Employment History (In Reverse Chronological Order)
Chicago Bridge and Iron (January 2009 - August 2009)
3010 Briarpark Drive
Houston, Texas 77042
Senior Electrical Engineer on Valero's St. Charles Refinery (Norco, La.)
MSCC /VRU and Turbo Expander Projects. I was responsible for all medium
voltage motor additions to the plant, and began my assignment by
completely modeling the plant's existing electrical system (for the areas
to be expanded) utilizing the latest SKM electrical engineering program
for motor starting, load flow, and short circuit analysis studies. I
later made field trips to the plant to confirm transformer, switchgear,
and motor control center loadings and existing motor sizes and to obtain
cable tray routings and cable lengths as required. I participated in
several meetings with the plant's Lead Electrical Engineer, Mr. Stanley
Singletary, and was involved on an ongoing weekly basis in weekly telecom
phone meetings with both the plant and their primary equipment suppliers.
I was responsible for updating and finalizing the projects' final
Electrical Load Lists, final One Line Diagrams (including the sizing of
Current Transformers as required), and final Cable Schedules (including
complete responsibility for all cable, conduit and cable tray sizing and
final checking of drawings initiated by the electrical design group). I
was also held responsible throughout the course of the project for ongoing
review, markup, and approval of all major electrical equipment Vendor
Drawings for the project and held several corrective telecons with one of
the vendors who's PLC control Systems for the medium voltage motors needed
to be revised for proper acceptable operation and to meet plant standards;
I was instrumental in getting these corrections made by the vendor to the
satisfaction of the plant electrical engineer.
When final medium voltage motor vendor data (from Reliance Factory) was
able to be confirmed, I was able to utilize the final motor starting and
torque curves to properly program the GE Multilin 469 Motor Protection
Relay by completing and downloading the GE Multilin software program into
our company computer system for future use in setting up the proper
protection for the motor upon installation of the new GE Multilin 469
relay into the plant's existing switchgear breaker cubicle. (Due to
declining oil prices, the projects were cut short and had to be were
required to be completed in only a 7 month period; the remainder of the
detailed design phase and the construction phase will be completed when
oil prices come back up over the next couple of years.)
Jacobs Engineering (March 2008 - September 2008)
4949 Essen Lane
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Jacobs Engineering assigned me take over a Project Electrical Engineering
position that was being vacated by the Lead Electrical Engineer who was
being promoted to Electrical Department Manager. (My understanding was
that I would eventually be assigned the Lead Electrical Engineering
position on this project, but continued to work as a Project Electrical
Engineer reporting directly to the Electrical Department Manager while
functioning as the Project Lead.)
The assignment was a major project with ExxonMobil at their Baton Rouge
Polyolefins Plant (BRPO). The BRPO plant specializes in the chemical
processing of various plastics and this project entailed a complete
replacement of two of their plastics extruder units (WP-5 and WP-6). The
Electrical Engineering on this project included the complete modeling of
the required electrical system with an SKM Electrical Engineering Program
and several starting and running scenarios were set up and run until the
final electrical equipment and feeders were proven and determined to work
as required. My main responsibility was the specification and procurement
of all necessary electrical equipment that was required to be purchased in
order to supplement the existing electrical facilities, including the
specification and procurement of a complete new switchgear and motor
control center building (new Substation 20) to be provided by and packaged
by Powell Electrical in Houston, Texas. Additionally, I worked closely with
the ExxonMobil Lead Electrical Engineer to specify and purchase two new
13.2KV S&C outdoor fusible switches to be added to the existing S&C outdoor
switchgear lineup. Also it was necessary to specify and purchase two 480V,
800A. main switchgear breakers to be installed in an existing 480V
switchgear lineup for powering the new 480V MCC's. (Powell was supplying
the 13.2KV and 4160V Switchgear and 4160V and 480V MCC's.) I also had to
purchase a separate Elliott brand 4160V Motor Starter for outdoor
installation. Other major equipment that I had to specify and procure
included two 13.2KV Capacitor Banks, two Neutral Grounding Resistors
(NGR's) to be added to their existing 13.2KV - 4160V power transformers,
and all necessary Basler Ground Fault Relays for connecting the NGR's to
their upstream 13.2 KV Switchgear Breakers for tripping upon detection of a
ground fault. (I was also involved in specifying and purchasing eleven
Yaskawa Variable Speed Drives for installation at 480V.) I worked closely
with the Controls Group on specifying and designing two Interposing Relay
Panels such that all electrical motors could be interfaced with a PLC based
Computer System for controlling the entire extruder process. (As the
project was completing, I asked the Electrical Manager if he was holding
some new Lead Electrical Engineering positions on other projects for me,
and he informed me that I could not officially be placed into a Lead
Electrical Engineering position on other projects for them in a Contract
position as Jacobs' internal policies require that all Lead positions be
filled by Direct Employees.) Since I prefer to work contract because of a
tax break that I receive the first year, we mutually parted company so that
I could look for other Contract Lead Electrical Engineering positions
elsewhere.
