I am extremely pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Abdelaziz Saafan. Abdelaziz and I worked collaboratively at a course and I found him a conscientious and very hardworkering professional. I can say very clearly that through his role as a project engineer he demonstrated his prowess in the field of mechanical engineering where he has high experience in many systems like (Fuel Systems, HVAC, FF, and PL) and he is brilliant in strategic planning, shop drawings and technical submittals. All these experiences have been gained from his work in Power Co. as a contractor in Oil & Gas where he also has excellent knowledge in API, ASME, ASTM and KOC specifications and standards.

Abdelaziz is wonderful and amazing to work with. He is an Engineer that has lots of knowledge in his field. He also has a high technical knowledge in Oil& Gas Industry as he is an API, ASTM, ASME and KOC standards and specifications expert. I highly recommend Abdelaziz as a high motivated engineer for any company as he will be an addition for any organization due to his high skills.
