About
Pressure Vessel Engineer | PED, EN 13445, ASME | Design, Calculation & CE Compliance
I am a Mechanical Engineer with extensive experience in pressure vessel design, engineering, manufacturing inspection, and certification, with a professional background of more than 15 years in the inspection and certification industry.
Throughout my career, I have worked on pressure equipment projects from both the manufacturer’s and third-party inspection/certification perspectives. This allows me to approach a project not only as a designer, but also with a clear understanding of what inspectors, certification bodies, and end users expect.
My areas of expertise include:
• Pressure vessel and pressure equipment design
• Engineering calculations and design verification
• PED 2014/68/EU compliance and conformity assessment
• EN 13445 pressure vessel projects
• ASME Section VIII pressure vessel projects
• Technical drawings and manufacturing documentation
• Design review and technical documentation review
• CE compliance and certification support
• Manufacturing and third-party inspection
• Technical file preparation and documentation
• Welding and quality requirements related to pressure equipment
• EN ISO 3834, EN 1090 and ISO 9001 related technical support
I have experience managing projects from the initial design stage through manufacturing, inspection, testing and final certification.
My focus is simple: providing technically correct, practical and certification-ready engineering solutions — not just calculations or drawings.
If you need support with a new pressure vessel design, an existing design that needs verification, PED/CE compliance, technical documentation, or preparation for third-party inspection and certification, I can help you take the project from requirements to a complete technical solution.
Let’s discuss your project and determine the most efficient path forward.
