To Whom It May Concern:

I would like to be considered as a valuable asset to your company as a pipeline inspector. During 30 years of experience as a full-time Equitable Gas employee and as an experienced pipeline inspector I am very familiar with all aspects of field work in the natural gas industry.

After working for Equitable Resources for 30 years, one of the leading natural gas companies in the Appalachian Region, as well as my experience as a utility pipeline inspector I have become very knowledgeable on the regulations and safety standards associated with pipeline construction. While working for Equitable I became very adept at solving on site problems efficiently and properly. I also have extensive safety training. While most people do not switch jobs after 30 years, I have discovered that the pipeline industry is extremely interesting and fulfilling. I now have the ability to draw upon my experience and knowledge and apply it to another branch of the natural gas industry. Furthermore, I am experienced in thorough record keeping such as leak reports, as-builts, etc. I also have the computer knowledge necessary to complete the requirements of day-to-day necessities.

When hiring me, you will receive an enthusiastic employee who is prompt, committed, and excited about being on the job.
