O.T. (Buzz) Mundt Earns Promotion

To Engineering Associate in Mechanical


Effective August 1, O. T.
(Buzz) Mundt of Mechanical -
Engineering has been promot-
ed to engineering associate.
The title of engineering asso-
ciate is the highest non-super-
visory position an engineer
can achieve at Lago.
This is granted only in cases
where many years of experi-
rience have been obtained in
a highly specialized area and
the individual is able to handle
major protects independently.
Only three others hold a simi-
lar title here.
Mr. Mundt is an authority
on Lago's electrical distribu-
tion system and has been the
project coordinator for the
Major Refinery Switchgear re-
placements during the last few
years.
He holds a BS and a Mas-
ter's degree in electrical engi-
neering (power option) from
the University of North Da-
kota and came to Lago in
1944. After a break in service
he returned in 1951. Prior to
his advancement, he had been
a senior engineer.
In addition to his 17 years
of Lago experience, Mr. Mundt
has had a varied background
in his electrical speciality. He
worked five years in a consut-
ing engineering firm in New
York, four years in an electri-
cal manufacturing firm in


0. T. Mundt


Pennsylvania and one year
with an electrical power com-
pany in North Dakota. He al-
so worked in Chile for three
years.
As part of the Process
Training Course, Mr. Mundt
gives 14 hours of instruction
in electrical generation.
In his spare time, he enjoys
tennis and swimming. On his
forthcoming vacation he has
plans to visit the Brokopondo
hydroelectric project in Suri-
nam.
Mr. Mundt is married and
has a daughter and two sons,
both college students who are
summer trainees at Lago. The
daughter is married.

Lago Cost Engineers

As Estimating Tool
Cost engineers in the Tech-
nical Department Economics
an Planning Division have re-
cently incorporated the com-
puter in their cost estimating
of piping work. The result is
a savings of about 75 per cent
of the manhours previously
used in this kind of work.
In addition, much of the
work can be done by a clerk,
releasing an engineer for
other pressing job require-
ments.
SThe basic idea was adopt-
ed at Lago by Engineering
Associate Bill Hedlund. It
was developed with C. A Mc-
Kinzie and I. Rusins of the
Systems Section. Experiment-
ing and debugging took less
than three weeks.

Now Use Computer

in New Projects
The first application of
this estimating technique is
in connection with the Oil
Movements project. Done
manually, the calculations of
total cost and manhours to
install piping for this pro-
ject would take about 40
days of an engineer's time.
It would require calculations
on each piece of pipe section
covered on some 378 isome-
tric drawings submitted by
the Arthur G. McKee compa-
ny.
Now, a clerk copies infor-
mation from the drawings
directly to a form which goes
to the key punching section.
Cards are punched so the
computer can handle the cal-

Federico Farro Receives Lago/ ICS

Diploma in Mechanical Engineering


Federico E. Farro, Engin-

Mechanical-Engineering De-
partment, became the first
member of a recent group to
receive an International Cor-
respondence School diploma

New PCAR Cargo Elevator
Can Hoist Men ,Material
During Next Turnaround
A new passenger-cargo ele-
vator capable of lifting twen-
ty men or 4000 pounds of
material at speeds up to 200
feet per minute, has been in-
stalled at Lago.
The new elevator can be
seen standing along the
northwest side of the PCAR
(Cat Plant). From a base on
the ground, two towers rise
into the air 187 feet. In bet-
ween the towers rides a 490
cubic foot elevator car.
The unit is easily control-
led with the use of one lever.
The lever, which has five po-
sitions, has a high and low
speed position for both the
upward and downward direc-
tions. At low speed the eleva-
tor car moves at 100 feet per
minute, while 200 feet per
minute can be obtained in
high.
The Alihoist will be used
extensively during the Cat
Plant turnaround early next
year. It will transport men
and material to work sites
on 15 levels.
One advantage of the Ali-
hoist is that it can carry
both passengers and mate-
rials. Elevators that carry
passengers must meet high
safety standards. Such safe-
ty standards also built into
the Alihoist.

