Key Projects

1. MODEC FPSO Packages - I led this project across multiple packages—including MV32, MV33, MV34, Carcara, Sangomar, and Uaru—collaborating with various stakeholders to deliver complex technical quotations within tight deadlines. Our efforts contributed to securing the order and earned recognition from AP top management for outstanding support.


2. Marjan - For the Marjan project, we implemented a new technical strategy by proposing FBE coating as an alternative to cladding—marking the first time we applied this approach. This solution was clearly communicated to the customer and successfully led to a cost saving of $410K in the overall quotation.


3. Qatar NFE - Qatar NFE is one of the flagship projects I led, particularly focused on delivering Special Engineering Products tailored to meet all customer requirements. Successfully managing such a large-scale project early in my career was a game-changer, paving the way for me to take on a leadership role within the SPG team.


4. SINOPEC JIU JIANG - While this current project may not rank high in terms of monetary value, it involves a large number of highly complex items—particularly with Grayloc and other specialized packages. This complexity has provided an opportunity to collaborate closely with multiple stakeholders and create significant value through tailored solutions
