I am currently employed part time as an Operations Specialist for Bechtel Corporation providing support for BHTS coking projects. I retired from ConocoPhillips in 2012 with 34 years of operating experience. I have worked as an operator, operations supervisor, and project specialist in Lake Charles, Louisiana; Melaka, Malaysia; and Wood River, Illinois. I have hands-on experience with the design, construction, operator training, commissioning, startup, and daily operation of four Conoco designed cokers. In addition I have significant experience with a number of other refinery processes including fuels and lube oil hydrocracking, and fluid catcracking.
