Roles & contributions
  • Project Ownership

    Full lifecycle project ownership

    Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.

Project ownership and delivery context

Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.

Coordinated process equipment, seven foundations and more than 30 instrumentation components with PLC and HMI requirements. Connected chemical-demand modeling, tanker transfer and upstream and downstream capacity so that the expansion supported a usable production system rather than an isolated vessel addition.
