Meet the Moderator: danbuk

One word that best describes you?

Quiet

I should say so. One post to date.

Good to have you aboard. I am uncertain of admin policy, but I think most of us sort of enjoy a comment now and again from a moderator who is out 'on patrol'. ^{_{That is, unless you are scolding me for feeding the trolls!}}

Thanks Doorman. I will try and post more often

So CR4 is not actually a career change

Welcome

Hi danbuk,

Welcome to Forum CR4. I am from India retired Marketing Manager. I worked for 33 years as Marketing man. I can send you my Marketing experience in this part of the world if you would be interested.

God Bless You,

Suresh Sharma.

Thanks Sureah Sharma. I am always interested to hear of peoples experiences working in the marketing field.

Welcome danbuk. I think 34.5 pretty well summed it up, we are all freaking nuts. Beware your sanity.

Is it me or does CR4 seem to recruit heavily from Rensselaer? Nothing against the school or anything, but diversity of thought and experience sometimes is a good thing....

A little about myself:

I have been working in various aspects of the oil and gas business for most of my 23 years of work, but I have done various other jobs as well: designing ruggedized computer chassis, managing a photoplotting service office, designing and maintaining steel mill equipment, even selling retail electronics when I was in college. About 6 years ago I was part of a team that was one of five finalists for the ASME Woeffel prize at OTC that year for a device to drill into and kill damaged subsea oil wells. A few years before that I was part of a team that was part of a pilot project for distributed electricity generation using PEM fuel cells and steam cracked natural gas for residential use. I've designed or worked on equipment for Boeing, NASA, United Space Alliance, Oceaneering Space Systems, Reliant Energy, Oceaneering, Sonsub, BP, FMC, Cudd Energy Services, Cameron, Transocean, Hydril, and many others.

I'm an information and news junkie and highly partisan. I can also be a real jerk when confronted with people I deem to be idiots (and unfortunately there are a few that inhabit the halls of CR4). I do not suffer fools gladly. Ya can't live with em, and ya can't kill em, so what is a man to do?

Thanks Rorschach. It certainly sounds like you have had a lot of interesting experiences during your career, especially being considered for the ASME Woeffel prize.

I am also an information and news junkie and what better place to find a lot of interesting topics than CR4
