About Founder
Roy O. Christensen helps capital projects in energy and other industries save money and time by implementing best practices for knowledge transfer and project communication. Roy’s >35 years’ experience as a Welding Engineering Technologist, authorship of countless technical guidance documents (i.e., instructions, manuals, plans, proposals, reports, and specifications), and founding of the KT Project (2018) generate and sustain profits and success for valued clients.
Roy has decades of experience as a Pressure Welder, Non-destructive Examination (NDE) Technician, Third Party Inspector, Welding/Coating/Civil Pipeline Inspector, Inspection Supervisor, Factory Acceptance Test Coordinator, and Supplier Quality Surveillance (SQS) Coordinator for energy and other industrial projects.
He is also a prolific published author who shares specialized technical expertise in media forums and publications such as the AWS Welding Journal, CHOA Blog, CINDE Journal, Energies Media, Engineering News-Record, EnergyNow, JWN Energy, Inspectioneering Journal, KT Project, and Oilman Magazine. Today, to stay current with industry, Roy has continued working in SQS coordinator and other roles for energy and other projects. This informs him of changing industry trends and requirements, and supports resolving challenges with affordable, modern, appropriate solutions.
Roy integrates and summarizes practical experience and vast knowledge of project solutions into the KT Project. It is the foundation upon which Roy delivers solutions. The KT Project comprises key documents (best practices and guidelines) that support the successful delivery of energy and other industrial projects (e.g., industrial, infrastructure, mining, and power). The signature guideline is the Glossary of Common Industry and Project Terminology which defines thousands of common acronyms, abbreviations, phrases, and terms. This work is continuously expanded to include meanings for existing, new, and special terminology. It will also be published and available for purchase as an eBook or print book on Amazon In late 2024. Finally, KT Project deploys knowledge transfer strategies to facilitate the effective and efficient transfer of knowledge between advancing, departing, and incoming professionals that save valued clients significant money and time.
