Energy strategist with 15+ years of experience specializing in LNG infrastructure, North American natural gas markets, and utility decarbonization. My experience spans upstream gas production, LNG import infrastructure, and utility-side decarbonization - providing a full value-chain perspective on natural gas within the energy transition. I worked in global energy organizations including Chevron and Excelerate Energy, where I was involved in LNG infrastructure deployment, floating regasification (FSRU), and commercialization strategy. I advise on capital-intensive infrastructure decisions, gas contracting structures, and the evolving role of LNG in global energy security. Currently at FortisBC, I lead market transformation initiatives focused on decarbonization pathways, dual-fuel systems, gas heat pumps, and regulatory-aligned transition programs — giving me firsthand exposure to how gas utilities are adapting within climate policy constraints. Areas of expertise include: • LNG export economics & FID considerations • Floating LNG / FSRU deployment strategy • North American gas markets & contracting structures • Utility decarbonization frameworks • Energy transition risk assessment • Infrastructure investment evaluation I combine technical engineering depth with executive-level commercial awareness, supported by an MBA and Master of Engineering Leadership from UBC. I advise investors, consultants, and infrastructure developers on LNG export economics, floating regasification (FSRU), gas market dynamics, and decarbonization strategy. Available for expert consultations on LNG infrastructure, North American gas markets, FID decision economics, and utility decarbonization strategy.
Leading market development and strategic evaluation of emerging gas technologies, such as gas heat pumps, dual fuel heating systems to support energy transition pathways while maintaining system reliability and affordability. • Evaluate impacts of electrification and emerging low-carbon technologies on long-term natural gas demand and infrastructure planning • Develop pilots and market adoption strategies for innovative gas technologies supporting decarbonization goals
Teaching assistant supporting MBA courses in strategy, sustainability, leadership, and business development.
Researching methodologies to accelerate decarbonization of the heavy-duty transportation sector and transform the world with the power of Hydrogen.
Led project development activities supporting LNG import infrastructure expansion and integration with the national gas supply system in Bangladesh. Key contributions: • Supported development and execution planning for LNG import infrastructure, including FSRU deployment and associated gas transmission integration. • Coordinated cross-functional teams across engineering, commercial, and operations functions to advance infrastructure development initiatives. • Evaluated project execution risks, infrastructure reliability considerations, and throughput optimization strategies for LNG terminal operations. • Engaged with national gas utility, Petrobangla and regulatory stakeholders on project planning, operational readiness, and compliance requirements. • Contributed to strategic discussions on LNG import dependency, national supply security, and infrastructure expansion planning in a rapidly growing gas market.
Supported operations and optimization of Bangladesh’s first offshore LNG import terminal (FSRU), supplying regasified LNG to the national transmission network. Key contributions • Contributed to operational management and performance optimization of an offshore LNG regasification terminal (FSRU) supplying gas to the national transmission network. • Supported integration of LNG regasified volumes into the domestic gas system to enhance national energy security and supply reliability. • Coordinated with marine, terminal, and pipeline stakeholders to maintain safe and efficient LNG receiving and regasification operations. • Participated in asset performance monitoring, operational risk mitigation, and reliability improvement initiatives. • Gained exposure to LNG pricing dynamics, cargo scheduling, and supply security considerations in an emerging LNG importing market.
Supported operations and optimization of onshore natural gas production infrastructure at Bibiyana Gas Field, one of the country’s largest upstream assets. Key contributions: • Contributed to reliability and optimization of gas processing and compression systems supporting national energy supply • Participated in brownfield and greenfield infrastructure modifications under Chevron’s global engineering and capital governance frameworks • Supported Management of Change (MOC) reviews, operational risk assessments, and integrity assurance processes • Reviewed process design documentation (PFDs, P&IDs, datasheets) in alignment with operational and capital project requirements • Engaged cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and business planning teams to support production continuity and capital discipline
