January 2012 to June 2014Project: Namakwa Sands Cogeneration ProjectLead process/mechanical engineer for a cogeneration project, which consists of utilising off-gas from two furnaces in reciprocating engines. The gas is conditioned and delivered to the engines compliant with the engine requirements. I was responsible for the mechanical/process design of all the BOP systems (fuel gas, cooling water, chilled water, instrument air, nitrogen and lube oil), which includes generating… Show more January 2012 to June 2014Project: Namakwa Sands Cogeneration ProjectLead process/mechanical engineer for a cogeneration project, which consists of utilising off-gas from two furnaces in reciprocating engines. The gas is conditioned and delivered to the engines compliant with the engine requirements. I was responsible for the mechanical/process design of all the BOP systems (fuel gas, cooling water, chilled water, instrument air, nitrogen and lube oil), which includes generating process/mechanical drawings, specifications and hydraulic/thermodynamic models. August 2011 to December 2011Project: 100 MW Ubungo Gas Turbine Power Plant (Tanzania)The lead process engineer resigned during the final stages of design. I took over the responsibilities which included technical and vendor coordination, and the verification/development of the final design package. February 2010 to July 2011SDE was acquired by POWER in January 2010. I moved to the head office in Idaho for training on geothermal power plants. I was trained on process modeling software Aspen HYSYS® (used to model the geothermal cycles). During the training I was responsible for creating/optimising process models for different geothermal resources. I worked with senior process engineers to determine the cycle and technology best suited to the resource. The resource conditions and the design constrains (100% reinjection of resource fluid, availability of water, ambient conditions, etc.) were evaluated during the optimisation process. Show less

The project consisted of three gas turbines to generate a total output of 120 MW to 155 MW. I assisted the lead process engineer in the design of the BOP systems. My main task was to generate hydraulic models for the BOP systems using the Pipe Flow Analysis and System Modelling Software AFT Fathom. Show less
