PROFILE. An enthusiastic professional engineer, equally at home in an office or plant based environment. I have wide experience of rotating equipment and mechanical engineering across a diverse range of industries such as gas production/liquefaction (LNG), petrochemicals, nuclear, pharmaceuticals, and gas turbine CHP power generation both in the UK and overseas. I offer project engineering expertise to clients looking to optimise current assets or working on new build projects. I have a proven track record of achievement managing complex situations under time, technical, quality and financial constraints. KEY SKILLS. Many years experience of all stages of the project life cycle from concept design through front end engineering, detailed design, plant erection to commissioning both as an engineering lead and as a project team member. Over 11 years experience in cryogenic gas liquefaction systems and machines for air separation and gas liquefaction plants as OEM specialist for Air Products Cryomachines and as owners engineer for Chevron. Specialist in the specification, selection, maintenance and development of all types of rotating equipment particularly pumps, reciprocating/turbo compressors, cryogenic turbo expanders and liquefied gas pumps. Also an experienced static equipment engineer with extensive knowledge of most types of process plant equipment for example boilers, tanks, vessels, heat exchangers and piping to ASME, API and British standards.
