My job at Crosstex started with the construction, commissioning and start up of the cryogenic plant I am at, the plant has 6 inlet compressors, 2 dehydrators, 2 recompressors and 1 refrigeration compressor. I was involved in the process safety management, pressure testing, the punch out list and the red line drawings of the facility. My daily responsibilities are; daily readings and electronic reporting, maintaining inlet flow with the inlet compressors, monitoring the DCS, performing a copper strip test, maintaining the amine strength, writing permits for contractors and performing LEL test and lockout tagout in the areas they will be working in, checking the gas chromatograph and plant measurement facilities this includes the inlet meter, the residue meter, fuel gas meter, and the liquid product turbine meters, checking the propane refrigeration system and the regeneration-dehydration system and maintaining the expander and the positive displacement pumps responsible for the y-grade liquid delivery.

1980 graduate of Pampa High School, Pampa Texas

From 1983 to 1998 I work for Natural Gas Pipeline Co. My measurement experience started by pulling and loading 24 hr charts on 33 dry flow meters.. I was in on some electronic measurement installations, but no programming. From 2002 to 2005 I worked for ANR Pipeline Co. With ANR I received training in electronic measurement, basic electronics, control loops, meter tube miking, lost and unaccounted for gas tracking and recovering, Daniel junior and senior fitting maintenance and repair, transmitter calibration, software loading and configuration, flow change calibrations, basic meter training in turbine meters, positive displacement meters, and orifice plate meters, Hart 275 Communicator training, and Heise calibrator training. I also have training in Daniel Ultra-sonic meters and Daniels Gas Chromatographs. My responsibilities were to maintain the meter stations, calibrate transmitters, install and check remote radios and solar panels at the meter locations, and witness calibrations at delivery and sales points. Also I had a Daniels 12¡¨ ultra-sonic meter and a Daniels 4 stream Gas Chromatograph which I had monthly calibration checks to maintain. I have witnessed but not performed a prover test on positive displacement meters.
I currently work for Crosstex Energy, where I am a plant operator. I do not have any measurement responsibilities at this plant other than reading and recording flows.
