Summary

I am a Mechanical Engineer with a B.Tech degree from NIT Calicut and 17 years of progressive experience in maintenance and reliability engineering within offshore oil and gas operations at ONGC. I hold certifications as a Certified Maintenance & Reliability Professional (CMRP) and a Professional Engineer (PE). My professional expertise includes rotating equipment, SAP PM, root cause analysis (RCA), failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), reliability-centered maintenance (RCM), and vibration analysis. I have successfully led critical maintenance and project initiatives that significantly reduced downtime and enhanced equipment reliability. In addition, I possess extensive experience in budget management, team leadership, training and development, and ensuring compliance with health, safety, and environmental (HSE) standards.
