-Responsible for the creating of equipment strategies for fixed equipment and piping.-Identified the applicable degradation mechanisms based on process data and history.-Calculated the probability of failure of each mechanism (e.g. CUI, deadleg corrosion, etc.) using both qualitative and quantitative methods. This required significant knowledge and engineering judgement.-Assessed the consequence of failure using software in addition to a multi-disciplinary team of engineers… Show more -Responsible for the creating of equipment strategies for fixed equipment and piping.-Identified the applicable degradation mechanisms based on process data and history.-Calculated the probability of failure of each mechanism (e.g. CUI, deadleg corrosion, etc.) using both qualitative and quantitative methods. This required significant knowledge and engineering judgement.-Assessed the consequence of failure using software in addition to a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, operators and technicians.-Used the equipment strategy findings to make recommendations of timing and frequency of the inspection and maintenance of the equipment, which was then used to build annual maintenance plans, and turnaround worklists.-Responsible for the development process of the equipment for many different units on site including:o Phenol Treater Unito Hydroprocessing Unito Entire Fleet of On-site tankageo Site Utilities Plant Show less
