Authors 

Oyekan, S. O. - Presenter, Prafis Energy Solutions
Several factors can induce a worker to opt to retire from the daily routine and grind of specific work assignments and requirements. Some could be health factors, family obligations, travels and fun, and the desire to impact several companies and professional workers beyond the confines of the current work sphere.

This presentation may be of interest to those who are in "retirement”, to those who are contemplating “retirement”, and to those who wish to continue producing and impacting companies, and others during retirement. I will be sharing with you the joys and benefits that can be derived from running a technical, engineering and optimization consultancy services.

In founding and working for Prafis Energy Solutions, I have had the time to meet family obligations. It has given me the time to re-energize my growth as I continue on my spiritual journey. "Retirement" has enabled me to work on a number of interesting projects, manage health care challenges, and welcome the recent increase in the number of my grandsons from 3 to 5. The usual travels have been done, and more recently, my book with the title of Catalytic Naphtha Reforming Process was published in 2018 by CRC Press of the Taylor Francis group.
