Renjith Chandran Nair
NACE PCS, NACE Senior Coating Inspector Level3
Summary
With over 20 years of experience in the field of Coating, Insulation, and Fire Proofing Engineering, I have developed expertise in a wide range of areas. From conventional blasting to robotic hydro blasting, marine coating to pipeline coatings, chemical storage tank lining to concrete sump and chemical spillage floor lining, I have successfully handled various projects using different materials such as high build epoxy, vinyl ester, polyester, rubber lining, and glass lining. Additionally, my skills extend to insulation (hot, acoustic, and cryogenic), fireproofing (coating and cementations type), and non-metallic repair of piping and equipment as per ASME PCC-2 standards. As the Engineering Program Coating and Insulation Discipline Lead for a $20 billion petrochemical project with 26 production units, I have proven my ability to effectively manage large-scale projects.
