Senior Estimation Engineer

Job Summary

Responsibilities:

• Guide and mentor estimating engineers helping them to develop their technical skills and understanding of cost estimation processes.
• Conduct training sessions on cost estimation best practices software tools and industry trends.
• Lead internal reviews and validation processes for cost estimates ensuring they are complete accurate and aligned with project scope and objectives.
• Participate in peer reviews with estimating engineers to provide constructive feedback and ensure quality.
• Prepare detailed and accurate cost estimates for projects including pipelines drilling platforms refineries and petrochemical plants across all phases from concept to .
• Participate in project kickoff and review meetings to understand specific project requirements and ensure that cost considerations are integrated into planning and .
• Work closely with project managers engineers and other stakeholders to gather necessary information and ensure the estimates align with project goals and constraints.
• Analyze technical drawings specifications and project plans to understand the full scope of work.
• Estimate costs for equipment materials construction labor and other activities such as engineering procurement and commissioning.
• Work closely with engineering and design teams to ensure that the estimates cover all project requirements.
• Work with procurement teams to obtain quotes from vendors and subcontractors for materials equipment and services.
• Evaluate vendor proposals and subcontractor bids to ensure they align with the project scope and incorporate pricing and terms from these quotes into the overall project cost estimate.
