The design of pneumatic umbilical reelers, hydraulic winches, storage baskets, sheaves and various other offshore equipment for the oil and gas industry. Responsible for the full design life cycle from conception to completion. Skills and achievements include:Designing equipment from precision components to 40 tonne fabrications.Carrying out various hand calculations including structural frame calcs, winch calcs and drum torque calcs to assist in the specification of pneumatic motors and gearboxes and to verify the equipment is fit for purpose. Working to various engineering standards including dnv 2.7-1, dnv 2.7-3, dnv 2.22, ISO13628-7Involved in factory acceptance testing and dealing with clients and sub-contractors.Undertaking Static FEA stress analysis simulations to verify equipment is structurally soundsimulating frame drop analysis using Abaqus CAEHelping to automate the design and draughting process by developing and integrating custom design templates using Visual Basic and I-logic.Designing hydraulic panels and pneumatic circuits.

Working with automated specialist machinery for fine fragrance and colorant packaging. The job involved working alongside initiatives managers and line leaders to solve design problems and produce new and modified machine parts to suit new products and procedures. Skills and achievements include.Working on large assemblies containing several subassemblies including weldments, machined and sheet metal parts.Producing clear concise drawings to engineering standards.Working with conveyors, pneumatic systems, rotating parts and indexing mechanisms.Designing fully parametric driven models to increase future design efficiency for machine change partsHaving a sound knowledge of geometric tolerances and material selection.Modifying line layouts and keeping the site master plan up to date using AutoCADWorking on several quick release design projects which were used to decrease product changeover times.
