Fyfe is a multi-disciplinary consultancy providing comprehensive engineering, environmental, planning and surveying services throughout Australia. Fyfe work with a wide range of clients in the Energy & Resources and Property & Infrastructure sectors to provide high quality, commercially pragmatic solutions with a strong focus on client service and delivery.
Our Energy and Resources Division works with major exploration and distribution clients to deliver specialist mining, oil and gas projects across the country. These include process plant modifications, upstream flowlines, leases, network gathering and distribution systems, major gas transmission pipelines, oil and gas above ground processing facilities, as well as maintenance, integrity and construction related work programs.
We are recruiting for a Pipeline Engineer to be based in our Philippines team and work remotely to support our team and clients in Australia. The successful candidate will initially be hired by our partner agency in the Philippines as Fyfe builds our presence in the Philippines.
This role focuses on the design of buried polyethylene (HDPE / PE100) gas and water gathering networks for Australian coal seam gas and water infrastructure clients. These networks run for tens to hundreds of kilometres of buried pipe across farmland, carrying flammable gas or process water, and connecting wellsite's to processing facilities.
You will apply an established engineering design rule set to new network designs, direct our GIS and drafting team on routing, layout and attribution, and escalate the cases the rules do not cover to our Brisbane technical lead. You will not certify designs — that accountability sits with our Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) in Australia.
We are looking for a qualified engineer with 2 to 5 years' experience designing pipelines, piping or buried pressure networks. Onshore gas experience is ideal, but experience with buried water, LPG or process fluid networks is equally welcome.
This is a design role, not a piping stress analysis role. If your primary experience is Caesar II, AutoPIPE or piping stress and flexibility analysis, this position will not suit you, though we would be glad to consider you for other openings.
Please do not screen yourself out of this role because you have not worked with the following. We expect to train the right person in all of them.
This position is deeply technical for at least the first two years. If your ambition over that period is to move into project management or engineering management, this role is unlikely to suit you. If it goes well, you would in time build and lead a small design team in the Philippines, while continuing to do technical work.
This is an excellent opportunity to progress your career with a growing national engineering consultancy. Fyfe can offer an environment committed to workplace diversity with a team of dedicated and experienced professionals.
