Nhlakanipho Nzama

I am a Chemical Process Field Operator with 10 years of experience working at Engen, an oil refining company in South Africa. Being involved in many turnarounds, daily running of different units, and troubleshooting of the refinery operation problems, I am confident in my capabilities to run several refinery units, such as Sulphur Recovery, Sour Water Stripper, and Amine Recovery Units to name a few. With the knowledge and experience gained over the years, I have had a chance to be a part of the commissioning crew at the Petronas/Aramco oil refinery in Malaysia. I am a fast learner and a dedicated field operator. I am willing to add to the knowledge I have. I am always ready for new experiences and willing to tackle any task at hand.
