Als onderhoudsadviseur bij het Hoogheemraadschap van Rijnland word ik betrokken bij het opstellen van onderhoudsconcepten, adviezen over betrouwbaarheid en prestanties van assets, faalkansanalyses, en RCA's. Programmeren van kortcyclisch onderhoud in Ultimo behoort ook tot de primaire taken. Dit primair in hat watersysteem, ofwel de assets die we gebruiken voor voldoende water en droge voeten. Daarnaast is digitalisering van het waterschap en asset management belangerijk thema. Implementatie van condition monitoring op kritieke assets, en het combineren van data bronnen om de conditie van assets te kwantificeren zijn ontwikkelingen waar ik nauw bij betrokken wordt. Ook heeft Rijnland de ambitie om data over het faalgedrag te verzamelen op een test locatie. De realisatie hiervan is een van mijn andere kerntaken. Vragen als: -hoe delen we de data?-hoe kunnen we dit labellen? -is het reproduceerbaar en leesbaar over een aantal jaar? -waar moet de testlocatie aan voldoen?-welke meetmethodes zijn zinvol voor welke faalmodi?

Delft

As asset integrity consultant I specialized in storage tank Asset Integrity and RBI using EEMUA 159 as well as API 653/579.We help our clients with all aspects of terminal asset management including implementation of risk based inspection regimes.

Shell Pernis

As a member of the Source Analysis team at Shell Pernis, I performed checks for plant changes with respect to their design conditions and the required design conditions taking into account thermal and hydraulic fail scenarios. These source analyses are then used by Shell to obtain permits and certification for the specific plant changes.

Leiden

As a process engineer in Leiden, I thermally rated several heat exchangers and air coolers for different clients using the HTRI design software. Besides this I performed hydrualic calculations of piping networks and water hammer simulations using WANDA. These calculations verified valve closing times and the surge pressure wave with respect to the design conditions of the network.

Enschede Area, Netherlands

For my graduation thesis at the faculty Thermal Engineering I performed research in thefield of acoustics. The goal was to numerically simulate and quantify pressure wavepropagation losses due to viscous effects in a pipe using different bent geometries. Thesimulations were performed in ANSYS Fluent and validated using an analytically derivedmodels.

Hengelo

I did an intership at Simens N.V. Hengelo. At this location they specialize in radialmultistage compressor solutions for the oil and gas industry in the range of 2 to 20 MW.During this period I helped calibrate an existing mathematical model of the magneticbearings for a subsea skid prototype where the motor, bearings ansd compressor arecombined in a single casing. The calibration was perfomed using measured data from apilot plant in Groningen and was implemented using the software of Matlab Simulink.Amongst the calculations performed was the modelling and dimensioning of a shell andtube heat exchanger and flow orifice designs.After the intership period had ended, I was offered an graduation assignment whichrequired the previously obtained knowledge on cooling models to be applied for acooling simulation of the compressor motor used in the previously named system. Theresult was a multi-functional mathematical cooling model which would be used for salespurposes. This model was also validated using data from the pilot setup in Groningen.

Alkmaar Area, Netherlands

The internal quality commission of the mechanical engineering major at Inholland Alkmaar had as task to analyze and evaluate the quality of the individual courses given within the program. This would then be formally taken into account during meetings in which the curriculum would be assessed.

Sappemeer, Groningen

My second internship for my bachelors degree I started at NAM GLT in Sappemeer, aconsortium of Siemens, Yokogawa, Jacobs Engineering and the NAM. At NAM GLT theydevelop new gas facillities for the Groningen gas fields. My task there was to review thecooling capacity downstream of the second stage compression. During this period Ianalyzed P&IDs and collected measured well data to develop a mathematical model inMicrosoft Excell.

Alkmaar Area, Netherlands

During my student period in Alkmaar I helped organize the introduction week of InHolland Alkmaar: InAlkmaarIntro, during a period of 3 years. This introduction week was would last for 3 three days and would help introduce Alkmaar to new students. Some of the core tasks involved were organizing sponsoring, requesting permits but also being responsible for all the attendees (about 400 people) during the intro. All introduction committee members had a BHV certificate.

Zwaag

As part of my bachelors degree education I did an internship at Rolan Robotics. This was the first time I worked with advanced mechanical machines, making this a very interesting time for me. Rolan Robotics specializes in robot arms and welding automation. During this period I primarily did some PLC programming and CAD drawing. I also helped on several external installation jobs.
