EMPLOYMENT HISTORY

Indorama Eleme Fertilizer and Chemicals Ltd 2016 - Present

Materials/Maintenance Engineer

Perform time-based maintenance (planned, scheduled, preventive or routine maintenance) and unplanned maintenance (unscheduled, corrective, reactive or breakdown maintenance). Provide efficient solutions to the development of processes and products, work on all stages of a product, from research and development to design and manufacture, through to installation and final commissioning. Review new product plans and make recommendations for material selection based on design objectives, such as weight, heat resistance, electrical conductivity, and cost. Improve production facilities, reduce the incidence of costly breakdowns and develop strategies to improve overall reliability and safety of plant, personnel and production processes.

• Review plans for new products and make recommendations for the selection of materials based on design objectives, such as heat resistance, strength, weight and cost
• Conduct tests on raw materials and finished products to ensure they meet quality standards and specifications
• Prepare budgets and proposals, write reports and analyze labor costs, estimate costs on equipment, systems and structures repair or replacement and ensure projects remain within budget
• Develop mechanical conceptual designs and Basic Engineering and Design Packages (BDEP)
• Schedule timely mechanical maintenance activities of all mechanical equipment’s (blowers, pumps, scanner fans, cooling tower fans) to ensure 100% uptime
• Conduct dynamic and steady state stress analysis, studies and simulations of equipment behaviors expected in service to confirm fit for service
• Modify the properties of substances such as metal alloys by utilizing mechanical and thermal treatments
• Analyze product failure data, conduct quantitative failure analysis of operational data and laboratory test results to determine causes of problems and develop solutions
• Recommend technical design or process changes to improve efficiency, quality, or performance
• Design, develop and conduct feasibility studies to assess new technologies/process improvements
• Provide technical production support in system-level production maintenance and tooling/system calibration
• Lead and perform materials characterization, material performance testing in partnership with the R&D team
• Evaluate plans or specifications to determine technological or environmental implications
• Conduct toolbox talk for over 50 technical team daily
• Analyze gaps to ensure program meets PSM and ISA requirements
• Establish maintenance strategies to install and commission equipment
• Create plant preventative maintenance procedures and support ongoing maintenance program
• Offer technical expertise to the maintenance team( foreman, fitters and technicians)
• Monitor work-in-progress and completion to ensure specifications are met

Key Achievements:

• Provided engineering counsel and leadership in establishing and refining preventive maintenance programs, employee training programs, manpower scheduling techniques, parts room inventory, efficiency improvement programs, regulatory compliance programs
• Increased operations of plant process and utility rotating equipment (centrifugal and rotary compressors, gas turbines, condensate export pumps including booster pumps, glycol injection pumps, chemical injection pumps, gas generator, screw type air compressors, etc.)
• Led the Production System Efficiency and Quality System Efficiency workshops that enhanced continuous improvement: proposed and implemented continuous productivity, efficiency and quality improvement actions for all facilities
• Increased the efficiency of cooling for the plant by increasing the blade angle of the cooling tower fans by one degree.
• Led the installation of new parts using Basic Engineering and Design Packages (BDEP)
• Recommended the replacement of spools to Polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) which reduced the rate of corrosion by 95%
