Can you design fire & gas detection, firewater, and escape strategies that meet code and still work offshore? Do you have experience improving SLP procedures, templates, and lessons learned across projects?
We are looking for a Senior Safety Loss Prevention Engineer to lead process-safety and loss-prevention design and assurance on offshore projects (especially FPSOs) from concept through EPC, translating hazard studies into compliant fire, gas, and escape solutions.
