Schlumberger
I am a Chemical Process Engineer and technology consultant with 15+ years of experience
across oil & gas surface facilities, refining and petrochemical systems, and industrial and
municipal water infrastructure.
My expertise lies in process systems engineering, separation technologies, and water
management across the energy value chain. I have extensive experience in the design,
evaluation, troubleshooting, and optimization of complex industrial systems, particularly Gas-Oil
Separation Plants (GOSPs), crude desalting, phase separation, and produced water treatment
trains.
Throughout my career I have worked with operators, EPC contractors, and industrial clients
across the Middle East and Europe, contributing to projects involving upstream production
facilities, refineries, petrochemical complexes, and large-scale water and wastewater treatment
plants. My experience spans greenfield design, brownfield optimization, facility audits,
debottlenecking studies, and process performance improvement initiatives.
In addition to engineering work, I have been actively involved in technology commercialization,
product development, and solution strategy, working at the intersection of engineering, digital
technologies, and business growth. This includes contributing to technology pathways, market
studies, technical sales, and strategic alliances that support deployment of innovative
technologies across complex industrial environments.
Alongside industry work, I remain engaged with academia and research. I have served as a
researcher and adjunct lecturer in chemical engineering, contributed to peer-reviewed
publications, and supervised academic research in process engineering and water treatment.
