Responsible for leading a team providing Process, Electrical, Instrument and Control, Rotating Mechanical, Technical Safety and Integrity support to the FPSO Baobab Ivoirien MV10 located off the Ivory Coast. The team provide all engineering technical support covering day to day maintenance and integrity support to provide safe and steady production with a 99.9% uptime for 2019.

I have enhanced and further developed longer term strategic and incident investigation strategies.
I provide constant vigilance on the Brownfield and Development Projects to ensure they remain on budget and schedule. I deliver oversight and client reporting on asset planned shutdowns.

I introduced a 2 year planning cycle which supported both the OPEX and CAPEX budgets coming in on target in 2019. I cut $7M from the CAPEX budget to support the low oil price that resulted from the Coronavirus Pandemic.

I also act as HSE Focal Point with client in Aberdeen.

In my time in the job I have introduced Integrated Activity Planning, rolled out the Safety Case and associated Performance Standards, improved the procurement process, developed a PSV re-certification programme, commenced Hazardous Area Equipment inspections and a flexible hose replacement programme. I have also managed a project for the change out of all top chains of the installation mooring system.