At a luncheon held in his
honor at the Esso Club on
July 25, he was presented his
diploma by K. O. Oliver, Mech-
anical Division Superintendent
Engineering. Also present was
M. G. Murray, Supervising
Engineer, Refining Project
Section.
Mr. Farro began the cour-
se two years ago and spent up
to twenty hours per week
working on the assignments.
Engineers of the Mechanical-
Engineering Division were
available if assistance was ne-
cessary,
A special arrangement for
Lago employees was.made be-
tween Lago and ICS. Only
subjects necessary for Engin-
eering Division work and
those not adequately covered
by Lago training, were in-
cluded in the course
This is not the only course
which Mr. Farro has taken
part in. He began a four-year
apprentice program with the
Lago Vocational School in
1951. In 1962, he attended
night classes for a course in
Auto-Mechanics at the Aruba
Technical School. Recently,
he completed a Lago Power
Distribution Course and for
over a yeir he has participat-
ed in the English Language
Lab.
Mr. Farro is now busy with
a Lago Process Training
course where bua msat

When Is a Safety Rule
Not a Safety Rule?
When it is seen but not read.
When it is read but not applied.
When it is known but not obeyed-
When it is deliberately violated.
When it is winked at, sneered at, and finally ignored.
When it is not accepted in a spirit of cooperation and sports

And, lastly, when, after it has been found important enough
to be placed in the rule book, it is not strictly enforced by
those who should do so.

Standard Oil (New Jersey) Announces

Earnings Rise During First Six Months


Earnings for the first six
months of the Standard Oil
Company (New Jersey) and
its affiliates worldwide were
estimated at $563,000,000,
equal to $2.61 a share based
on the average of 215,445,000
shares outstanding. This re-
presents an increase of $2,000,
000 over the previous record
high of $561,000,000 or $2.60
a share reported for the first
half of 1966.
For the first six months,
total revenues from sales and.
investments were estimated
at $7,319,000,000, a rise of 9.8
per cent over the $6,664,000,
000 total for comparable pe-
riod last year. Reflecting a
6.9 per cent gain, petroleum
product sales worldwide grew
to an average of 4,685,000
barrels a day for the first
half 1967. Record levels were
also achieved in sales of natu-
ral gas as well as chemical
products.
Income and operating taxes,
together with import duties,
consumer taxes and other pay-
ments to U.S. and foreign go-
vernments, totaled $2,438,000,
000 for the first six months
of 1967. For the same period
In 1966 such payments totaled
$2,233,000,000.
Expenditures for property,
plant and equipment by the
consolidated companies total-
ed $640,000,000 for the first
half as compared with $457,
000,000 in the first six months
of 1966. In addition, in the
worldwide search for oil and
gas reserves, the total spent
and charged to income in
1967 was $105,000,000.


Gross production of crude
oil and natural gas liquids,
together with crude oil off-
take under special arrange-
ments, increased by 1.9 per
cent to an average of 4,578,
000 barrels a day. Refinery
runs by Jersey affiliates
worldwide averaged 4,272,000
barrels daily in the first half,
an increase of 3.9 per cent
over the same period last
year.

culations. The overall man-
hours is now less than ten
days or one fourth of the
time originally required. In
addition, there is a greater
accuracy in the final num-
bers. The computer program
includes self correcting pro-
cedures.
The use of computers, in
cost estimating is also dohe
at Esso Research and En-
engineering.
This computer-estimating
method was not used at La-
go in the past because there
wasn't enough volume of es-
timating work to justify it:
With the new Oil Movements
and Control House Moderni-
zation Projects the estimat-
ing work has grown to a
magnitude where the incor-
poration of a computer is
necessary to cut down work-
load.
Plans are now underway
to use the computer in other
cost estimating jobs such
as instrumentation, painting,
carpentry and electrical work.

More Efficient Firefighting at Units

Possible With Mobile Monitor Nozzles


One of the newest pieces of
firefighting equipment instal-
led in the refinery recently
was the mobile monitor noz-
zles. Mounted on a two-wheel,
low trailer are a nozzle with
connections and a tray cap-
able of holding two lengths of
lightweight fire hoses.
This additional fire protec-
tion equipment has been stat-
ioned at LEAR-1, LEAR-2,
PCAR, Units 9 & 10 and Com-
bination Units 5-6-7-8. The
new nozzles can be adjusted
from a straight stream to a
90-degree stream as marked


on the nozzle.
These new trailer-mounted
monitor nozzles, manufactur-
ed by National Foam System,
are lightweight and can be
handled by one man. Contrary
to the stationary equipment,
the hose and nozzle can be
easily moved to the closest
fire hydrant for more effective
firefighting.
The use of these mobile
units had been recommended
in a fire survey made at Lago
by R. F. Murphy of Esso Res-
earch and Engineering from
April to June, 1966.


