Process Control Engineer specializing in Basic Process Control/Advanced Regulatory Control in various industries - mostly process (refineries, chemical plants) but also mining operations, wood industries, some manufacturing processes. My daily job includes a fair share of control activities associated with control system design, conversion (large and small scale), and even systems integration.Specialties: I developed a good track record at solving control problems that were deemed too complex or too expensive to address. These control problems are all small-to-medium size (2-5 inputs, 1-2 outputs) that can be resolved by creative use of conventional control technology already familiar to the customer's staff. The resulting solutions are thus transparent to the plant personnel while delivering 80 - 90 per cent of theoretical improvement that could be achieved with dedicated APC products.INDUSTRIESOil & Gas upstream, both on- and off-shoreOil Refining, Gas processing (Includes operating)Chemicals, Special chemicals, Semiconductors (chemicals handling) Oil, gas pipelines (pumping and gas treatment)Pulp and Paper (steam/power)Mining (processing)Power generation, Turbines, boilers, load sharingManufacturing, Bench systemsAPPLICATION EXPERIENCEProcess modeling, steady-state optimization, multivariable control (DMC)DeltaV Predict Pro and Autopilot (Model-Based Multivariable Contollers), Neural Net, Fuzzy Logic Programming languages: VB, C++, Fortran IV; Databases: MS SQL Server, MS Access.Simulation Software: Mimic, Matlab.Control Systems: DCS (Emerson RS3, DeltaV), Honeywell Experion, PLC (Allen-Bradley, GE, Modicon), Hybrid (MOST); PC-Based Control: Beckhoff, Think&Do, Opto-22HMI – Intellution FixDMACS, iFix, Cimplicity; Wonderware InTouch, ArchestrA, Rockwell Automation Panelview/RSView32/RsView SE/FactoryTalkViewME, FactoryTalkViewSE, Citect.Operating Systems: Microsoft Windows, Terminal Services, Thin clients.Networking: Fault-tolerant Ethernet
