Summary |
I am a piping designer with 17 years experience.
I trained for 5 years with Jacobs Engineering in Dublin, before taking on the contract circuit.
My experience has generally been in pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, although I have worked in the oil & gas, semi-conductor, mining, energy and renewable resources sectors, which I adapted to without any problems.
I spent two years as piping department manager for Fluor in Dublin, prior to their withdrawal from the Irish market.
I have worked extensively in Ireland and the U.K., and Australia.
I also run a web site for piping designers called pipingdesigners.com
I am currently working on a project through pipingdesigners.com to run training courses for PDS and SmartPlant applications for contractors in Dublin & Cork.
