Job Description:

Job Title: Estimator – Skids, Piping & Spools
Experience: ~6 years

Industry: Heavy Engineering / Industrial Equipment Manufacturing

Job Purpose

The Estimator – Skids, Piping & Spools will be responsible for preparing accurate material take-offs, weight calculations, and comprehensive cost evaluations for modular systems. This role focuses on executing exact pre-bid costing of skids, complex process piping, spools, and structural assemblies for the Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, and Fertiliser sectors.

Key Responsibilities

Costing & Material Take-Offs
- Analyze structural blueprints, isometric drawings, piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs;), and General Arrangement (GA) drawings to prepare highly accurate Material Take-Offs (MTOs).
- Perform precise weight calculations for piping networks, structural frames, plates, spools, and individual machined parts.
- Calculate total fabrication and assembly costs by accounting for raw materials, fittings, structural steel, weld consumables, machining hours, and non-destructive testing (NDT) requirements.





Vendor Coordination & Bid Support
- Float inquiries to vendors and subcontractors to secure competitive pricing for specialized piping components, instrumentation, valves, and specialized surface treatments.
- Evaluate vendor quotes technically and commercially to build cost structures aligned with project budgets.
- Support the Head of Estimation in compiling final technical and commercial proposal documents under tight tender deadlines.

Cross-Functional Alignment
- Work alongside the Design Engineering team to clarify technical ambiguities, resolve drawing inconsistencies, and verify structural optimization before final pricing.
- Interface with the Procurement and Production teams to factor in live commodity price trends (carbon steel, stainless steel, exotic alloys) and realistic shop-floor fabrication hours.

Required Candidate Profile

Technical & Domain Expertise
- Strong proficiency in readin
