In Summary:

As Supply/Procurement manager at Fuel Supplies Jersey Limited, my

responsibilities included document management, material control,

purchasing, expending / traffic logistics and contracts in support of fast

track. I was the main lead project fuel and maintenance purchasing

representative responsible for performing all purchasing transactions

including the preparation of inquiries, commercial analysis of proposals

and the issuance of purchase orders. I supervised and directed project

buyers' daily activities as well as coordinated the efficient use of the

expediting efforts. Effective communication with the accounting department

was essential to resolve any contractual discrepancies discovered during

the billing payable process for all projects.

My strong career achievements are in procurement/purchasing and materials

resource management. Those achievements would improve profitability,

enhance operational performance, eliminate / mitigate risks, identify and

build progress business systems. My skill set is two-fold, high volume,

single and multi-plant operations, i.e.:

(1) As fuel supplier to the Channel Islands my aim was to source fuel at

the best price, contract shipping agent and liaise with funding bank;

(2) Operating the Jersey Fuel Consortium . My duties were to operate annual

and forecasted budgets, dealing with all aspects of maintenance and

procuring outside labour and materials needed in running such an operation.

I would report directly into Exxon Mobil and Shell Petroleum UK

I am a team leader and aim towards building productive teams by:

(1) Ensuring team unity and a clear vision of company goals and objectives

are maintained; (2) Leading from the front, my expectations of high

standards of professionalism and performance would be passed to all

concerned in enthusiastically achieving their highest standards.

A democratic approach to project management and supervision understanding

that there may be times that require decisive leadership, staff

coordination, an organised approach, discipline and problem solving is part

of my daily business.

I would say that I'm a skilled negotiator and project administrator, with

a proven record of cost reductions and effective inventory controls. I am

responsible in making high-stakes decisions, attack complex purchasing

management issues and direct procurement operations.

Daily, Weekly Overview

Stock Reports: As Supply Manager my responsibilities would include

obtaining lifting and ullage reports from three ship fed terminals ranging

from 40 to 60 miles from base. All terminals hold ULSD, Kerosine,

pertrolium spirit, Avgas and Jet A1 with an approximate total storage of

20,000 Tons. Reports would be emailed on a daily basis, from these I would

deduce which product would be replenished and proposed ship arrival date.

Fuel request: Once figures had been agreed the next stage would be to buy

fuel from various suppliers from UK, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Antwerp and

France. This would be conducted through fuel traders and best price would

be sought,. taking into account market trends. Average cost would be in the

region of $2.2 million per cargo. This agreed figure would be held for 12

hours and either accepted or rejected, subject to ship request.

Ship Request: When both of the above have been agreed in principle then

shipping owners would be advised of cargo request and discussion would take

place as to which ship will be suitable. Their findings would be based on

size of ship for the given disports, weight of product and co-mingling

rules and regulations. Once assigned, the ship's information would be

forwarded to the load port and disports for their approval. Harbour

considerations would be vessel accident reports, crew competence, pumping

capabilities, servicing records, length and beam, tidal reports on

forecasted dates etc.

Receiving ship At Disport: Ship arrival would be closely monitored by

Harbour authorities, owners and myself due to the high level of safety and

security required. As the vessel comes alongside I would be in constant

contact with the captain and harbour pilots where we would agree on marine

loading arm alignment. After accepting the ship my next task would be to

board the vessel, meet with the captain and agree on the loaded cargo,

pumping rates, size and length of pipeline, quality control put down by

ExxonMobil or Shell depending on consignee.

Pipeline (receiving lines): Before the ship's arrival, under my

supervision, various pipeline checks would have been carried out i.e.:

sufficient ullage, condition of receiving tanks, high level alarm, pressure

gauges calibrated, quality checks in previous batch and receipt lines. All

lines will have been walked and checked by one of my supervisors prior to

pumping.

Ship pumping (shore discharge): Once product quality control has been

accepted by shore operatives, appropriate tanks opened and signed off, then

the ship would be contacted to commence discharge on a slow pump initially.

Once received, the rate would be increased to an agreed maximum back

pressure for both ship and shore. Hourly checks of quality control and

ullage would be conducted by ship and shore operatives and checked and

endorsed by me. This would then be passed to the ship's captain and jointly

agreed to continue the discharge.

After receipt: Tanks would be closed until further quality checks had been

completed i.e.: colour, density and flashpoint. All aviation grades would

be sent for further analysis. Tanks would be brought back into service only

after batch records have authorised.

Submitting Ship/Shore Paperwork: I would oversee that all product receipt

records would be copied to ship owner, Port Authority and consignee head

office. Discrepencies would be discussed i.e.: slow pumping rates, cargo

loaded figures to discharge figures, demurrage costs etc.

Pipeline Manager: My morning duties would entail opening the tank farm and

comparing differences from tank side gauge readings from close of previous

nights to the opening figures, walking pipelines and conducting aviation

quality checks. All tank, pipeline, depot maintenance would be scheduled

and contractors assigned. Gantry truck loading bays would be checked for

emergency shut-off and evacuation.

Depot Manager: I would meet with the drivers at the beginning of the day to

discuss Health and Safety issues, depot changes i.e: product outages or

maintenance programs closing part of their loading areas. Monthly meetings

would also be conducted in order for concerns to be raised and addressed.
