Apri 1991,

Senior Planning Engineer and Systems Developer ‑ Working primarily in the fields of engineering design & construction 1 have been deeply involved in corporate planning for the past eleven years. 1 possess an extensive knowledge of Primavera, Artemis 9000 & 7000 and Microsoft Project having received formal training in these products.

In addition to Primavera, Artemis and MS Project 1 have had extensive experience of a wide variety of additional project management software. 1 have also used both Artemis and OpenPlan to perform risk analysis studies on a number of high value projects.

Having a background in engineering design and construction 1 am well placed to interpret large project, multi‑contract, planning needs and 1 possess a sound track record in representing my employers contractual and programme interests at all levels.

In my present position 1 am employed as Senior Planning Engineer based in the Netherlands working in the field of worldwide Oil and Gas sub‑sea pipelaying. i am responsible for project planning of multimillion pound pipelay projects for customers who include Shell, Exxon and Statoil In addition to project planning 1 have spent several periods offshore scheduling mission critical vessel completion works and planning fast track, emergency repair programmes.

in addition to my planning activities 1 have worked periodically writing bespoke software and have developed several Permit Control Database systems for a number of UK power generators.

On many occasions 1 have been able to incorporate my software skills into the planning role. Data management systems have included items as diverse as document tracking software, budget distribution analysis packages and a progress monitoring database linked to the company CAD system.

gas field developers. Their client list includes Shell, Exxon, Texaco, Amoco and Statoil working in locations as diverse as the North sea, Gulf of Mexico, Canada and Indonesia.

As Senior Planning Engineer 1 am responsible for preparation, monitoring and reporting on contract plans for these projects

The planning, which is carried out using Artemis 7000 Unix, is developed in two distinct halves, onshore and offshore. The onshore planning is related to the preparation of engineering design safety and quality documentation, logistics and welding / NDT strategy in line with the client's contractual requirement

issues, is planned by the hour and contains detailed interfacing between the pipelay vessel and Its support craft as well as interfaces with the client's other construction activities.

As the Solitaire is a new vessel she is still undergoing completion works and modifications and 1 have undertaken several offshore assignments to plan these works. These activities involve complex management of resource due to

g

the limitations of available bed spaces on the vessel as well as working around the problems associated with completing the vessel while she is in production.

1 have also been responsible for the planning of emergency repair works to the vessel following major storm damage while operating in the North Sea.

1 addition to my planning role 1 have undertaken Artemis development projects to enhance the budget contro capabilities of the corporate planning software.
