Evan Hyde is currently president of C2 Nano Technology where they are developing
new surface treatments to combat fouling and corrosion issues in cokers and other
petrochemical process units. He was a Senior Engineering Advisor for Becht Engineering
Co., Inc. New Jersey. He has consulted on processing improvement and reliability initiatives
for coking clients around the world. He also participated in onsite peer assessments of Coker
Units at eight refineries which included improvements in maintenance work practices,
process enhancements, and turnaround scope optimization. 
Gary Pitman’s roots are in the Wyoming wildcat days of drilling gas wells. He brought that drilling background into the delayed coker as an operator, then moved on to maintenance and turnaround planning at ARCO/BP refineries. In 1998 he co-founded Coking.com with Paul Orlowski to promote Safety and Reliability in the coker.
