I’ve worked with Tony as a colleague at Shell, but also when I was working for Baker Hughes. Tony is very helpfull, professional and is very involved in the things that happens in his asset. As a colleague but also as a contractor it was a pleasure to work with Tony and I would definitely recommend Tony as a Process Chemist.
Henk van Moorsel
I have worked with Tony on the gas production assets in the East of the Netherlands. I learned Tony to be a very knowledgeable and hardworking individual whom is always willing to help in complex situations. Tony has very solid understanding of the upstream processes and especially the chemical side of that. He has demonstrated very good project management skills and was able to transfer his knowledge and energy to the colleagues around him. His easy going nature and good team working skills make him very effective and easy to work with.

I was awarded a unique internship through the International Association of the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience (IAESTE) programme. Conducted two major projects within the research and development department of one of Switzerland´s oldest chemical companies. In practice, I looked at attempting to enhance the laboratory reaction conditions and thus, product performance; ultimately so that this could be implemented to large scale chemical manufacturing.
