Your expert instructor is a highly experienced professional in gas transmission pipeline engineering, bringing four decades of expertise to the energy sector. His career is distinguished by leadership in the design and engineering of both natural gas and hydrogen gas networks. In natural gas field, he participated in gas pipeline integrity review in Indonesia, gas pipeline uprating study in Singapore and common standards in pipeline design across Australia. His responsibilities have encompassed asset risk management, ISO 55001 asset management system audits and training, pipeline and asset integrity, operational and maintenance   excellence, as well as root cause failure investigations (RCA).

He worked first in Brisbane, Australia (February 2019 to August 2020), and then in Singapore (May 2015 to August 2020) as Principal Consultant at DNV GL. There, he led operational risk and integrity management initiatives, providing technical and operational expertise, developing risk methodologies, and sharing deep industry knowledge. His focus extended to strategic and operational business development in the downstream sector, with strengths in asset integrity management, pipelines in operation (AIMS & PIMS), safety, risk and failure investigation, and comprehensive audits.

Earlier in his career, he served as Engineering Compliance Manager at Lootah BCGas in Dubai, UAE, where he oversaw regulatory compliance for gas network design, operation, and maintenance. He managed the engineering department, delivered major projects, and provided technical guidance to operations and maintenance management. Additionally, at Northern Gas Networks in Sunderland, he held the roles of Integrity Engineer and Engineering Auditor, ensuring regulatory compliance and corporate assurance for gas systems.

His foundational experience was built at National Grid and British Gas/Transco, where he gained hands-on expertise as a Network Technician and Distribution Technician. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated a commitment to technical excellence, regulatory compliance, and innovation in gas transmission pipeline engineering, making him a respected leader in the field.
