• Optimized system design, process controls and operation concept to reduce the project cost.
• Executed process design package for the MEG regeneration module for the Shell Browse FLNG project on the Australian offshore.
• Headed as the Deputy Lead in the multinational and managed team of 10 engineers.
• Transformed concepts into the detail design phase within 18 months, meeting the timeline challenge.
• Resolved challenges in overpressure protection system and produced the safeguarding report, meeting the Shell DEP specifications.
• Designed the heat exchanger to facilitate multilevel steam heating and developed process control.
• Specified separators and column using the process simulation PRO II, and coordinated with the vendors for the vessel internals design.
• Yielded for the megaprojects and supported operation -the Valhall offshore field (client: BP), Troll C and Kvitebjørn offshore (client: Statoil), and Omen Lange onshore gas processing plant (client: Shell).
• Enhanced oil/gas production by executing gas lift, installing pre-compression module and reinjection.
• Advised TEG dehydration operation and upgraded the PROSERNAT package with fuel gas stripping, troubleshooting the process design issue.
• Supported operation of NGL on the Valhall facilities in successful start-up of the offshore platform.
• Sized oil/gas separation and produced water treatment equipment, meeting functional requirements of the fixed and floating platform.
• Revamped the vapor recovery system for the Shell facilities, enhancing the condensate offloading rate and improving reliability over 90%.
• Handled compressor settle out, blow down and depressurization calculations, assisting the material selection.
• Applied API, ASME and NORSOK standards in economic resolution of the design challenge, and prepared close out reports for the Design Review, HAZID, HAZOP and SIL.
• Confirmed the process and utilities systems capacity with HYSYS, and FLARENET simulations supporting the flow assurance group.
• Expedited Drawings- P&IDs and PFDs, Datasheets, and Reports-Technical and Administrative.
• Keenly supervised the design sub-contractor's activities during detailed design and engineering phase.
• Directed field activities to ensure that construction, installation, commissioning and operational testing conform to functional specifications, recognized codes and standards, and customer requirements.
• Supportively reviewed documents produced and mentored Junior Engineers.
• Conducted commissioning and monitored key performance indicators (KPI) of the Cryogenic Liquid recovery, Gas Sweetening, Sulfur Recovery, Tail Gas Treatment and Sour Water Stripping.
• Implemented co-firing scheme for the Sulfur Recovery Unit allowing operation at lower H2S content and reducing acid gas flaring.
• Presented and coordinated modification of the Oil-Water Separator, improving separation and curtailed maintenance cost due to the reduced fouling.
• Implemented hot-start procedure for the cracking furnaces to prevent the radiant coils failure during plant emergency shutdown, reducing failure by 50%.
• Analyzed chemicals injection (de-emulsifier, antifoam) and substituted with an alternative, reducing chemical cost.
• Modeled HYSYS simulation for LPG recovery unit and Acid Gas Removal Unit, optimizing energy consumption.
• Devised the process alarm management scheme and curtailed DCS alarms by 60%.
• Executed PTW and coordinated tie-in of the new Cracker furnace into the Ethylene main process.
• Refined operating conditions for the turbo-expanders, reducing product loss in the Tail Gas and lowering maintenance cost for the cracking furnace burners.
• Supervised tank farm operation and optimized operation of BOG compressors, reducing loss of hydrocarbons and reduced flaring.
• Evaluated performance of the catalysts and adsorbents, and supervised replacement during annual turnaround.
• Analyzed and modified the startup procedure for the Propane Refrigeration system, saving time in startup.
• Reviewed SOP (standard operating procedure) and EOP (emergency operating procedure), and updated from MOC procedure and Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
