Crude Transfer Pump Reliability & Asset Integrity Dashboard

  • Operational Modeling: Analyzed simulated sensor metrics (Vibration RMS, Lube Oil Temp) across 12 crude transfer pumps in 3 Rivers State operational hubs.
  • Financial Impact: Modeled $11.5M in deferred production losses using a $45,000/hr downtime valuation based on a 600 bph @ $75/bbl throughput framework.
  • Engineering Recommendation: Identified API Plan 11 seal failure trends caused by sand abrasion; proposed an API Plan 53B dual-barrier fluid system retrofit projecting a 2.5-month payback period.

    • Built using a statistically modeled synthetic dataset adhering to real-world API/ISO industrial parameters to maintain strict compliance with corporate NDAs

    About

    I am an entry-level Mechanical Engineer focused on predictive maintenance, hardware design, industrial data analytics, and equipment reliability. My core strengths lie in bridging the gap between CAD modeling, operational data analysis, and practical machinery maintenance to support high-uptime production systems.

    Through practical experience with SolidWorks assembly modeling, and Python time-series data parsing, I focus on identifying failure modes before they lead to downtime. I am eager to leverage my background in prototype development and shop-floor commissioning to drive operational efficiency in a fast-paced Engineering environment.
