Ken began his career with Dow Chemical where he worked in the production of chlorine and hydrogen gas. His experience includes Chief Chemical Engineer for the Sun Production Company Production Service Lab. He was assigned to eliminate produced fluid separation problems, both onshore and offshore, including FPSO, surface facilities, and drilling operations. Ken has designed novel processes for vapor recovery, produced fluids separation, emulsion breaking, returned drilling fluids, and water treatment systems. Also, he has evaluated a variety of in-place operations, including coalescers, flotation, filtration, ion exchange, vapor-liquid separators at more than 125 facilities. His work includes providing chemical engineering support to drilling, corrosion, cathodic protection, measurement and gas engineering departments. Ken is also an experienced forensic chemical investigator for the causes of fire incidents of vehicles and structures. He provides technical assistance to attorneys in personal injury cases. He is a certified radiation safety officer. Ken holds a B.S., Chemical Engineering (1972) from the University of Texas.