Air Liquide (2007-2008)
Galleria Tower One Building
(Connected to Galleria Mall)
2700 Post Oak Blvd
Houston, Texas
Air Liquide is one of the largest manufacturers of Special Gases such as
Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Argon and has plants around the world that
are usually located in very close proximity to major refineries and
petrochemical plants. Air Liquide signs contracts with these plants to be
their exclusive long term supplier of these gases that are needed for their
process needs.
While working at Air Liquide's central engineering office for North America
which is based in Houston, Texas, I was required to formulate a complete
and accurate Electrical Load List of both existing system loads and
proposed system load additions that were planned for our plants and then
performed system modeling for Electrical Engineering Studies using "SKM
Power Tools" in which the plants' entire electrical systems were modeled
into an overall Plant Electrical One Line Diagram by inputting all
pertinent Transformer Data, Large Motor Data, and Major Feeder Sizes to
perform Load Flow Runs, Voltage Drop Calculations, Motor Starting
Capability, and Short Circuit Calculations. (I have some familiarity with
ETAP but am not as proficient with ETAP as with SKM.) Following the
completion of these Electrical System Studies, I would usually create and
complete a Cable Schedule for all of the Major Transformer, Larger Motors,
and Motor Control Center (MCC) Feeders. From the Cable Schedule I would
often be required to create a final List of all required Major Electrical
Equipment and Major Cables that would be used to formulate Cost Estimates
for the Projects for submission to Management for approval. (I am
accustomed to contacting and meeting with Major Electrical Equipment
Suppliers and Major Cable Suppliers to work closely with me on these cost
estimates.) In many cases, it would be necessary to make trips to the
plants to confirm our proposed designs in the process of completing the
proposals. In some instances I would assemble a complete Bid Package
including Request for Quotations, all necessary Engineering and Testing
Specifications required, and all necessary Drawings such as One Line
Diagrams and Detailed Hookup Drawings.
Although I was hired for long term employment and larger projects, the
company had anticipated that their larger projects would have been approved
much sooner. Once I had completed all of the available small projects, they
informed me that the schedule for the upcoming approval of their larger
projects did not materialize fast enough, and in fact, the larger projects
would not be available until spring or summer. I was encouraged to seek
other work that was available immediately.
Chicago Bridge and Iron (CB&I) (2007)
Edison Plaza (Entergy Building)
Downtown Beaumont
Beaumont, Texas
After 2 full years of being a Lead Electrical Engineer for CDI Engineering
Group in Houston, Texas, and after they had completely run out of projects
due to a loss of the bulk of the Sales Development Personnel, I accepted a
Contract Engineering Position at Chicago Bridge and Iron (CB& I) in
Beaumont, Texas. The project that I had been hired for was not one but two
(2) major refinery expansions for Valero Refinery (identical Coker Units),
one for their Port Arthur Refinery and one for the New Orleans (St.
Charles) Refinery. After being assigned to the St. Charles project, I made
a field trip to New Orleans and met with Entergy to request temporary
electrical service for the first phase of the preliminary construction
work. I worked on load calculations and transformer and distribution
requirements for four (4) different sites which included the location of
the proposed new coker unit, the offices, warehouses, and lunch and parking
areas that would be required for the construction personnel. Shortly after
finalizing the electrical plan and beginning the required electrical
equipment setup, it was learned that Valero had chosen to award the
Detailed Engineering portion of the project to a larger turnkey EPC type
contractor such as Bechtel or Fluor and pulled the detailed engineering
from CB&I immediately after the completion of the Feed portion of the
project. Because my Contract Engineering rate was too high for their
remaining miscellaneous small projects, I was told they could not afford to
keep on until larger contract projects were negotiated and awarded to them.
(From there I moved back to Houston to seek long term larger project work.
(I was told by my immediate supervisor that I had done a great job on the
preliminary construction work and that he was sorry he could not continue
working with me. He said he welcomed me to use him as a reference for
future employers.)
