Piping & Supports Analyst

Role Description

To collaborate to the Lead Fast Reactor (LFR) design activities for the plant, focusing on design aspects related to piping stress analysis and define and verify supports of nuclear island, steam / condensate cycle, utilities and water treatment.

Main Activities

• Perform piping layout and routing, define supports and perform stress engineering in all project phase for balance of plant.
• Carry out feasibility studies, conceptual design, basic and front-end design, detail engineering and design
• Develop internal standards and specific design criteria for piping routing and layout, support definition and stress engineering.
• Optimize of configuration for piping, supporting structures and routing for balance of power plant.
• Develop piping design for the plant nuclear island, conventional island, balance of the plant eand auxiliaries.
• Cooperate to the plant layout, piping and equipment layout, piping classes, material selection.
• Coordinate the piping and support activities carried out by consociates and suppliers.
• Perform stress analysis of pipes and verify stress analyses done by consociates and suppliers.
• Carry out definition and verification of piping supports.
• Preparation of technical specification, datasheet, technical queries, technical bids.
• Coordinate, plan and supervise the work of junior engineers.
• Collaborate to the identification of breakthrough solutions to the most complex piping challenges.
• Write and review design criteria and analysis assessment reports.
• Collaborate with multi-disciplinary engineering teams.
• Participates in and fosters a work environment that is based upon openness, trust, communication, teamwork, empowerment, innovation, and satisfaction.

Desired Qualification

Education:    

• Degree in Mechanical, Energy or Civil Engineering
