Started off as an operator for Crosstex energy that was purchased by Kinder Morgan Treating division.

Operated amine treating plants that included dehydration, line heaters, and cryogenic plants.

Operated from well head to treaters to remove the H2S sour gas, and CO2 from the gas stream and dry the gas thru the dehydrator systems and send the clean gas to the sales line.

I moved up to plant startup where i went to newly constructed plants to commission them and train new operators in safe process procedures.

I finished my tenure by performing the construction, building new plants and starting them up making sure they were operating to required specifications for pipeline quality, trained new operators for those plants, and performed on site and remote trouble shooting of our systems.

I have worked on, installed, and demobilized over 250 modular amine plants in over 13 years in the treating field.
