Projects, commissioning and operations.
One might have a question - where is better to start from: projects or operations?
I would say, for learning it is better to start in projects, then make commissioning of the same project.
In projects stage you learn how to design and there is a room for experiments and creativity.
In commissioning you learn a lot by fixing things to make them work.
However, it is true if you was involved from the project phase, otherwise you may lose hours investigating why someone wrote the code/design in particular way and not in the other way.
Also in commissioning you will find that many of design which was made during projects phase works different in reality (or even does not work).
In operations safety is a priority and every online change is a stress.
Much of time goes with collection of signatures and approvals for the change.
But operations show how things work together in reality, which you can simulate in no other environment.
Operations require different mindset.

Sharing thoughts...
Complex projects - require deep work and focus.
Being online throughout the day hurts for such works, managers should understand this fact if pursuing outstanding results with their teams.
Innovation - requires free time and financial resources for small, fast and cheap experiments.
And it is not about a rocket science.

Two techniques you should look for a better alarms management
Imagine a situation when compressor, pump or well shuts down. Most of systems generate dozens of low flow, low pressure and so on alarms.
Do they really matter? No. Then, consider using alarms suppression technique to suppress related alarms when equipment is stopped.
You startup equipment and again system generates low pressure, low flow and other alarms as it ramps up.
Use alarm on-delay technique to enable alarms only after equipment is properly started up.
