Sandy Vasser, a prominent figure in oil and gas process automation, has been a key figure in the industry since his early career. He oversaw commissioning of process modules and power plant electrical and control systems and worked for several years supporting the companys operations. Following this, he moved to California to support construction of new offshore facilities and remained in California supporting the three offshore platforms and the onshore facilities. He also worked at Exxon Upstream Development Co. where he led a team of 125 professional electrical and automation engineers and technicians responsible for the design, construction, and startup of the power and automation systems for upstream projects. Vassers initiative, It Just Happens, challenged historical project practice and procedure in power and automated disciplines to eliminate unnecessary steps and reduce costs. The initiative also involved the development of universal I/O, virtual FATs, automatic SIS programming and automatic commissioning.