This Lago-made carriage with mounted nozzle is in One of the new mobile monitor nozzles stationed
use for training, at LEAR-1.

Alihoist
(Continued from page 1)
One safety device which
the Alihoist is equipped with
is the Overspeed Governor.
The Overspeed Governor en-
gages two safety catches
that brake the cage to a halt
should the speed of the cage
exceed 280 feet per minute.
The Overspeed Governor al-
so automatically shuts off
the electrical power.
In the advent of a power
failure another braking me-
chnism engages and stops the
car.
Special switches are also
included to prevent the cage
from going beyond the al-
lowed distance in which the
cage can travel.
The Alihoist can be erect-
ed to great heights. In Bos-
ton, Mass. one Alihoist was
erected to a height of 500
feet for the use in the con-
struction of a new bank
building.

Is Window-Gazing a Waste of Time?

Sometimes it Can be a Real Lifesaver


A gleaming safety hat far
out at sea and two alert Lago
employees were responsible
for rescuing several people
recently. That a safety hat
can save lives on the job is a
well accepted fact. But that
these two employees could so
quickly react to a signal em-
anating from the protective
helmet is unusual.
What began as a pleasant
fishing trip on the morning of
July 27, could have ended in
a tragedy, except for a safety
hat and the resourcefulness of
one of the occupants of the
motorboat "Corsair."
The 28 feet BMC Comman-
der, Registration NA719, had
left Barcadera Harbor around
7 a.m. Skipper was Lago an-
nuitant Angel Dirks. Other
crewmembers were Juan Ras,
Boy Vrolik, and Mr. Dirks' 14
year-old son, Rudy.
A little after noon a shaft
connection failed and the boat
started to drift. Realizing that
they had to get help fast, Juan
Ras, who is an ACI employee,
used his aluminum safety hat
to signal a passing tanker. By
directing the sun's reflection
from the metal hat, he expect-
ed to attract attention from
the passer-by. To their re-
gret, their efforts went unno-
ticed by the tanker's crew-
members.
However, the signal caught
the attention of Eloy Kool-
man, a Lab employee, who
happened to look out of the


window at the time. He re-
ported his suspicion at once
to Alex Hoo, Acting Supervis-
ing Chemist in the Lab's In-
spection Section, who relayed
the message to A. W. Kelley,
Process Foreman in the Mar-
ine Building.
Mr. Kelley, who had also
been informed of the distress
signal by R. MacDonald of
the Technical Department, im-
mediately advised the San Ni-
colas government pilot boat,
which set out to tow the
"Corsair." By then she was
six miles off Savaneta.
The crew arrived safely at
Rodger's Beach at Seroe Colo-
rado a little before 4 p.m.
By this time, everyone was
curious as to what signalling
device they had used. No one
had the remotest idea that
they had used a safety hat as
a distress signal.
Although the safety helmet
saved their lives, one of the
reasons was that their target
was large, namely the whole
southern coast of Aruba. Had
they aimed only at a ship or
airplane, the smaller target
would have been difficult to
hit with sufficient precision
to attract attention.
This difficulty can be over-
come by carrying a signal
mirror, which has a sighting
device permitting precise aim-
ing of the sun's reflection
even at a small target many
miles away.


Government Pilot boat tows the "Corsair" bringing the crewmem-
bers to shore.
Loodsboot di Gobierno ta tow e "Corsair" y ta trece su tripulacio
na tera.


Juan Ras, an ACI employee had the presence of mind to use his
metal safety hat to signal for help.
Juan Ras, un empleado di ACI tabata esun cu a haya e bon idea
di usa su safety hat pa duna senjal pa pidi eyudo.


