Dawood Hercules Chemicals Ltd | Lahore, Pakistan Urea Plant Operator

• Operated and monitored high-pressure urea synthesis units (CO₂, ammonia, ammonium carbamate systems) while performing real-time process optimisation through continuous control of critical production parameters to maximise yield and maintain ISO 9001:2000 product quality standards. • Performed inspections and basic troubleshooting of reactors, compressors, heat exchangers, and pumps. Coordinated with engineering and maintenance teams during turnarounds, shutdowns, and emergency restarts to minimise production downtime. • Executed complete permit-to-work steps: equipment isolation, lock-out/tag-out (LOTO), depressurising, venting of toxic materials, safe handover to maintenance, and post-work recommissioning. Had explicit authority to stop any non-compliant work and escalate to management. • Conducted regular safety rounds across Urea, Ammonia, and Utility plants, inspecting ongoing work activities, verifying compliance with safety protocols, and ensuring permit conditions were met before any job commenced. • Served as the mandatory safety verification point before high-risk activities, including scaffolding work, confined space entry, and maintenance jobs. • Trained junior operators and apprentices on safe operating procedures, permit-to-work execution, and hazard awareness. Maintained firefighting systems, PPE, first-aid stations, and emergency response equipment to ensure operational readiness.
