WORK EXPERIENCE

Process Engineer

Aug 2011 - till date

Chicago Bridge & Iron (CB&I) Lummus Petrochemicals, Gurgaon, India

WORK ASSIGNMENTS

Project Turkmen gas ethylene petrochemical complex,

Turkmenistan

Duration June 2014 - till date

Description

Ethylene technology consists of cracking C2-C5 feed to produce ethylene and

propylene as main products.

Major roles & responsibilities as Process Engineer II till date include:

. Process simulations to develop heat and material balance for front-end

depropanizer, binary refrigerant & propylene refrigerant area.

Project Low pressure recovery (LPR) and olefin

conversion unit (OCU), Vietnam

Duration Dec 2013 - May 2014

Description

Low pressure recovery unit is used to recover light end hydrocarbons (C1-

C4) from refinery offgases, while olefin conversion Technology is used to

combine butenes with ethylene to produce polymer grade propylene through

metathesis reaction.
