Obaid Ali
Process Consultant
After graduating from the University Of Karachi with honors in chemical engineering/technology, I spent 15+ years working in process design, project management, operational and executive roles for the oil, gas and petrochemical industries. My industrial background gives me a unique perspective as a trainer and facilitator of soft skills for engineers. In my career, I have got a chance to work with process teams of world-leading process engineering companies' i.e., Wood, OMV, Akkim, etc. In my spare time, I love to write technical manuals, articles, and guidelines.
