I am responsible for supporting day to day operation of the laboratory such that analysis is completed in a safe, timely and accurate manner and all instrumentation within the laboratory has maximum uptime, consistent with the enhancement of the refinery operation. My main responsible and skills are: • Analysis for routine and ad-hoc samples by using analytical instruments: ICP-OES – Organics, Waters, Solids. FAAS & GFAAS – Organics, Waters and Solids. Fluorescence Spectroscopy – Waters, Organics  Ion Chromatography HPLC Gas Chromatography CFR engines• Being a part of a number of Method Optimization groups:  Working to improve the performance of the CFR engines and thus reduce ‘giveaway’  Investigated and implemented procedure changes that resulted in reduced unit downtime and cost• Carry out Flash Test Assays on crude imports, rapidly reporting the results and comparing them to the crude field data• HF acid testing for the Alkylation Unit, involving high order safety procedures• Calibration, adjustments and maintenance instruments on a routine basis• Revise methods to meet the needs of users and compliance with internal and external quality standard requirements• Train personnel as business needs dictate• Being a part of the Laboratory Safety Team where I was a key member of 6S implementation• Cover for absences due sickness or holidays in all areas of the laboratory

I was a member of a shift team dealing with light and heavy hydrocarbons for intermediate and final product streams of the refinery. Understanding process chemistry of Refinery units was vital to aid recognition.During this time I was responsible for:•Using analytical techniques such as: Gas Chromatography,  XRF Fluorescence  UV IR  CFR engines •Performed a wide range of petroleum testing conforming to IP and ASTM standards•Running the following tests: density, viscosity, M.C.R, hydrogen content by NMR, ASTM Colour, TAN by Metler Toledo, Conductivity, SIMIDS, CFPP, Cloud point Doctor Test•Quality Control checks to both national and international specifications were carried out by me on all finished products, these include intermediate refinery streams and finished products• Being a part of the Emergency Response Team which involved responding to plant emergencies, using First Aid and fire-fighting skills
