Steven M.

I am a Chemical Engineer with more than 12 years of experience in process engineering for Oil & Gas production facilities, pipelines, utilities, gas systems, and energy infrastructure projects.

I currently work as Lead Process Engineer at INASPROCON, where I lead conceptual and basic engineering activities, process simulations, equipment sizing, PFD and P&ID development, technical specifications, multidisciplinary coordination, and vendor technical reviews. My recent work includes a 3.0 MMSCFD associated-gas treatment facility integrated with a 10 MW power-generation concept, a 102 km conceptual gas pipeline and several pumping, flare and utility-system studies.

Previously, I worked as Engineering Coordinator at PROCOPET, coordinating detailed engineering for a third oil-processing train at an Early Production Facility. I managed interfaces between process, mechanical, piping, civil, electrical, instrumentation and control disciplines, as well as coordination with procurement and construction teams.

I also worked as an independent Senior Process Engineer on a 100,000 BWPD water-injection system and as a process engineering reviewer for an operating water-injection facility.

From 2014 to 2022, I worked for Petroamazonas and EP Petroecuador, supporting conceptual engineering, basic engineering, design reviews, and field operations for 24 surface-facility projects representing more than US$57 million in awarded contracts. My experience included oil-processing facilities, crude-transfer pipelines, water-injection systems, pumping stations, gas handling and utilities.

I have practical experience with Aspen HYSYS, OLGA, PIPESIM, PVTSim and Aspen EDR. My main strengths are process design, hydraulic analysis, equipment sizing, operational troubleshooting, technical documentation and multidisciplinary project coordination. I am interested in international FEED, detailed engineering, and project-execution assignments where I can contribute both technically and as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team.
