Description
I have 30 + years in the construction and manufacturing industries. My range of responsibilities include but are not limited to craft work management of projects construction consultant commissioning/start-up technician field engineer field superintendent business owner and equipment designer. I specialize in the design and construction of natural gas treatment equipment from de-hydration to cryogenically lowering hydrocarbon dew point and compression of processed gas for re-entry into the pipeline. I have also been involved with implementing ISO-9001 quality programs within several organizations. The program expanded the group's ability to compete in a global market place. I have designed water treatment equipment and customized mechanical filtration applications. My design experience includes water intake facilities pre-treatment for reverse osmosis applications reverse osmosis treatment equipment and facilities boiler feed water applications and municipal water treatment/supply. I have designed equipment and 'on location' facilities to treat water from gas well fractionation applications. These experiences coupled with vast experience in oil refineries large combine cycle power plants and pipeline natural gas compressor installation makes me an extremely versatile employee. For this project My knowledge of cryogenic gas processing was instrumental in all phases of mechanical design and process overview. This plant utilized the following process string: 'mole-sieve' dehydration, propane refrigeration compression, 'mafi-trench' expansion/compression, with a demethanizer, depropanizer, and debutanizer fractionation train, followed by recompression. Support units included electric power generation, hot oil heater and pumping section, control room, and 'mole-sieve' regeneration heater. El Heumal, Argentina Running concurrently with the Santa Cruz project, on this project I was asked "under the wire" to perform pre-commissioning, start-up, and post-commissioning of a glycol injected refrigeration unit commissioned by YPF Argentina. Included were Mycon propane refrigeration compression, and glycol regeneration. In addition to successfully completing all these tasks, I also trained local personnel in the safe operation of the facility. Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina Constructed a C-3 plus fractionation train with storage and loading facilities around a Randell 20MMSCF cryogenic gas separation skid commissioned by Roch International, Buenos Aires. After completion and shipping of this unit, I oversaw the installation and inspection onsite in Argentina, as a consultant. After completion of this process, I switched roles and became fully responsible for and successfully accomplished the pre-commissioning, start-up, operations training, and post-commissioning of the unit. I performed pre-commissioning start-up operations training and post-commissioning on a JT gas/liquid separation unit with propane refrigeration. Also included was a C3-plus fractionation train with storage and loading facilities. I took over the management of construction of a 100MMSCF Randell cryogenic skid for delivery to Western Gas Resources. The plant used dual expansion/compression technology. Tied this unit into the existing facility and also decommissioned the outdated lean oil extraction unit. I came into the project post-installation to pre-commission start-up and post-commission a 20 MMSCF Randell cryogenic gas separation unit with expander/compressor delivered to Roggan Gas Inc. On this project I installed a 20 MMSCF Randell nitrogen rejection skid which incorporated amine and glycol dehydration units plus compression and recompression. Successfully performed installation pre-commissioning start-up and post-commissioning of a 20MMSCF Randell cryogenic skid with propane refrigeration.
