About
I am a Senior Piping Stress Engineer with 18+ years of experience across oil and gas, LNG, refining, petrochemical and power projects, including nuclear power.
My expertise includes CAESAR II modelling, piping flexibility and stress analysis, equipment nozzle load assessment, pipe supports, spring hangers, expansion joints and above-ground pipeline analysis.
My experience covers:
• Preparation and checking of stress models, calculations and reports
• Thermal expansion, support settlement and imposed displacement assessments
• Support selection and recommendations for piping layout improvements
• Brownfield modifications and resolution of construction and operating-plant piping issues
• Technical review of engineering and vendor documentation
• Piping layout reviews and material take-offs
I have worked across FEED, detailed engineering, construction and operating-plant support, applying ASME B31.1, B31.3 and B31.8 as appropriate. My software experience includes CAESAR II, AutoPIPE, NozzlePRO and LICAD.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Mapúa Institute of Technology. My approach focuses on clear calculations, practical recommendations, constructability and careful attention to project requirements.
