I started working since 1982 for Sonatrach (Oil National Company) as Oil Facilities Engineer for 8 years before to move to hydraulic projects where I worked as project
engineer for 5 years in the engineering and the supervision of the construction then as project manager for 5 years where I acheived a hydraulic project (pumping station, reservoirs, building and pipeline network).
In terms of major projects, I have also participated actively since 2001 as end user in the engineering of Ourhoud oil field (250.000 BOPD), then in the commissioning and start up phases as a leader of various discipline engineers to coordinate supervision activities especially for civil, pipeline, piping, instrumentation and electricity. Once the production started in 2002, I have been working to date as Technical Manager for the management of all additional projects related to the field including various disciplines in engineering, procurement and construction for connecting new development wells and all plant & field modifications required after trouble-shooting and appropriate studies. All the projects are completed according to a high HSE and QA/QC requirements.
I also have in charge to lead plant inspection and corrosion management completed by internal and external appropriate teams.
