Worked on the "Assett Development Project" at Marathon's Catlettsburg, KY Refinery. My Microstation expertise was needed as well as my knowledge of the client. "Jane of all trades", but my primary responsibilities were drawing Piping Isometrics and Microstation/Computer troubleshooting. Worked on site in a construction trailer. C&I's headquarters are located in Louisville, KY. Therefore, they needed me to keep an attendance list, keep track of office supplies, fleet cars, safety harnesses, Nomex, filing, notify client of our status in the event of a refinery evacuation, etc. Trained to use Intergraph’s Model Viewer to retrieve coordinates and elevations for steam/condensate manifolds.

Lead CAD Designer
CDI Professional Services
June 1998 – April 1999 (11 months)
Worked on a Master P&ID update at Marathon's Catlettsburg Refinery. Existing P&IDs were walked down by a team consisting of one piper and one E&I designer. Line numbers and Instrument numbers were added. The line number code (spec, etc.) was checked by a Chemical Engineer. Equipment data (pressures, temperatures, etc.) was verified. After all that was completed, then the mark ups were sent to CAD. I was responsible for all electronic files. Translated AutoCAD files into Microstation format. 1500 P&IDs were updated in 9 months and the project ended.
