The work is challenging and there are many opportunities for new concepts and new products to be discovered and developed. 

You will need to network with your peers, learn from other fields and functions within the company and attend trainings, webinars and talks whenever available  as the knowledge acquired is worth the sacrifice 

I make myself marketable through my sharing of expertise, experience and knowledge as well as friendly approachable nature and willingness to train and mentor others. 

My next career goal is to be a successful technical consultant, trainer and mentor.  This is the reason why I am pursuing my ACLP diploma. 

There was a decision to be made concerning malfunction turbines at a power station which was blamed on the lubricant being not up to specifications. I confirmed that the lubricant was up to specifications and pointed to the problem of the turbines not being correctly balanced. The turbines were later balanced and the power station resumed operation using the same lubricant and without any issues.    

The biggest challenge that I face in this field are the fact that we are dealing with a fossil product and it also contribute to the carbon footprint. These are the challenges we will need to overcome to ensure the success of the petroleum industry. 

I have the opportunity to be on job rotation within the company and has worked in operations, marketing, customer services, distributor management, training and mentoring. I found that I am well suited in the above roles through my years in the company. 

I will bring my expertise, knowledge, experience, training and mentoring skills as well as the success stories and encounters to a team when I join them. 

I am self-motivated and will always strive to excel in whatever I do.

This was a real example where the lubricant was infected with bacteria which is extremely unusual.  I had to convince the R D staff that the bacteria was depleting the additive in the lubricant and that a biocide had to be incorporated into the lubricant to prevent the infection. 

My main interest is in organic chemistry and new technology which fits in well with my career as that is what keeps you updated in your field.

I am an independent, self starter and motivator who will always strive to achieve the best performance or result possible for the team.

This was a situation where a production machine broke down before midnight. I had to be present to help rectified so that the products can be shipped out in the morning. I was present throughout the night until we have rectified the problem and had the product made and shipped out.
