• Planned and execution of Preventive, Predictive, and Major Maintenance (Overhaul) schedules for main rotating equipment (gas engines, centrifugal compressors, reciprocating compressors, pumps, etc.). • Developed and implemented a condition-based maintenance program for rotating machines, applying predictive maintenance techniques such as vibration analysis and oil analysis, which resulted in a 20% reduction in unplanned downtime.• Optimized maintenance plans based on condition monitoring of machines and predictive maintenance techniques. • Managed the provision and replenishment of spare parts for rotating machines through the SAP maintenance module in order to ensure timely availability of components when needed.• Developed and managed the maintenance contract for gas engines, centrifugal compressors, reciprocating compressors, and screw compressors.• Managed relationships with equipment suppliers, contractors, and vendors, negotiating contracts, and overseeing maintenance-related projects and services.• Conduct several Root Cause Analyses of machinery failures and implemented corrective actions to prevent their recurrence.• Develop and manage maintenance budgets, monitor expenses, and implement cost-saving measures while maintaining high equipment reliability.• Conducted factory acceptance testing (FAT) for rotating equipment, ensuring compliance with specifications and quality standards.

• Planned and execution of Preventive, Predictive, and Major Maintenance (Overhaul) schedules for main rotating equipment (gas turbines, gas engines, and centrifugal compressors) electrical and control systems (PLC’s, electric motors, etc.)• Implemented a Condition-Based Maintenance program for turbomachinery, resulting in a 10,000-hour reduction in the time between overhaul (TBO) per turbine. The outcome was a $4 million reduction in overhaul costs over the project's lifespan.• Developed and implemented maintenance KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) to measure and track equipment reliability, maintenance efficiency, and overall operational performance.• Utilized Computerized Maintenance Management System software (CMMS) for scheduling work orders and tracking progress of tasks.• Developed and managed the Maintenance Contract for Condition-Based Maintenance and Overhaul of 11 Gas Turbochargers.• Managed the provision and replenishment of spare parts for Turbomachinery and PLC’s through the JD Edwards maintenance module. (CMMS)

• Operated Natural Gas Compression Plants with a capacity of 32MMm3d, and Turbomachinery ranging from 7,000 to 24,000 HP each.• Provided support in Preventive, Predictive, and Corrective Maintenance activities for turbomachinery, gas engines, and screw compressors.
