• Working with operations and engineering to ensure the management of change process is understood and followed with regard to integrity and corrosion mitigation equipment and programs.
• Monitoring and reporting on key performance indicators.
• Managing, providing oversight and continuously improving pipeline integrity management plans. This may specifically include conducting inline inspections and repairs and chemical inhibition, cathodic protection, depth of cover and geohazard assessments.

Education

• A four-year bachelor’s degree in engineering or equivalent technical diploma is typically required

Certifications

• Preference may be given to employees who have their non-destructive testing certification by Natural Resources Canada

Additional Requirements

• In-depth knowledge of applicable industry Codes, Standards and Regulations related to pipeline integrity (e.g., CSA Z662, NEB’s Onshore Pipeline Regulations and Damage Prevention Regulations) would be considered an asset

You have knowledge that goes as deep as a safely designed pipeline system. You understand industry codes, standards and regulations, along with your company’s unique safety policies and procedures. You also understand the engineering of the pipeline itself – how its metal can corrode and how methods like chemical inhibition and cathodic protection can protect it in the long term.

You also are constantly learning, assessing the work that’s been done and working to make every subsequent project the best it can be.
