Project history

Owner / Senior Process & Commissioning Engineer

Glymur Consulting AB
Provides consultancy services in commissioning, process engineering, industrial automation and dynamic simulation. Focuses on commissioning strategy, test planning, multidisciplinary coordination, functional verification and system handover.

Simulator Engineer

Valmet - Simulator Team
Develops full dynamic recovery-boiler process models in Dymola/Modelica and integrates them with operational DCS environments including ABB 800xA and Valmet DNA. Models and verifies water/steam, combustion, flue-gas, feedwater, auxiliary and control-system behaviour for realistic start-up, shutdown, trip and disturbance scenarios. Supports virtual commissioning by testing control logic, sequences, interlocks and operator interactions before plant implementation or training deployment. Troubleshoots model/DCS interfaces and collaborates with process, automation and simulator specialists.

Process Lead

Worley
Led process activities and coordinated delivery for Worley's West Hub assignment at Nouryon, Bohus. Planned and led test runs of a new water-intake system to generate operating data for vibration measurements and equipment assessment. Coordinated test conditions, stakeholders and follow-up, and held project-management responsibility for technical close-out. Led a study for relocation of a district-heating substation and associated rerouting required to enable demolition of an existing building.

Process Engineer / Commissioning Lead

Pidab AB
Delivered process engineering, commissioning, control-system testing and simulation assignments for the process, energy and manufacturing industries. Planned and coordinated field verification including HART-based signal simulation and pressure testing of transmitters. Prepared SRS documentation and functionally verified SIL-classified high-level and overfill protection systems.

Commissioning Lead - Pigging Systems

AkzoNobel Coatings, Malmo
Planned and led commissioning and test runs for two new pigging systems used for unloading solvents and binders. Verified valves, interlocks and automated operating sequences and supported troubleshooting through start-up. Previously reviewed and revised P&IDs and produced functional descriptions and operating instructions for the systems.

Process Engineer

Selected Process Engineering Assignments
ST1, Lulea: ChemCad pressure-drop calculations and pump-replacement requirements for diesel unloading. ST1, Jonkoping: hydraulic analysis and corrective-action proposal for a petrol unloading pump. BKtech, Gothenburg: P&IDs and equipment list for a standardised powder-fired water-tube steam-boiler module.

Dynamic Simulation Engineer

Nouryon, Savannah
Built a ChemCad Dynamics model to assess flow dynamics and control strategy before construction of a chlorate plant.

Simulator / Virtual Commissioning Engineer

Valmet and Industrial Clients
Valmet, Gothenburg (Oct 2017-Aug 2019; Apr 2020-Jun 2022): built Dymola-based operator-training simulators for power and recovery boilers and connected process models to real DCS systems. Kemira, Helsingborg (2020): built a SIMIT model of a reformer furnace for FAT testing of sequences and a new burner-control system. SSAB, Lulea (2018): modelled two steam boilers in SIMIT for FAT verification of sequences and burner controls. Sandvik, Sandviken (Dec 2016-Apr 2017): developed a SIMIT process model to test new control software during FAT and supported commissioning of process equipment and control functions.

Commissioning Lead - Pump Room & Marine Loading Station

Stena Oil, Gothenburg
Planned and executed checkout and commissioning of a new pump room and loading station for oil transfer from storage tanks to the quay. Coordinated functional testing of pumps, valves, permissives, interlocks and automated transfer sequences.

Process Engineer / Design Lead

Poyry Sweden
OKG nuclear power plant: system design, technical investigations and review of technical documentation in line operations. Design lead for the TM discipline in the MILK O2 project, responsible for progress in a team of two designers and six system engineers. Reviewed safety analysis reports and system descriptions for future service operation of Oskarshamn Unit 1.

Project and Systems Engineer

Solvina AB
OKG: environmental qualification of safety-classified mechanical equipment credited in the nuclear safety analysis; assessed safety functions, response times, materials and accident environments. Sodra Cell Varo: feasibility study for supervisory steam-network control, including a mill-wide steam balance and evaluation of savings potential.
