[ Construction EngIneering ]

There is a long list of knowledge for the construction side of pipeline projects.  Listing the words here is like a word salad:  planning and documentation, plant and equipment, buoyancy control, weld crew, pipe bending, NDT, MDR, HDD, QC, ERP, CEMP, special crossings and tie-ins.

When the pipeline engineer knows enough about all those and all the rest, it helps the construction manager focus on the logistics and resources issues that always pop up on any construction project.

In the end, though, the most effective way to be competent in a construction role is to be on the construction site.
