Ereyi Ventures Nigeria Limited is an indigenous Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Logistics (EPCL) contractor providing integrated technical services to the Nigerian oil and gas industry. The company brings a multidisciplinary team of engineering, inspection, and construction professionals to deliver brownfield and greenfield projects across onshore and offshore facilities, with a focus on asset integrity, tank and vessel upgrades, mechanical and instrumentation works, and terminal automation. Leveraging local content expertise alongside international codes and standards (API, ASME, NACE/AMPP, and IEC), Ereyi Ventures is positioned to execute the Automated Crude Oil Storage Tanks Upgrade and Repair Services at an offshore terminal, combining indigenous capacity with the technical rigor required for safety-critical hydrocarbon storage infrastructure.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:

Reference no: PIP-04

Location: Offshore, Delta

Role Objective

Engineer and assure all piping modifications, tie-ins, supports and mechanical interfaces associated with the tank upgrade and repair scope.

Core Roles and

Responsibilities

• Prepare and review Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) redlines reflecting as-built tie-in modifications.
• Coordinate with civil/structural teams on pipe rack, pipe support, and sleeper design for offshore/marine environmental loading conditions.
• Conduct piping stress analysis (CAESAR II or equivalent) for tank nozzle loading, thermal expansion, and pipe support design, ensuring compliance with API 650 Appendix P and ASME B31.3/B31.4.
• Interface with QA/QC and NDT teams to define weld inspection scope and acceptance criteria for new/modified piping welds.
• Review and approve piping material specifications, line lists, and specialty item datasheets (valves, strainers, flexible connectors) for the tank tie-in scope.
• Develop and review piping layouts, isometrics, and stress analysis for tank inlet/outlet manifolds, vent systems, and firewater/foam ring mains associated with the storage tank upgrade.
• Support hydrotest planning, including test pack preparation, isolation philosophy, and pressure test procedures for piping tied into the storage tanks.
• Lead piping walk-downs and field verification surveys of existing tank piping to identify corrosion, misalignment, and support deficiencies requiring repair or replacement.
• Qualifications and

Experience

in piping engineering design for oil & gas facilities, with a minimum of five (5) years specifically on tank farm/terminal piping systems (not general process plant piping).

COREN registration as a full member is compulsory; membership in a recognized piping/pressure equipment body (e.g., ASME, PEI) is required in addition.

Valid BOSIET/HUET, offshore medical fitness certificate, and immediate readiness for rotational offshore deployment.

Mandatory demonstrable expert-level proficiency in CAESAR II stress analysis software, evidenced by the candidate producing and defending a sample stress analysis report during a live technical interview — certificates of training alone are insufficient without demonstrated application.

Verified offshore project

of no less than five (5) years, with a minimum of two (2) full offshore mobilization cycles specifically on live/operational terminals (shutdown or brownfield tie-in
