Peter Johnston, Senior Control Room Operator at Conocophillips

About

I have over 27 years experience in the water industry with Northumbrian water, firstly as a time served mechanical fitter and lead mechanical technician (18 years).

I then moved on to Brand Sands Regional Sludge Treatment Works & Effluent Treatment Works (RSTC &ETW) at the time it was the largest sludge drying plant in Europe. I then moved on to be a Process Technician/ CRO for 3 years then moved on to the role of Lead Production Technician (3 years) and then a further 3 years as a Production Team Leader.

i am currently now working in the oil and gas industry which I have been doing for the past 11 years employed by ConocoPhillips Phillips as a Senior Control Room Operator.

i would relish the opportunity to get back in to the water industry as commissioning and engineering are my roots and skills I have never lost and would hope to be able to use once again.
