APOLLO AUTOMATIONJAMES WARREN · ENGINEERING & PROJECT LEADERSHIPCASE-062 · Engineering case
Modernized capper, conveyor and bulk-nitrogen interfaces while improving dosing verification at the operator-control layer.
Delivered a combo capper rated at 150 BPM and improved nitrogen-dosing verification at the SCADA layer.
Engineering scope: Bottling & Packaging Systems, Chemical Dosing & Metering, SCADA & Data Coordination.
The selected capper has a 150 BPM equipment rating. The business case modeled approximately $90k/year in nitrogen savings; it is distinct from the observed nitrogen-loss result in the companion dosing project.

Line 1 Capper and Conveyor Upgrade + Bulk Nitrogen Transition
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.
Supplier Participation
Vendor Contribution
Vendor-supported startup was part of the capper, cryogenic dosing and nitrogen-system integration.
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 the capper, cap elevator and conveyor changes with nitrogen storage and dosing controls. SCADA verification connected dosing behavior with operating visibility, while equipment selection and maintenance considerations supported the 150 BPM rated capper capacity.
