Instructors
Evan Hyde consults on processing improvement and reliability
initiatives for coking clients around the world. He participated
in onsite peer assessments of Coker Units at five refineries
which included improvements in maintenance work practices,
process enhancements, and turnaround scope optimization.
Evan works for Becht Engineering Co.
www.Becht.com and
formerly ExxonMobil Research and
Engineering, as a process engineer, with assignments in
research, and troubleshooting for heavy oil upgrading equipment.
He holds a B.S. of Chemical Engineering from Pennsylvania State
University.
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.
Gary participated in the commissioning of the Hovensa Coker in the Virgin
Islands. Before long he was supervising their maintenance staff of 185. He has done Coker Site
Safety Audits in Asia, Europe, South America and North America. Gary currently consults with two
major manufacturers of delayed coking equipment as their subject matter expert for new product
development. With his vast experience working with coker people close to the iron, Gary—Mr.
Coking.com—is in high demand for consulting on unheading, drilling, operations, reliability,
safety and training.
