About

I am a Senior Pressure Vessel and Heat Exchanger Engineer with 21+ years of experience in designing, specifying, purchasing and following-up static equipment. I have worked as a Specialist, as a Project Coordinator and as a Project Engineer with major Customers like Saudi Aramco, BP, Petrobras, Petronas, CNRL, Ecopetrol, YARA, CFI, Casale, BASF, UHDE. I enjoy working in a global and multicultural environment, having spent one year and a half in Brazil at Technip Brazil Centre, three months in Beijing to cooperate with a local Contractor and 5 months in Moscow as a PMC for Gazpromneft. While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I believe my favorite stage of a Project is working with the Client to understand their objectives and how to ensure their satisfaction. I’m truly passionate about my work and always eager to connect with other people working in the same area so feel free to contact me if you’d like to connect.
