Technical/Maintenance Oversight: Systems: marine-diesel propulsion, cooling, lubricating, fuel, water treatment, multi-alternator, hydraulic power, pneumatic, control, alarm and emergency; heat exchangers and diesel engines. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Summary: Juggled finite resources throughout the commissioning phase, ensuring the operation continued at full capacity and optimum efficiency. Throughout operational phases, focused on reducing failures and potential for failure by detecting issues prior to the negative impact on operations. ✔ Risk Identification/Risk Control: Leveraged international best practice to introduce risk identification/control principles for plant and equipment. ✔ Resource Allocations: Analysed breakdown frequencies and time expended on repairs to devise methods for rapid resolution and greatest return-on-investment. 80/20 rule provided a sharper focus on orders of priority. ✔ Low-Cost Methods/Operator Watch-keeping: Used simple monitoring tools to conduct regular inspections of all equipment. Frequent scrutiny of “low criticality” equipment prevented breakdowns and saved the high cost of maintenance for equipment failure. ✔ “Five Senses” Maintenance: Recommended operators conduct minor maintenance regularly, using all senses to condition-monitor the plant. While tech-tools were used, operators were seen as a front-line of defence against failure. Visual inspections of worn parts provided real data for use in the preventative maintenance plan. ✔ Solved Persistent Faults in process incapacity. Trained engineers and improved the maintenance techniques for two, 5 ton/day membrane type waste-water treatment plants. ✔ Complex Problem Solving: Managed and maintained 18 high-speed propulsion shaft, double-rowed spherical roller bearings. ✔ Analytical Testing Methods/Fault Finding: Introduced tailored methods to suit new technologies.
