Bhd, June 2011 – December 2015 The following are brief description of projects I carried out and my roles and responsibilities, in chronological order, starting from the latest. Project: Bassein Development Project (BCP-A3 and BLQ-3) Main Contractor / Fabricator: L&T Hydrocarbon Engineering (LTHE) Client / Operator : Oil and Natural Gas Corporation, Ltd. India Located in Indian sea, this project is an offshore platform comprising of one process platform for additional gas compressor units and utilities and one LQ platform to man the facility operators. In this project, I was assigned as Deputy Lead Engineer and Area Lead for Instrument engineering support for Mechanical Package. I assisted my lead in setting up the engineering and design team. Project: Bergading CPP & WHP EPCIC Project Detailed Engineering Main Contractor / Fabricator: Hyundai Heavy Industries Client / Operator : HESS Exploration & Production Malaysia B.V Located offshore at northern part of Malaysian peninsula, this project consists of a Natural Gas Central Processing Platform, and a bridge-link wellhead platform. In this project, I was assigned as the Deputy Lead Engineer and Area Lead for Process Control and Safety Systems. I was also involved in the FEED verification phase, and project planning for the detailed design phase. I had executed the detailed design phase from kick-off where I helped my lead to set up the team, the engineering and design hardware and software, etc. After issuing all IFC drawings, Aker handed over the remaining engineering to HHI and I was seconded to HHI’s fabrication yard in Ulsan Korea, for follow on engineering support. Project: Kebabangan Northern Hub Project (KBB) Detailed Engineering Client / Operator: Kebabangan Petroleum Operating Company Located offshore in Sabah, Malaysia, KBB project is an Oil and gas platform for processing, wellheads and living quarters. I played multiple roles in different stages of the project. I joined in the mid stage of detailed design, and was assigned as responsible engineering support for Mechanical Packages. Then I replaced the deputy lead engineer who was also the area lead for Mechanical and Electrical packages but eventually resigned from Aker and then tasked to lead after my lead was mobilized to another project. Due to delay in placement of order of most of the Mechanical Packages, and due to some design changes, KBB project was delayed and needed to be re-baselined. I was heavily involved in the re-baseline planning and additional man hour estimate. I stayed in the project along with small team for the fabrication site engineering support. Project: Bunga Kekwa D (BKD) FEED Project Client / Operator: Talisman Energy Inc. Located offshore eastern Malaysia, this FEED project aims to give basic engineering and design concept for the proposed BKD unmanned and remote wellhead platform. I was the RE for Plant Control and Shutdown Systems (PCSS) package. The systems design is to provide unmanned supervisory control of the BKD platform, with facilities to communicate back to the CPP platform thru a digital microwave radio, for monitoring and remote shutdown. Technip Geoproduction Sdn Bhd, June 2008 – June 2011 The following are brief description of projects I carried out and my roles and responsibilities, in chronological order, starting from the latest. Project: Central Diyarbekir Drilling Platform A (CDDP-A) FEED Project Client / End User: Government of Kazhakstan The proposed CDDP-A wellhead drilling platform will be located at the Caspian Sea.

Fluor Daniel Inc. Philippines, March 2001 – June 2008 The following are brief description of projects I carried out and my roles and responsibilities, in chronological order, starting from the latest. Project: Saudi Petrochemical Corporation Polypropylene Plant Expansion (SPX) Client / End User: Saudi Petrochemical Corporation SPX is a brown field project that aims to add expand the existing plant with the addition of new equipment and process areas. Started as an area lead for instrument packages, my team was tasked to generate datasheets to be handed over to our home office in Haarlem who then will attach them to requisition and purchase documents. My team were able to complete the datasheets on time and with quality. Eventually I was assigned as the Deputy Lead engineer helping my lead engineer to supervise the team and to coordinate with Haarlem home office for technical matters and schedule Project: Yanbu National Petrochemcical Complex Utilities & Offsite Project. Client / End User: Yansab This project is a brown field petrochemical complex located in Yanbu KSA which comprises of seven petrochemical plants. Fluor was awarded the Project management for the entire project, plus a contract to deliver Utilities and Offsites facilities. I joined the project as an RE for field instruments. Upon learning that I have a FAT experience from my previous company, Fluor re-assigned me as FAT engineer for the Safety Systems (Triconex), which is held in Invensys factory in Bedok Singapore. We have completed FAT of more than 150 safety systems cabinets for the U&O facilities. Electrowatt-Ekono. Philippines, March 2005 – Feb 2006 Electrowatt-Ekono (now called as Poyry) was awarded a Contract for procurement, engineering and construction of Balance of Plant (BOP) facilities for the Circulating Fluidized Bed Boiler project for a new power plant to provide an autonomous power supply for the United Pulp and Paper Plant in Bulacan Philippines. With such a small scope, there was only one engineer per discipline, and few drafters, to provide engineering and design deliverables for the BOP project. As the Instrument and Control design engineer, I was responsible for the instrument packages, drawings and MTO. Has had a short trip to Thailand for the FAT of BOP control logics, which I developed during engineering. After engineering was completed, I was assigned as a site supervisor to oversee construction activities related to instrumentation works and interfaces, not only of the BOP, but also of the Boiler plant, as part of Electrowatt’s contract for the overall EPCM. Hitachi Plant Engineering & Construction Co. Ltd., June 1996 – March 2005 I began my career as young and energetic Electrical and Instrument design engineer with Hitachi Plant Engineering and gradually gained the foundation of design and engineering knowhow, with the help of some Japanese mentors. As a second batch comer, I helped set up Company work procedures, translate design software from Japanese to English, create training manuals, held E&I team and inter-discipline trainings and eventually became mentor to the junior engineers, and finally held a position as Section Head of the Chemical-Electrical Department. I was assigned in various projects which I carried out either in our Makati branch office, Tokyo home office, and regional office in Singapore. I held a position most of the time as E&I designer responsible to generate construction drawings, calculations and MTO. Whenever I was seconded to Singapore branch office, I was assigned to instrument package procurement activities such as generating datasheets, requisition and purchase documents and TBEs. I was also given an opportunity to be a site supervisor, after the design and engineering completion. The following are the list of projects I have successfully executed, in span of almost 9 years, in chronological order starting from the latest.
