About Bui Ngoc Kien


I am Kien, from Vietnam. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Environmental Engineering from the University. Returning to my hometown, where the largest Refinery and Petrochemical Plant project (Nghi Son Refinery & Petrochemical - NSRP) in Southeast Asia was being constructed, I joined the project as an HSSE Supervisor. It was here that I began my journey of learning to become a professional HSSE Officer within the construction phase of the project, under the guidance of the largest Construction Company participating at the time.
Through this experience, I honed my skills and eventually transitioned into the role of an HSSE Manager, overseeing significant projects such as the Nghi Son 2 Thermal Power Plant (NS2PC) project, VPL Nearshore Wind Power Plant project, Biological Pond System project, Defect Confirmation Shutdown Maintenance 2019, and the 1st major Turn Around 2023 of the Nghi Son Refinery & Petrochemical Plant in Vietnam. In these roles, I functioned as both an HSSE Manager and Leader.
Currently, I am back at the plant where I began my HSSE career, working as an HSSE Officer. My passion for HSSE drives me to learn and grow professionally every single day.
