Summary
Piping engineer with 11 years in layout and stress analysis for refineries, LNG and petrochemical plants, delivered from Mumbai engineering centres for clients in the Gulf and Europe. I run CAESAR II analyses for hot, high-pressure and rotating-equipment lines, design supports and expansion loops, check nozzle loads against API 610 and 617 and review 3D models in E3D and SmartPlant. I lead teams of 12 designers and engineers and sign off stress-critical line lists for construction.
Experience
- Lead stress analysis for a 400 kbpd refinery expansion and an LNG train in the Gulf: 2,300 critical lines, including 540 °C reformer and FCC lines
- Redesigned compressor suction and discharge piping to bring nozzle loads within API 617; avoided a USD 1.8m skid modification
- Run model reviews at 30/60/90% with clients and set the stress team's checklists and CAESAR II input standards
- Produced plot plans, equipment layouts and pipe-rack studies for ethylene and hydrogen units
- Analysed 700 lines in CAESAR II and specified spring hangers and expansion joints
Line classes handled
| Service | Material | Design |
|---|---|---|
| FCC reactor | P11 / SS321 | 540 °C |
| Hydrogen | P22 | 190 bar |
| LNG rundown | SS304L | −162 °C |
| Seawater | GRE / Cu-Ni | 10 bar |

Tips for a Piping Engineer resume
- Put the hard requirements recruiters screen for in the top third: ASME B31.3, ASME B31.1, API 610 / 617 / 661.
- List current credentials with the issuing body, e.g. Chartered Engineer (India) — Mechanical, CAESAR II Advanced Stress Analysis.
- Give every recent role at least one measured result — for example stress-critical lines.
- Match the job title in your headline to the posting where it is honest to do so.
- Run the built-in resume checker and paste the job description into the keyword match before you download.
