As an Electrical Commissioning Engineer, you will oversee the commissioning and testing of electrical systems for oil and gas facilities. This role involves working on complex offshore and onshore projects, ensuring all systems operate as designed while adhering to ADNOC standards, safety regulations, and international codes.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Oversee the commissioning and testing of electrical systems for oil and gas facilities, including power distribution, transformers, switchgear, and motor control centers.
• Execute system functionality tests, interlock verification, and equipment performance evaluation to ensure full operational readiness.
• Develop and implement commissioning procedures, schedules, and detailed testing plans in collaboration with project stakeholders.
• Coordinate with design, construction, and operations teams to resolve commissioning-related issues and ensure a smooth handover of systems.
• Supervise vendor representatives and subcontractors during testing and commissioning activities.
• Adhere to ADNOCs Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) guidelines, conduct risk assessments, and ensure safety protocols are followed.
• Prepare and maintain commissioning reports, punch lists, as-built drawings, testing data, and handover documentation for the operations team.

• Support operational staff with training and guidance on system functionality and safety.

KEY QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
• Minimum of 8 years of experience in electrical commissioning within the oil and gas industry, with a focus on offshore/onshore facilities.
• Proven track record in commissioning power generation and distribution systems, preferably in ADNOC or Middle East projects.
• Strong knowledge of electrical systems, including power distribution, protection relays, and grounding systems.
• Proficiency in interpreting electrical diagrams, technical drawings, and control system schematics.
• Excellent project management and coordination skills.
• Familiarity with international standards (IEC, IEEE, NEC, etc.).
• Offshore safety training certification (e.g., H2S Awareness) and technical certifications such as COMPEX, PLC programming, or electrical system protection are advantageous.
