I had a position with Hill International a large group of Project

Management Consultants

located in Marlton New Jersey I am currently at the Trafigura Facility in

Darrow LA. I am in charge of the Master Schedule or the (OPS) Overall

Project Schedule I have committed myself to meet all the Contractors and

set the expectation that they should have the work they have been awarded

to be accommodated with a weekly update. That it should be tied to their

schedule of value. All this work was awarded and the parameters of this

did not occur. This has been an issue from a scheduling aspect for the

overall schedule. It has taken longer than expected but I finally had all

parties but one on board. I was using Primavera 6 Professional 8.62 on the

hard drive and the network version of P6. I am producing as a good product

for the Project Manager for Impala which is owned by Trafigura. I am giving

him a good picture of the way to work out of this project. He is the third

Project Manager. He went towill be going to Geneva Switzerland in two

weeks. This Project consist of a (CBU) Coal Barge Unloader with numerous

Towers for a conveyor system to a stock pile with a Conveyor Tripper to

drop the coal onto certain areas of the stockpile. Large equipment will

then move it to Dozer Traps and send it to the sleeper conveyor to the

Drive up tower to the (MWS) Marine Warf Structure which is critical path

due to the delivery date of the automatic off loader which will brought up

the Mississippi River on a heavy haul ship The cells are being done by Boh

Bothers. The ship loader weighs over a thousand tons and will sit on rails

that are to be on the MWS.

Jacobs Engineering at DOW SCO in Taft and now at the LAO plant, in

Plaquemines LA.

September 2011 through May 2013 I was one of three lead schedulers for the

T/A Service Group

I Scheduled the Chlorine Unit Spring outage that was to start July 7, 2013

and go through the end of August. I was downloading plans using a planning

tool for this and have over half the Jobs down loaded into the Schedule.

The LHC3 Benzene System in which the scope included the Confined Space

Entry for the C-500 Column for inspection I completed the Poly East Plant

which contained two Trains four reactors and four pelting machines. I was

brought into the job for a turnaround but had to go straight into a

Shutdown for the Reactor logged up and had a giant piece of Plastic that

had to be cut out by pneumatic chainsaws, which being down a list develop

that had to planned and schedule Thus I was to schedule the outage and

coordinate activities. After this Shut Down anther occurred in the other

Train # 2 in which work had to be done this also included planning and

scheduling. The original T/A was moved from February to May it was 18 days

from Prime off to Prime on. The T/A came in under budget and Zero first

aids the Primary contractors were Turner, Jacobs who has the maintenance

and Sulzer who did the Rotation Equipment the Critical Path was the Reactor

3 and the Rotor change out that was carried out by Dow and TNT cranes Zero

first aids. My duties were to input data and issue shift schedules to

productions and to contractors and to the Dow coordinators and to the

Contractor Coordinator.

I also was in charge of the loading barn in which pellets of poly were

loading into train cars.

May of 2010 through August 2011 I accepted a position in Iowa at Fort Dodge

working under contract through Universal Personnel to Koch at an Ammonia

Nitrate Fertilizer Facility in Fort Dodge, Iowa. In this position I was the

lead scheduler the SIS SB # 84 which stands for Safety Interruption System.

Being that the Plant was built in 1968 most insulation was asbestos and

the paint was to be considered to have a lead base primer. In this Project

which had Front End Loading and specified gates to past through for funding

for design cost, engineering and a significant update on its antiquated

analogical control system was to be upgraded to a DC control system that

was engineered by Yokagawa in which over 8000 IO points where to be changed

out Excel had won the bid for the electrical and instrumentation while JVI

was to do the mechanical that was engineered by to S&B out of Houston which

included rerouting over 160 control loops and 3800 fabrication welds and

400 field welds along with installation of two DCS stations and the

upgrading of Steel Rack and supports. This was the first of a three

facility work over for the Koch Company Fertilizer Division. With all the

field fabrication and installation all welds pass NDT. Zero first Aids on

the Project.

Think Resources (Contract Parson Inc), October, 2008 through

March 2010

. Infrastructure Scheduler for the Cold Roll Mill that is part of the 4

billion dollar project.

. The Project is in the Civil and Structural Portion and the Duct Banks

for the electrical needs of the Mill and the commissioning of the over

head cranes and the steps it takes to become a production of Coiled

Rolled Steel which is set to be Hot Commissioned in 2010. This also

contained the medium and low voltage feed and the main electrical

room.

