Work History

D.A. Engineer / CP Engineer

Dong Yang Corrosion Engg. Co. Ltd.
Kuwait, Kuwait
12.2011 - Current
  • Planned, supervised, and executed routine and non-routine corrosion mitigation and control programs across multiple operational areas, ensuring asset reliability and regulatory compliance.
  • Performed comprehensive rectifier surveys, installing, evaluating, testing, and troubleshooting AC/DC rectifiers to diagnose component failures and restore optimal CP performance.
  • Developed and implemented critical work programs including Cathodic Protection (CP) system maintenance, failure investigations, coating inspection and evaluation, and data collection and processing activities.
  • Led commissioning of new CP systems, producing complete as-built documentation, system configuration records, and functional validation reports.
  • Supervised installation and commissioning of deep-well, horizontal, and vertical groundbed systems, ensuring proper design execution and long-term performance.
  • Managed both external and internal corrosion control activities, including periodic monitoring, testing, and assessment of CP-protected structures and pipeline systems.
  • Applied advanced pipeline integrity management techniques such as ECDA, ICDA (including flow modeling), and SCCDA to evaluate corrosion threats and plan mitigation strategies.
  • Executed field integrity surveys including CIPS, DCVG, ACVG, CAT (AC attenuation), interference testing, and soil resistivity surveys to assess coating condition and CP performance.
  • Utilized GPS equipment and post-processing tools to support accurate pipeline mapping, survey alignment, and data validation.
  • Calculated pipeline failure pressure in compliance with applicable safety factors, engineering standards, and integrity assessment methodologies.
  • Conducted root cause analysis (RCA) for time-independent corrosion-related failures, identifying contributing factors and recommending corrective actions.
  • Performed MIC analysis to detect and characterize microbiologically influenced corrosion in pipeline systems.
  • Evaluated pipeline coating degradation associated with corrosion processes and recommended appropriate repair or rehabilitation methods.
  • Prepared high-quality technical reports, including survey results, failure investigation summaries, corrosion risk assessments, and CP performance reviews.
  • Planned and executed corrosion monitoring activities with a focus on cost efficiency, operational safety, and continuous improvement.
  • Ensured that all corrosion mitigation measures were implemented in accordance with industry standards, including API, ASME, and NACE requirements.