Four Employees Receive
FIs. 40 CYI Cash Awards
For Ideas Adopted in July
During July, four emplo-
yees received FIs. 40 cash
awards for their suggestions
which were adopted.
Francisco Solognier, an as-
sistant operator in Process-
Refining Division, suggested
to change the location of the
safety valve on the caustic
wash drum at Refining Div.
to avoid plugging off of the
nozzle at the outlet of the
Sdrum.
The suggestion of F. R. v/d
Linden, Pipefitter "A", in Me-
chanical O.M. Zone, was to
install a 1/2" i.d. galvanized
drain line on East and West
H.P. cylinder traps at No. 6
H.P. air compressor instead
of 1/4" i.d. line. This will per-
mit the water to run through
uniformly to maintain the wa-
ter level in the cylinder.
A safety idea was submit-
ted by Louis D. de Cuba, Wel-
der "A" in Mechanical M&C,
namely to install handrail
close to the hoist at No. 1
Powerhouse Roof West end.
This is to eliminate a hazard-
ous condition which exists
when the boilers are down for
inspection and superheated
tubes have to be hoisted or
lowered near the roof end.
The idea to have plastic
caps fabricated locally for
the protection of the thread
engagement on the fire hy-
drant hose connections was
submitted by L. A Peterson,
engineering assistant in Me-
chanical M&S Coord. The
plastics caps are more econo-
mical than the copper ones
now in use.
Cuatro Empleado a Recibi
FIs. 40 na Premio Di CYI
Pa Ideanan Acepta na Juli
Durante juli tabatin cuater
empleado cu a recibi premio
na placa, f. 40.-, pa nan su-
gerencia cu a keda aceptA.
Francisco Solognier, un as-
sistant operator den Process-
Refining, a sugeri pa cambia
lugar di un valvula di segu-
ridad den e caustic wash
drum di Refining Div. pa
evita cu e boquera den salida
di e drum verstop.
Sugerencia di F. R. v.d.
Linden, Pipefitter A den Me-
chanical O.M. Zone, ta di
install un tubo di 1/2 duim
den e linja di drenahe di ci-
lindronan pariba y pabao na
e compresor di aire No. 6, na
lugar di un tubo di 1/4 duim.
Esey ta haci cu awa ta pasa
door di e tubo cu mas unifor-
midad, y nivel di awa ta wor-
de manten6 bon den e cilin-
dro.
Un sugerencia tocante se-
guridad a bini di Louis D. de
Cuba, Welder A den Mecha-
nical M & C, esta di install
un leaning cerca di e hoist
den dak di banda pabao di
Powerhouse number 1. Esaki
ta elimina un situation peli-
groso cua ta existi ora e boi-
lernan ta for di servicio pa
inspection, y nan mester sa-
ca pipanan di superheater of
baha nan net banda di e dak.
E sugerencia pa laga traha
capa di plastic localmente pa
protection di e draad di
kraanchinan di awa pa paga
candela, a bini di L.A. Peter-
son, engineering assistant
den Mechanical-M & S Coord.
E capanan di plastic ta mas
barata cu esnan di koper ac-
tualmente na uso.

Vrolijk y un jiu di 14 anja di
Sr. Dirks cu jama Rudy.
Poco despues di 12 or' di
merdia un conexion di as a ki-
bra y e boto a cuminza drief
bai. Realizando cu nan mester
di judanza, anto liher, Juan
Ras cu ta un empleado di ACI
a usa su helm di aluminio pa
duna senjal na un tankero cu
tabata pasando. Dirigiendo re-
flexion di luz di solo for di su
helm di metal, el a spera di
hala atencion di e bapor cu
tabata pasando. Cu duele nan
a mira cu nan esfuerzonan no
a worde nota door di tripula-
cion di e tankero.
Pero si e senjal a hala aten-
cion di Eloy Koolman, un em-
pleado di Laboratorio, kende
casualmente tabata mira for
di bentana na e moment ey.
Mes ora el a report su sos-
pecho na Alex Hoo, Acting
Supervising Chemist den sec-
cion di inspection di Labora-
torio, kende a pasa e mensahe
pa A. W. Kelley, un Process
Foreman den Departamento
di Marina.
Sr. Kelley, kende a recibi

sali pa tow "Corsair". E ora
ey e boto tabata ya seis milja
pafor di Savaneta.
E tripulacion a jega salvo
na Rodger's Beach, Seroe Co-
lorado un ratu promer cu 4 or'
di atardi.
E ora ey tur hende tabata
curioso pa sabi ki sorto di
aparato pa duna senjal nan a
usa. Ningun hende tabatin ni
mas minima idea cu nan a usa
un helm di seguridad pa duna
senjal.
Aunque e helm di seguridad
a salba nan bida, un di e mo-
tibonan ta cu e tereno cu nan
kier a alcanza cu nan senjal-
nan ta grand, esta center
costa zuid di Aruba. Si nan a
mik solamente riba un barcu
of un aeroplano, lo tabata
basta dificil pa nan pa alcan-
za nan obhetivo cu suficiente
precision pa jama atencion
riba nan peliger.
E dificultad ski por worde
