Other Relevant Experience

Originally from a shipbuilding background, I have considerable and varied experience in Marine & Offshore Design and possess a disciplined approach including the motivation to work without supervision or as a member of a project team dedicated to the ultimate goal.

I have been very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to gain in depth experience in a variety of other disciplines one of which has been HVAC in both the Shipbuilding and Offshore Industries.

In 1975 I worked on the layout & fabrication detailing for the drilling & process areas on the SEDCO 471 Drillship in Halifax, Nova Scotia, followed in 1985 at Deborah Services on Tyneside when I handled the fabrication detailing on three process modules for Marathons Brea B platform.

The following year I was engaged by Cape Contracts also on Tyneside to do a similar project including the Plant Room layout & structural support design, when BP retained my services till load out for installation trouble shooting on their South East Forties platform modules on Teeside

In 1988 I visited Durban in South Africa to assist with the set-up of DSL Contracts offshore division who were also engaged in the Fire Wall design, fabrication & erection as well as the HVAC and resulting interface with A0, A60 and H120 walls and doors.

Cape Contracts recalled me in 1991 to handle the process & accommodation systems on the Saltire, Tiffany, Piper B and Ravenspurn platforms often working from and modifying the Flow Line Diagrams as the projects progressed.

In 1992 valuable experience was gained with trips offshore to the Piper B platform during its final stages of HVAC Commissioning leading up to the production of first oil. During 1993 I visited Abu Dhabi for Booth Industries to supervise the erection of A60 & H120 Firewalls for final certification.

Further commissioning was handled in Holland on the drilling facilities of the Alba Project prior to load out, followed by a trip to the Shell Auk platform to investigate area pressurisation differentials to compile a report on the safety standards with recommended modifications
