Power Plant Engineer at Rite Foods Limited (2021-07 – 2023-01)

Executed startup, synchronization, and shutdown sequences for CAT CG260 gas generators and DGB 2000kVA Diesel Generators with 98.5% average unit uptime

• Executed precise startup, synchronization, and shutdown sequences for CAT CG260 gas generators, ensuring stable integration with the existing grid/load and adherence to strict ramp-up/down rates
• Monitored and maintained optimal loading conditions for DGB 2000kVA Diesel Generators, optimizing usage for base load, peaking power, or black start readiness to meet fluctuating demand
• Continuously tracked critical engine parameters (e.g., temperatures, pressures, vibration, combustion data) to ensure equipment operated within OEM (Caterpillar) specifications, achieving an average unit uptime of 98.5%
• Conducted first-level diagnosis and advanced troubleshooting on complex CG260 gas engine faults (e.g., ignition issues, excessive combustion variability, cooling system anomalies), minimizing Mean Time To Repair (MTTR)
• Inspected equipment daily and performed routine preventative maintenance (PMs), including oil and filter changes, lubrication, and basic electrical/mechanical repairs, extending the operational lifespan of the units
• Collaborated with maintenance teams to coordinate complex repairs and overhauls, effectively managing the Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) process and issuing safe work permits for all equipment isolation
• Managed fuel logistics and consumption rates for both Natural Gas (for CG260) and Diesel Fuel (for DGB), conducting accurate inventory reconciliation and reporting to management
• Identified and implemented minor operational adjustments that resulted in a 2% reduction in specific fuel consumption
• Adhered rigorously to all safety protocols (e.g., confined space, fire safety) and maintained 100% compliance with all environmental permits related to stack and exhaust emissions
• Executed emergency procedures, including immediate load shedding and isolation protocols, during plant incidents to protect personnel, mitigate damage, and expedite system recovery