. The Civil was complete in the Cold Roll Mill, which has a tandem mill

a pickling line and a continuous pickling line and an Acid

Regeneration Unit along with a boiler.

. With the major steel for one building being more that 12,000 tons and

100 thousand cubic yards of Concrete.

. All building are trimming the decking and roofing, Major Equipment MEP

and AOE buildings are being done. Made sure that lighting and utility

power was installed and assisted Parsons in the underground duct

banks. And Feed Conductors for

Over Head Cranes being installed by Crane and Hoist.

. My responsibility was to go through P7 update with current view and

review and analysis each contractor in which I download using

Primavera 7 from and xer. File

. Quantities are updated by the superintendents and I review with the

contractors for correctness.

. Part of the CRM Team and attend a Team Meeting with the Client and

attend various construction meetings, in which Daily Progress is

discussed along with a look ahead.

. I also looked at the daily construction reports from each area due to

the fact that I have CRM, Storage area 2 and Storage Area 1.

. The Structural portion of the Project was completed

. Handled RFI and do analysis for Delay notification and the

contractor's scope.

. Review the AIA forms for payment claims per the contract since each is

Lump sum and use general conditions or Unit rates for the extras.

. I was working with Crane & Hoist with the overhead crane company and

produced a schedule from the erectors of the rails for the over head

cranes.

. Conducted a three week look ahead started here due to the fact that

the schedulers before did not require it. It gave a more detailed

look at daily operations.

. This Project is a work in Progress just as the Schedule has to be a

living document due to the nature of the work and delays of weather

and mismatched fabrication and density of worker in areas.

. The entire schedule had to fit into the WBS of the IMS Integrated

Master Schedule. In this way an early late report is produced at the

summary level for the upper management.

. Worked with Lender Jacobs engineering on the Fastball Project on Ram

Powell.

PMCC of Houston Texas September 2005 thru May 2007

I was an Independent Contractor as the Client Representative through

Shell Global Solutions. The project grew due to the GEP Closure Project

that Jacobs had started 3 years ago. With 11mm spent on the reroutes and

the demo of the unit being cancelled due to the fact that the 300# Section

of EO-1 or the new High Purity Ethylene Oxide Unit would now feed the EOG-

03 unit due to its design of only as a glycol unit not a unit to produce

HEO. The Project Premise was developed for a new design to have long

routing of pipe with eight new pieces of equipment and for the exchanges

and condensers to be reused.

The new routed pipe was routed along with the Electric and Instrumentation

through the utility rack which will encompass 22 thousand linear feet of

pipe with and equally amount of instrumentation and electrical work at a

$25mm dollar range approved after running a P50 Monte Carlo analysis and

using the IPA criteria. FB&D did the detailed design stage having just

completed FED, FEL, & IPA. The project was given a 4.25 range for bench

marking which is great for industry standards. The project consisted of

surgical demo of existing unit in which there will be a revamp of an EO

column. The engineering group of S &B has & their subsidiary Ford Bacon &

Davis have an EPCM contract. The Project went to go to the field in

September on the OSBL then follow up with and outage of EO-3 in which 20

tie points were done. In January of 2007 the old existing EO-1 was shut

down and decontaminated for EO-1 Closure project which is now part of the

High Purity Ethylene Oxide Project will be demolished as it has served its

purpose for the last forty years. This increase the cost of the project

due to the rerouting of lines & E & I work.

Fluor Overhaul, which is a specialty Chemical Plant that manufactures KLEA

134a refrigerant. I did the walk outs for all work inputted planning

information into SAP and created reports for tracking the cost. Shaw had

the bulk of the work on T&M but we also had eight sub contractors from NDT

API inspections to hydro blasting tubes. In which we replaced three

bundles, which encompassed lifting plans for weights and safety and radius

of swing. Critical Path was C510 Column work with G. E. doing the overlay

Shaw Vacuum out existing 304 Packing done in Acid Suites due to the HF that

had remained on the packing, which had to be decom with bull tanks in the

storage area for drums. The overhaul as the English calls them came in

under budget and 3 days ahead of the P3 Schedule. I also had an update

meeting and a scheduling meeting for permits each day. We had 160 crafts

and subs on days and 40 crafts and subs on nights. The critical path

worked 7 - 24 the rest of the overhaul was covered on 2 shifts of 6-10's.

In overhaul safety no OSHA recordable.
