16 Jun 2008 – 13 Dec 2009 SunWater, Water Services Division, Asset Management Section Electrical Project Engineer Duties involved: - Investigating and designing improvements to the control systems at various sites to provide more efficient control functionality and/or remote monitoring and control capability. This included sites where the existing equipment and systems were either obsolete or could no longer be supported. - Creating the tender documentation to implement the above designs, evaluation of submitted tenders, and project managing the awarded contracts as required. This included: - Writing detailed tender specifications; - Detailed design drawings and other related documentation; - Cost estimation; - Tender assessment; - Contract management; - Testing and Commissioning; - Being involved in the production and review of Operation & Maintenance Manuals. - Provide technical advice and assistance to project teams and operations staff on electrical and control aspects of SunWater plant & equipment. - Provide technical support to graduate engineers to aid their development of skills and experience. - Liaising with clients, both internal and external to SunWater, to ensure concerns relating to investigation and design of system improvements are addressed. - Liaising with clients, both internal and external to SunWater, during and after design upgrades, to ensure that the upgraded systems meet expectations and do not adversely impact on their other systems and operations.

10 Dec 2007 – 8 Feb 2008 CB&M Design Solutions P/L Electrical Project Manager Duties involved. - Configuring Citect SCADA system to display data, generate alarms (where applicable) and create reports to provide information derived from raw data, in readily usable form. - Migration of SCADA operator displays from RS View to Citect. This involved redrawing the RS View screens in Citect and, where the required PLC addressing was not present in RS View, examining the existing SLC 5000 PLC program to determine the appropriate PLC address (or addresses) to give the required Citect symbol animation. - Providing support to other team members in projects to ensure new designs are properly implemented.

30 Aug 2004 – 27 Nov 2007 Goulburn-Murray Water, Assets & Technical Services Division SCADA Engineer Duties involved: - Designing and implementing improvements to the control systems at various sites to provide more efficient control. - Designing and implementing improvements to the control systems at various sites to provide remote monitoring and control capability. - Provide technical assistance to aid in fault finding on operational plant.

At most locations where I was involved with plant updates the plant control was provided by Motorola MOSCAD PLCs (the MOSCAD-L variant was used at a few locations), and AB SLC 500 series (5/02, 5/03 and 5/05 were the most common types) at other locations.

20 Aug 2001 – 13 Aug 2004 Gippsland Water, Environment and Planning Division SCADA and Controls Engineer Duties involved: - Modifying plant to permit collection of plant information (digital and analogue) by a SCADA system. - Configuring SCADA system to display data and, where applicable, generate alarms. - Creation of SCADA reports to provide information, derived from raw data, in readily usable form. - Designing and implementing improvements to the process control systems at various plants to aid control, improve efficiency and/or reduce expenditures (energy and/or process chemicals). - Provide technical assistance to aid in fault finding on operational plant.

The SCADA applications I was involved with modifying were the Citect system (at most water and wastewater treatment plants) and the Rubicon ScadaConnect package (used to view plant and pump station data remotely). The PLCs I was involved with updating were the AB SLC 500 series (the 5/02, 5/03, 5/04 and 5/05 were all types encountered), Motorola MOSCAD PLCs at many of the pump stations, a number of MOSCAD-L PLCs, several Siemens S5 series PLCs and a KOYO PLC at one plant (model DL405). Several of the jobs also involved configuring and updating the ProFace series operator interface panels.

One job of note I was involved with (at Morwell WasteWater Treatment Plant) involved implementing a DeviceNet network to expand an existing AB PLC installation – this job also involved creating a new Citect project for this plant (one did not exist previously). A direct benefit of this project was improved monitoring and control of chemical dosing, resulting in significant saving in operational costs. A second job of note involved implementing a Modbus link (at Moe WasteWater Treatment Plant) between the KOYO PLC (mentioned above) and a SLC PLC existing at the plant Inlet Works, in order to enable Citect to access data from this PLC – this link being the cheapest and most cost effective method to provide required functionality.
