Patricia Stamatoyannakis, P.E. has worked over a decade in the energy midstream sector as a chemical engineer. Her experience includes both process and project engineering roles for business expansion and operational improvement projects. Friendships made with women have played a pivotal role in her development and growth, supporting her with a sense of community and kinship throughout the seasons of her life. Patricia was fortunate enough to have several intelligent women in her chemical engineering school that helped sustain her throughout her studies with continued friendships to today. Her involvement in SWE at the collegiate level included travel to a national conference in Los Angeles and her current involvement in book club which combines her passion for books and talking is something she looks forward to every month.
Patricia began her career in 2012 with DCP Midstream in Houston, Texas. At DCP Midstream, Patricia worked with operations to ensure that the Texas Railroad Commission and OSHA standards were met for propane refrigeration and compression maintenance through necessary modifications. She participated as a technical resource for several plant turnarounds and as the project manager for capital midstream projects.
Once hired on at Freese and Nichols in 2013, Patricia expanded her technical experience with process simulation, sizing calculations, and developing company standards. Her technical roles with midstream clients included engineering design, engineering drawings, and equipment procurement for projects. These numerous projects included compressor stations, meter stations, pipelines, and gas processing plants for the midstream sector.
In 2015, while developing their company piping standards, Patricia was hired on as a Facilities Engineer for Medallion Midstream in Irving, Texas. Wearing multiple hats, Patricia was the lead project manager, project engineer, process engineer, and operations engineer for a large natural gas system in the Delaware Basin. She installed a gathering system from wellsite to transmission lines and completed a 120 MMSCFD cryogenic plant. Plant inlet volumes were sources via numerous field compressor stations with dehydration and amine plants.
Patricia joined Aethon Energy in 2019 to build their midstream portfolio in the Haynesville Shale, as she managed their largest amine and dehydration plant installation to date. Due to their size, Patricia oversaw regulatory Process Safety Management & OSHA requirements. Patricia was also involved as a project manager in Aethon Energy’s pipeline division, and worked with the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers to permit 3 Red River crossings, purchase over 30 miles of pipeline right-of-way, and install several pipeline projects.
Patricia now works as Consultant for Pearson Adair & Co., an Oil and Gas Industry consulting firm that provides technical and economic advice to clients in the energy sector seeking to evaluate and resolve issues that are industry specific. Her experience with design, construction, and operations provides technical and economic expertise to evaluate matters for litigation support, due diligence, arbitration, construction disputes, and royalty disputes.
