EXPERIENCEEXPERIENCE
Columbia Gulf Transmission Co., Houston, Texas 1987-2003Team Lead, Lead IT Analyst, and Systems Analyst for Real-time Systems
• Lead Business Analyst for gas control, measurement, modeling and technical services teams, integrating real-time pipeline data with business applications and providing primary IT support.
• Provided 24x7 technical support and training of integrated gas control, measurement verification and transient/steady-state model applications and systems. Thorough understanding of process and architecture permitted rapid troubleshooting and resolution of problems.
• Performed database configuration of compressor station and flow measurement telemetry. In 2003, successfully managed the SCADA side of a compressor station automation project that allows unattended operation of compressors in Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Kentucky by Houston-based Gas Controllers.
• Designed, built and maintained operator interface screens used by gas control, measurement and field personnel.
• Designed screens interfacing real-time data into the company Intranet, permitting maintenance technicians to remotely monitor and troubleshoot communications failures, reducing costly site visits and after-hours callouts.

This training tool illustrates how the SCADA system broadcasts a data request, and only the device with the correct address responds.
Normally, of course, such scans are automatically triggered on a set schedule or by specific events. Dozens or even hundreds of devices can be scanned simultaneously, and at frequencies ranging from seconds to weeks.
