OBJECTIVE

To plan, organize and direct process engineering activities and initiatives, utilizing my processengineering experiences with developed abilities in project/task management and problem

solving. Through astute leadership this will contribute to operations sustainability, reliability andprofitability.

QUALIFICATIONS

Extensive process engineering experience in leading and executing projects mainly in thepetrochemical industry and related oil and gas industry. Achieved success through:

Communicating effectively with both technical and non technical individuals Engineering problem/issue identification, root cause and alternative solutions

analysis and decisive action to bring resolution Project/task/resource planning, organizing and execution to optimize productivity and

meet deadlines/budgetary objectives. Providing people leadership through team building, training and motivating the teamto work in unison towards desired goals/objectives

Persuasive communication in the selling of ideas/solutions and gaining buy in Building strong working relationships through diplomacy to gain peoples trust/co-

operation Flexibility to initiate and manage change for organization betterment Mentoring junior personnel including the development of training modules as aids for

their development

SELECTED ACHIEVEMENTS

Convinced senior operations personnel to increase natural gas throughput to put out fires ina catalyst reduction temperature run away situation and averted destruction of the catalystreactor and prevented total shut down of the plant and plant losses to the tune of millions of USD.

Conceptualized and implemented a solution to recover contaminated process condensate,averting a water shortfall that threatened the ability of the plant to produce the project wascompleted within budget.

Strategically determined the root cause of failure of a heat exchanger by ensuring andcompleting the purchase of an adequate replacement which increased the plant productionlevels and avoided further costly unscheduled plant shut downs.

Instigated and completed a study to revamp ammonia storage facilities which revealedsubstantial ammonia losses and reconciled payment of fines due to the sale of hot ammonia.

Examined and studied plant experiences to prevent use of a Pre-reformer in a plant upgradestudy which later proved too risky and was aborted.

Developed on call coordinating system which secured plant operations on a 24/7 basis andled to an improvement of on stream time factor or KPI for the three plant site.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Position Company Location Year-Year

Process ColtEng Corp., a division Sarnia, Ontario 2008-2009Specialist of WorleyParsons Canada Canada

Analyzed and made changes to PIDs, PFDs, LDTs, Equipment Data Sheets, as well as filled

instrumentation lists for the Edmonton Corefco Project in 2008 (an upgrade of 18 Plant Unitsused to produce cobalt and nickel with solid fertilizer as a byproduct from ore coming out of theCaribbean island of Cuba).

Revised drawings, reviewed technical reports and leveraged expertise in engineering systemsand procedures for major Sarnia refinery projects to champion increased efficiency and safetyas it relates to equipment emissions and feedstock impurities, such as sulfur content in oilsources.

Researched brown field projects in the Sarnia Shell and Suncor industries, developing Basis of Design and Calculation sheets documentation; reviewed drawings, vendor documentation andsafeguarding drawings as a checker; and completed HAZOP recommendations as required.

Senior Process WorleyParsons Trinidad Port-of-Spain 2006-2008Engineer Limited Trinidad W.I.

Provided process engineering support to the Structural Lead Engineer on a British Gas, Gas toLiquids Plant project including completing HAZOP, PID, Line List and isometric drawing checksto the 2006 Carapal Unit installation in Central Trinidad in the West Indies.

Implemented process for the development of letdown stations spanning flare and pressurizedstorage in the main for an island wide natural gas distribution project for The National GasCompany of Trinidad and Tobago to prevent previous unsafe atmospheric venting of both gasand liquid hydrocarbons (components of natural gas feed) through existing Pressure Relief

valves and recover heavy hydrocarbon liquids for processing in downstream industries.

Senior Chemical Yara Trinidad Limited Savonetta 1977-2006 /Process Engineer a division of Norsk Hydro Trinidad W.I.

International

Collaborated in weekly meetings as lead process engineer with individual plant productionmanagers on projects designed to increase production levels and/or plant efficiencies.

As a process engineer, spearheaded the project to recover 450 gallons/minute of water using aprocess condensate stripper and recovery unit at the Yara Ammonia Plant in 1997.

Worked towards preventing a risky investment by completing studies to improve plant operationand uncover an unfeasible equipment add-on in the Tringen 11 (KBR designed) Ammonia Plantof 1986 vintage (Tringen 11 nameplate capacity is rated at 1500 tonnes per day).

Promptly changed and implemented a revised operations procedure to steer Tringen 1 from atotal shutdown in 1992 as a result of a poor million dollar purchase of an HT Low TemperatureShift catalyst that almost destroyed the plant when an uncontrolled fire raged in the catalyst bed.

ContdSenior Chemical Yara Trinidad Limited Savonetta 1977-2006

/Process Engineer a division of Norsk Hydro Trinidad W.I.International

Organized a Tringen1 Ammonia plant performance study as a single point coordinator wherethe energy usage and individual equipment performances were assessed. The result produceda computerized operations data bank of the plant and the result was used to identify areas of the plant for improvement during future plant turnarounds.

Completed several smaller projects on time and profitable to the company (projects ranged insize from $US50K to $US600K).

Worked outside of normal hours as a production on-call coordinator (six week rotation roster) tokeep the plants online and to avoid disastrous operations and/or unscheduled plant shutdowns.

EDUCATION and TRAINING

Bachelor of Applied Science in Chemical Engineering, University of Toronto, Toronto,Ontario, Canada

A select few of courses completed:Strategic Project Management Certificate, University of Richmond (USA)3-part seriescompleted in the Caribbean in 2003Completed an OSHA 501 course, as well as a HAZOP Leaders Training Course that introducedthe concepts of Hazard & Operability Studies (HAZOP) (1995-1997)Continual ASPEN Plus 11.2 Engineering Software Training (1996-2002)4-Day Control Valve Engineering School CertificationFISHER-ROSEMOUNT (2001)Applied Combustion TechnologyCentre for Professional Advancement Chicago USA (1979)
