  Hmg oilfield automation

  Jul 2010 - Apr 2014

  Senior automation engineer

  • Installed and maintained new automation equipment on oilfield locations through the use of PLC,HMI programs, RTUs, and radio services for shutdowns of SCADA systems involving tank levels and gas detection. • Calibrated electronic controls for pipelines, production, and compressor stations to identify software and measurement issues. • Installed video surveillance systems to ensure that security precautions were taken in remote regions. My key accomplishments include: • Developed and designed a portable tank monitoring system to help bring oilfield wells online faster saving oilfield companies time and revenues. Worked with designing the system to use remote terminal units along with siemens PLCs to control tank levels and leak detection which incorporated the use of SCADA programming through the use of protocols analysis and embedded systems programming which allows for communication and data collecting of daily volume, casing and tubing pressure, pit volume, plunger (well) reports, tank level reports, polling efficiencies, and EFM collecting and well status every hour or once every fifteen minutes for critical sites. The system was setup to be powered with solar panels and batteries which allowed the tank level monitoring system to be mobile and moved to different locations as needed. The mobile tank level monitoring system allowed for oil production to become operational before the well could come online for pipeline production. Show less
