Procurement Manager North Sea Well Services, Schlumberger
Business and International Trading graduated with over seven years experience in Supply Chain - Procurement & Sales in the Oil & Gas Industry.
I currently work for Schlumberger as a Procurement Manager responsible for all Supply Chain, Procurement and Third Parties Quality Management for Well Services Segment in the North Sea Geomarket. I am therefore managing a team of buyers based in all North Sea (UK, Norway, Denmark, and Netherlands).
My previous position was with Technip as a Purchasing Specialist mainly for Piping, Electrical and Instrumentation equipment and some Mechanical Packages on the Yemen LNG Project. In this function, I’ve been in charge of Tendering with searching for suppliers, evaluating bids, negotiating contract terms, writing recommendations for client approval and using systems to create and administrate purchase orders.
My experience is focused in the Oil & Gas Industry, which enables me to have a good view of different procurement practices and processes, technical knowledge in piping bulks and strong negotiation skills. I like being part of a team and I’m always willing to assist and advise others when required.
I started in the Ball Valves industry with joining Cooper Cameron Valves and then Tyco Flow Control Technologies as a Project Sales Engineer on a determined sales area. I was then preparing Technical and Commercial offers to answer Customers’ Tenders (both Contractors and EPCs) which have allowed me to gain perfect knowledge of a number of Major oil Companies particular technical specifications.
