ConocoPhillips Contracts Administration Experience____________________________

ConocoPhillips is the third-largest integrated energy company in the United States. With approximately 32,600 employees work worldwide, with operations in nearly 40 counties. The Sweeny refinery, located in Old Ocean, Texas, 65 miles southwest of Houston, has crude oil processing capacity of 247,000 barrels per day. The refinery processes mainly heavy, high-sulfur crude oil, but also processes light, low-sulfur crude oil.

Positions held:

(2001 to May, 2008) Contract Administrator –RMT (Refining) Division - Sweeny Refinery

Day to day administration of the contractors under my realm of responsibility as well as the pre-award and execution of all new contracts as required to meet the needs of the refinery. Following the standard processes and procedures for routing all contracts and exceptions thru the Legal Department and also thru the various levels of plant management for approval before execution.

In 2007 used an online auction system to bid out the plant trash pickup and disposal. Estimated savings for each year are $30,000 and vastly improved service.

During 2007 thru the use of the competitive bid process, I was able to save approximately $410,000.

Created and maintained the rates schedules for all of our alliance contractors, Zachry, ISI, and Hydrochem in outline agreements in SAP. The annual spend for all 3 contracts is $22,000,000. Actively manage any and all changes to these agreements to allow ebilling to occur and fully utilize our electronic systems.

In 2006, facilitated the team that selected ISI as our Alliance Contractor for scaffolding, painting, insulation, and asbestos abatement. This contractor was set up under OCIP, (Owner Controlled Insurance Program), and generated a savings of $159,000 per year for the next 3 years for a total savings of $477,000. Reduced the total markup by having the FUI and SUI deducted out and we will pay only actual costs incurred. This generated estimated savings of $180,000 per year or $540,000 over the next 3 years. The value of this contract is approximately $2,000,000 per year.

Instituted the use of contractor commitment letters for our major scheduled turnarounds to overcome the shortage of highly skilled labor along the U.S. Gulf Coast Area after Hurricane Katrina.

Applied the new directive where ConocoPhillips provides all the rental equipment required for all the tank cleaning and tank repair contractors. Thus eliminating contractor markups and using favorable previously established corporate discount pricing.

In 2005 led the team that negotiated a new 3 year contract with Zachry to perform all of our day to day maintenance and turnaround support. This contract has a yearly value of approximately $10,000,000.

In 2004 competitively bid out the tank seal inspection for the refinery with a savings of $100,000.

During 2004, led a team that was able to find an alternate process of treating the desalter mudwash waste stream. By switching contractors and processes, over 1000 tons of solid hazardous waste was eliminated. The annual operating savings are in excess of $750,000 per year.

Use ISNetworld as a tool to prospect for and evaluate new contractors that could add value at our facility. This is an online database of companies with all their safety statistics and prequalification information available for review.

Actively participated on the Purchasing Safety Action Team and the Contractor Safety Association. We actively try to educate and influence the behaviors of the contract employees to reduce the number of incidents and accidents that occur onsite.

Devoted extensive time and energy to improving communications with all internal customers. These improved lines of communications led to a greater cooperative relationship between Procurement and Operations Teams. This relationship has led to earlier contract administration involvement and greater cost savings in jobs that are formally bid.

Identify and actively recruit minority and woman owned companies to provide needed services at our facility.

The majority of my expertise is in purchasing services, but every eight weeks I am the buyer on call for the entire refinery. In the past I have purchased materials as varied as steel plate, concrete, catalyst, nitrogen, valves, and everything in between. Services are my main area but I do have a background in purchasing commodities as well.

Networked with other ConocoPhillips refineries on an ongoing basis to share best in class practices and to find out more information about contractor performance at different sites. This active sharing process has been highly beneficial to the company as whole. It has greatly expanded the knowledge base of the contract administrators.
