As Senior Mechanical Engineer in Production Planning at L&T Energy Hydrocarbon's offshore facility in Sohar, Oman (07/2024–Present), I spearhead painting and passive fire protection (PFP) planning for multimillion-OMR Aramco modules, including CRPO 117/118/119 (₹30 crore scope) and ZULF field PDMs/TPs (₹6 crore scope). Leading a workforce of ~163 (23 direct reports, ~140 indirect), I optimized Jotachar 1709 application via drawing-controlled spray techniques and material reheating/reuse, slashing consumption by ~20% (from 1.40 to 1.14 kg/m²/mm, saving ₹19.5 lakh) and trimming application time by ~10% (from 5.4 to 4.86 min/m², yielding ₹54,000 in labor savings). These gains, powered by Advanced Excel (VBA/Power Query) and Power BI dashboards for real-time KPI tracking, ensured zero punch-point handovers for 16 PDMs and 1 TP—verified by Aramco SAPMT—while driving punch closure, RFI coordination, and on-time sailaways amid tight fabrication yard deadlines.

About

I am a Senior Mechanical & Production Planning Engineer with hands-on experience in offshore module fabrication, painting, and Passive Fire Protection (PFP) planning for large-scale EPC projects. In my current role, I manage multi-level teams of over 160 personnel, oversee material reconciliation and procurement handoffs, and ensure on-time project delivery and punch-point-free sailaways. My work has driven measurable results, including ~20% reduction in material consumption and ~10% improvement in application productivity, translating into significant cost savings for clients. Beyond technical execution, I excel at production planning, resource allocation, RFI/RFQ coordination, and KPI reporting, leveraging tools such as Advanced Excel, VBA, Power Query, and Power BI dashboards to optimize processes and support decision-making. I am passionate about process optimization, cost efficiency, and cross-functional collaboration, and I am now looking to expand my career into consulting, finance, or other industries where I can apply my analytical, planning, and operational expertise to drive value. Open to networking and opportunities globally (UAE, Japan, EU, India), I enjoy connecting with professionals who share an interest in engineering, operations, or process improvement. Outside of work, I am an avid chess player and enjoy puzzle-solving, including Rubik’s Cube challenges—because just like in engineering, the solution often comes from creative problem-solving and persistence.
