Review engineering deliverables and initiate appropriate corrective actions. Prepare, schedule, coordinate and monitor the assigned engineering projects of oil & gas plants, thermal power plants, renewable energy solutions and facilities. Interact with the clients to interpret their needs and requirements.

In-company Training on "Reciprocating compressor performance analysis (Ariel and Dresser-Rand compressors)". In-company reciprocating compressor performance analysis, to decrease the vibration to the acceptable limits according to the API 618 and API RP 688 and to increase the gas volume capacity. The operational philosophy changes for two reciprocating compressor plants at the Anaco fields to increase the volume capacity. Review of the operational procedures for a reciprocating gas compressor start-up.

Calculation and estimation of gas volumes in underground gas storages in the Moscow region. Use of Petrel® and Eclipse®
