I have a personal favor to ask the board.
I'm looking for somebody with good refining knowledge that would be willing to talk to a Master's student (my son) for a 15-20 minutes to assist him and his project team that is working on a practica project.
He is attending American University in D.C. getting his Masters in a SIS program which a feeder program to train for foreign service. (Great Timing!) So the team he is on doesn't have oil patch knowledge. The problem is to research and determine refining production capabilities and products in Iran to help inform the development of American Foreign policy. It' a capstone project and the presentation will be made to the State Department. So it's a big deal for him. Given the job market in that field, it's pretty important to make a good impression.
They of course are exhausting all publicly available sources (they are aware of) to get as much knowledge as they can. But they are hindered by their lack of refining knowledge in the search. As a few examples, they need to understand the finer differences between non-crude products like LPG vs LNG. Another example is they need to better understand handling and storage issues in export with different products. They have to find everything they can and then make projections to fill the rest.
I'm just a geologist that is not in the oil patch so I'm not much help.
Just let me know on this thread if you are willing to lend a hand, and I'll message with contact info.
Thank you very much.
Back to your regular programming.
