I've lived and worked in Loughborough, Houston, Aberdeen, London, Oslo and Kuala Lumpur plus travelled to many more oil and gas locales. I've now settled in KL and are happily setting my own hours with Agile Energy. Going it alone is both enjoyable and motivating! I'm sure the stress will come soon though! I have over 19 years of experience with performing Flow Assurance and RAM studies in all phases of the projects from feasibility to FEED to EPCI and Operations. My experience is also now being utilised in performing due diligence reviews and in a TA capacity, both of which seem like a nice job to have in partial retirement! I have extensive flow assurance experience in the more challenging projects we are now seeing in the SEA region: deepwater, waxy and HPHT and it is these challenging jobs I find the most interesting!
