Profile
  • I hold a Bachelor of Petroleum and Gas Engineering from Basrah University for Oil and Gas.
  • For fourteen months I ran the Yokogawa product line at Scientific Solutions Company — reading client specifications, selecting and quoting field instrumentation, and carrying offers through site visits, technical clarification and contract signature with Iraq's state operators and refineries.
  • That work sat between the process and the paperwork, and it taught me both. I am now deepening the instrumentation and control side, and looking for a role where the two fit together.
Experience

Sales Engineer — Yokogawa line

Jun 2025 – Aug 2026
Scientific Solutions Company · Basra
  • Held responsibility for the Yokogawa product line: field instrumentation and control equipment for oil, gas and refining clients.
  • Prepared and issued more than 100 technical and commercial offers, on tenders reaching above US$200,000.
  • Visited client sites at ROO, SRC, IOTC and MRC to follow up quotations, resolve technical specifications with end users, and carry contracts through to signature.
  • Translated process requirements into instrument selection — pressure, temperature, level and flow — rather than quoting from the catalogue alone.

Operations Coordinator

Nov 2021 – Dec 2022
AlADDA Company for Oil Services · Basra
  • Acted as the link between the office and the field supervisors — daily reports in, instructions out — keeping both sides working from the same picture.
  • Held the role for over a year while studying full time for the engineering degree.
Education

Bachelor of Petroleum & Gas Engineering

Graduated 2025
Basrah University for Oil and Gas
  • Graduation project — Formation Integrity Test. The pressure test run after a casing string is cemented, confirming the shoe and exposed formation will hold the mud weight planned for the next hole section before drilling continues.
  • The study covered how the test is planned and executed, how the result converts into an equivalent mud weight, and how that figure becomes the working pressure limit for the section below — including what it means when a formation fails to hold.

Siemens PLC

Programmable logic controllers — programming and control fundamentals, extending the instrumentation side of my work toward the systems that act on the measurement.

Currently studying

IELTS

Preparing for certification to formally document the English I already use daily in technical documentation and client correspondence.

Self-driven

Instrumentation and control is the part of this industry I actually want to be in, so I stopped waiting for an employer to teach me it.

  • I am working through measurement principles, control loops and PLC fundamentals on my own time — building on the instrumentation training and on fourteen months of reading real client specifications.
  • I use AI tools as part of that: comparing technical specifications across vendors, checking my own understanding, and covering ground faster than a textbook alone allows.
  • The habit matters more than any single course. Everything on this page beyond the degree was something I went and got.
