  • Documentation & Reporting - Complete offshore test sheets, inspection records, switching logs, and commissioning documentation to project standards.
  • Fault Response Offshore - Support troubleshooting and corrective actions on HV plant during offshore construction, commissioning, and early operations.
  • Contractor & OEM Coordination - Interface with offshore contractors, marine crews, and package teams to ensure safe and compliant execution of HV tasks.
  • Quality Assurance Offshore - Verify installation quality, cable terminations, torqueing, insulation resistance results, and readiness for energisation.
  • System Readiness Offshore - Support offshore walkdowns, punch-list closure, and pre-energisation readiness reviews.

  • Offshore Safety Systems - Experience working under offshore electrical safety rules, LOTO systems, and marine permit-to-work procedures.
  • Documentation Skills - Ability to produce accurate offshore test records, inspection sheets, and commissioning documentation.
  • Communication - Clear English communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Offshore Certification - Valid GWO, offshore medical, and marine survival certificates.
