I have 18 years of combined experience in the design of electrical distribution system, project management and construction in the oil & gas (offshore & onshore), petrochemical and infrastructure sectors. My recent international involvement includes the project management consultancy (PMC) role with North Caspian Operating Company N.V. (formerly Agip KCO) Oil Production Facility (OPF) and the Eskene West Railway Project (EWRP) in Atyrau, Kazakhstan.
Likewise, I was directly engaged in Dijla Petroleum Co. (Gulfsands Petroleum) East Khurbet Central Processing Facility (CPF) and the LQ and Administration Building Complex Project – Damascus, Syria particularly in the brownfield detail design of Deir Ez Zor Petroleum Co. (Total) onshore Central Processing Facilities (CPF).
Moreover, I flourished my experience in greenfield and brownfield front end engineering design (FEED) and detailed design for PETRONAS Carigali and Shell offshore and onshore facilities in Malaysia. While in my previous professional practice of my career, I was involved in a refinery upgrade/modification project of Saudi International Petrochemical Co. – SIPCHEM (Jubail, K.S.A), EPC project like the Sakhalin 2 LNG & Oil Export Terminal (Sakhalin, Russia), Jubail Industrial City II, Saudi Aramco Total Oil Refinery Project (SATORP) in Jubail and the Saudi Aramco Offsite Pipeline Project (SP-2) in Yanbu, K.S.A respectively that entailed my growth and expertise.
