BP Thunder Horse Project, 02/01 to 10/10

Subsea oil and gas development project in 6,000 feet of water off the Louisiana coast in the Gulf of Mexico. Duties consisted of the structural design review of the subsea manifolds, foundations, rigging arrangements and seafastening for various offshore transports. Participated in the procedural review and

approval process for loadouts of various subsea hardware including Plets, Sleds, Manifolds, Suction Piles, Rigid Jumpers and pipe for Steel Catenary Risers. Involved with fabrication of seventeen large diameter suction piles by acting as liaison between the fabrication yard and engineering. Also,

participated in the procedural review and approval process for installation procedures for suction piles and manifolds. Further, participated in the offshore installation of manifolds, large diameter suction piles, rigid jumpers and steel catenary risers. Offshore participation included Client Representative and

Engineering Technical Support duties. Significant time spent on various deepwater construction vessels including the Thialf, Balder, DB50, Boa Sub C and Q4000. Facilities began production in June of 2008.





Brown and Root, Inc., 1980 to 2001

Engineer

Pemex EPC 1 Cantarell Project

Project coordinator for the construction of the 5,000 short ton Upper Module for the AC2 Compression Platform to be installed in the Bay of Campeche in the Gulf of Mexico. Responsibilities included

involvement with all disciplines in support of the deck fabrication at Greens Bayou Fabrication yard in Houston Texas.

FMC Shell/Alliance Projects–Macaroni, Angus and Europa

Lead structural engineer responsible for the design of subsea manifold foundation structures and various other hardware for three Shell Projects installed in 2,000 ft plus water depths in the GOM. The three projects were similar in configuration consisting of a subsea manifold jumper connected to subsea wells

and flowlines. Duties consisted of the structural design of the 30 ft x 45 ft 70 ton skirted mud mat foundation structures which supported the 126 ton manifolds during installation and operation. Further design included temporary mud mats for wet parking and subsequent retrieval of the manifolds from the

seafloor, manifold and foundation structure sloped support stands, manifold/foundation structure sea fastening, jumper installation spreader bars, jumper fabrication and offshore transport stands. Also, designed a 100-ton mock subsea tree for offshore handling exercises. Provided offshore engineering

technical support for the installation of the Macaroni and Angus manifolds and foundation structures. These projects were installed and began production in 1999.

BP Troika

Lead structural engineer responsible for various tasks required by the project. Duties consisted of the development of the loadout, inland river and offshore transport arrangement for the 160-ton subsea manifold and template to be installed in 2,700 feet of water in the GOM. This included the design of the

support arrangement, sling/shackle verification for the various lifts required and on -site engineering technical support including field layout work with construction personnel. Also, designed a cantilevered winch skid on the Glomar Arctic I semi-submersible drilling rig. Other duties included the design of DNV

certified under deck stiffening required for the placement of a 55 -ton temporary structure (Plan B Module) on the deck of the Arctic I. This structure provided temporary hydraulic power to the manifold and enabled oil production three months early. Also, provided offshore engineering technical and layout support for the

installation of the Plan B Module. This system began production in November 1997.

Shell Mensa

Lead structural engineer responsible for the design of the Electrical Distribution Structure (EDS). This 45ft

X 21ft 45-ton mud mat/skirt structure located in 5,400 feet of water in the GOM supported the stab and hinge over umbilical terminations, which supplied electrical power to the subsea manifold system. Further, design included the sea fastening for the subsea manifold/base and EDS structures, spreader bar for

jumper installation and jumper fabrication and transport stands. Duties consisted of various structural analyses, structural steel design and supervising drafting personnel in the preparation of detailed drawings for fabrication. This system began production in July of 1997.

Mobil Yukon

Lead structural engineer responsible for the structural modification of an existing three well subsea manifold template in 900 feet of water (GOM). The 8.5ft X 55ft 50-ton structure was modified to accept

production piping and to withstand a 50-ton snag load. Duties consisted of various structural analyses, steel design and supervising drafting personnel in the preparation of detailed fabrication drawings. Also, provided on-site engineering technical support for the offshore installation of this template with the

100 ton A-frame. This system began production in September of 1996.





Shell Popeye

Lead structural engineer responsible for the design of a pipeline termination sled in 2,000 feet of water (GOM). The sled was designed to transmit 60-tons of line tension between the pipeline and lowering line during installation. Also, designed the 100-ton A-Frame used by the installation contractor for this project.

Duties consisted of various structural analyses, design calculations and supervising drafting personnel in the preparation of detailed drawings for fabrication. This sled was installed and began production in 1995.

Amoco/Gupco, October Gas Lift Transgulf Project

Structural design of a gas compression plat form located in 195 feet of water in the Gulf of Suez. Lead structural engineer responsible for the detailed structural design of a 2,0 00-ton deck and 600-ton jacket. Supervised and coordinated engineering and drafting personnel for the project. Duties consisted of

various structural computer analyses including in-place, lifting, flotation, and transportation. Also, designed various plat form components such as pad eyes and equipment supports. This platform was installed in 1993.

Arco China, Yacheng 13-1 Gas Project

Duties included structural design of various platform components for a production and a wellhead platform located in 290 feet of water in the South China Sea. Responsibilities included the structural

design of equipment supports and access platforms.

Exxon, Mobile Bay

Structural design of various plat form components for three shallow water production plat forms located

offshore Alabama. Structural engineer responsible for the design of various equipment supports, access platforms, and structural modifications.
