Marcelo Rebello

Career objectives focus on the application of my experience and skills in challenging areas, increasing exposure to technology and business practices. For more than 35 years I have been working with Metallurgical and Mechanical Engineering, collecting a solid background and extensive experience in several technical subjects.

Available to travel and willing to relocate.

Specialties & Interests: metallurgy/materials, High-Temperature Oxidation, corrosion-resistant alloys (CRA’s), corrosion protection/management, material specification, material testing/inspection (including NDT), surface engineering, welding, research/development, consulting/advising, technical reports, quality (QA/QC), maintenance, structural/mechanical integrity, reliability, damage mechanisms affecting equipment (API 571), Failure Analysis & Root Cause Analysis, Asset Integrity Management (AIM) – Integrity Operating Window (IOW, API 584) and Risk-Based Inspection (RBI, API 580 and 581), Fitness for Service (ASME FFS-1 and API 579), Inspection Test Plan (ITP), technical support, technical sales, construction

ACADEMIC FORMATION (always in Brazil)

• Industrial Mechanical Engineer - July/88 / Full time, 5 years (CEFET/RJ)
• Stricto sensu post-graduations in Metallurgy & Materials Engineering:

MSc - December/93 (PUC-Rio) / Ph.D. - June/99 & Post-Doc - June/2002 (“Escola Politécnica”-USP, University of São Paulo)

Note 1: main research background in Physical Metallurgy, Phase Transformation, Corrosion & Degradation of Materials, High-Temperature Oxidation, Welding, Failure Analysis, general analytical tests of materials / materials characterization / mechanical tests

Note 2: throughout the post-graduation period and afterward he worked in parallel as a university teacher (see specific topic below)

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE SUMMARY

• During 25 years of consulting engineering, there have been opportunities to study and examine a wide variety of metal alloys, including; mild steels, cast irons, stainless steels, nickel alloys, copper alloys, and aluminum alloys. Minor cases involved ceramic, polymeric and composite materials. Work linked to research or product development, corrosion protection/management, maintenance, quality (QA/QC), production and technical sales.
• Participated in several projects (scientific and technological), sometimes as the leading person. Strong links with the Academy.
• Consulting engineering work has taken him to face welding procedures specification and analysis of welding problems, as well as its interaction with corrosion. NDT analysis (UT, PMI, Holiday test and X-Ray) as tools for materials inspection.
• Worked for a leading Oil & Gas EPC company in the Middle East for almost two years (WORK EXPERIENCE topic, item IV). It should be highlighted the activities of material specifications, as well as the revision of these specifications proposed by WORLEY PARSONS (consulting company specialized in the subject).
• Free-lancer consultant to BV (Bureau Veritas) and ADNOC group since 2016 (a specific topic on page 7).
• Working knowledge of international standards and codes (ASTM, API, NACE, ASME, ANSI).
• Material selection standards (ISO 21457, NORSOK M-001, API 571), as well as standards linked to Structural/Mechanical Integrity (API 579, 580, 581 and 584).
• H2S / sour service (NACE MR 0175/ISO 15156 and MR 0103), CO2 / sweet service and naphthenic corrosion.
• Corrosion inhibitor selection, corrosion monitoring and preservation, and cryogenic materials application.
• Welding Procedure Qualification as per AWS D 1.1.
• Vendors qualification and inspection.
• Teaching “Materials Science” to 3rd-semester mechanical engineers, Mario Schenberg – Ph.D. Teacher for 2½ years.
• Published and presented several papers mainly on high-temperature oxidation, corrosion, fracture and cracking of alloys and industrial components.
• Attended several scientific-technological conferences, including fairs.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE (17 years, night shifts and Saturdays morning)

- Professor at three Universities until leaving Brazil in May/2014: Mario Schenberg / FMS (from Feb/2012), FESP (from March/2012) and Estacio (from Feb/2013), and before for UNIb (Oct/2009 – July/2013), FECAP (Aug/2001 - Dec/2004) and UNIP (March/96 - Dec/2001) - responsible for several disciplines in Engineering, Administration, Logistics and Management courses

- Teaching and Research Assistant of PUC / Rio - DEMa (former DCMM) (Aug/91 - Aug/94)

SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTION
