Vishnu Mathialayagan
Integrity Engineer
ExxonMobil
I had the privilege of working with Abishek on tankage maintenance activities during his time as a Maintenance Engineer at ExxonMobil. From the very beginning, Abishek demonstrated a strong commitment to delivering value through his passion, dedication, and eagerness to learn and contribute meaningfully.
He played a key role in improving tankage maintenance performance by proactively identifying issues, proposing solutions, and collaborating effectively across cross-functional teams (Integrity, Business Units, Global Operations and Sustainability). Abishek is not one to settle for the status quo — he consistently challenged conventional approaches and sought opportunities to optimize work processes.
Despite joining the organization as a campus hire, Abishek made significant contributions within a short span of two years.
What truly sets Abishek apart are his interpersonal skills and humility. He is approachable, supportive, and always willing to share his knowledge — qualities that made him a highly valued team member.
Abishek is a driven and dependable professional who brings both technical expertise and a collaborative spirit to any team. He would be a tremendous asset to any organization, and I have no doubt he will continue to excel in his career.

Planning & Scheduling Engineer
British Petroleum
I’ve been working with Abishek on a storage tank planning project, and it’s been a really great experience. He’s my main point of contact from the client side, and he’s handled things with great maturity and ownership.
What impressed me most is how quickly he catch things up. He was able to move tank planning workflow almost on his own, even though it was in a very early stage and there were quite a few challenges. Still, he stayed focused and kept things moving forward.
His communication and problem-solving skills really stand out, and he always keeps customer satisfaction in focus.
I’m confident that with his drive and skills, Abishek will continue to excel in any role or project he takes on. Highly recommended!

Purnima Mandal
Reliability Engineer
ExxonMobil
I had the pleasure of working with Abishek on Gas-to-Energy project for Guyana while working at Exxonmobil that required strong coordination, innovative thinking, and resilience under pressure. The project had tight timeline and challenges. From the very beginning, he brought a high level of professionalism and dedication to the table. We collaborated closely throughout the lifecycle of the project—from planning and execution to overcoming challenges and finally achieving a successful outcome. Abishek was to support end-to-end Stewardship and CMMS build for the project.
Abishek’s ability to stay calm and solution-focused when things didn’t go as planned. His analytical approach and positive attitude helped steer the team through every hurdle, whether it was tight deadlines, shifting priorities, or technical constraints, Abishek always found a way to adapt and contribute meaningfully. He is an excellent communicator, and someone I’d gladly partner with again in the future.
I recommend Abishek to any team looking for someone who is reliable, driven, and collaborative.

Indraneel Mitra
Maintenance Systems Engineer
ExxonMobil
I have had the pleasure of working with Abishek Girish for one year at ExxonMobil Services and Technology Pvt. Ltd., Bengaluru Tech. Center, where we collaborated closely in the Maintenance department. We specifically worked together on a high-impact Guyana project, where Abishek took on the role of overall execution coordinator—deftly handling interactions with various cross-functional teams, including mine.
Despite his relatively short tenure, Abishek demonstrated exceptional managerial skills, a deep sense of ownership, and a natural ability to lead. His energy is infectious, and he constantly brings positivity and proactiveness into every discussion. What stood out the most was his openness to feedback, ability to ask thoughtful questions on the fly, and his readiness to support the team wherever required.
Working alongside Abishek has been a learning experience in itself. His confidence, clarity, and commitment to excellence never made it feel like he was just starting out. He has all the qualities of a leader in the making, and I’m confident that he will continue to drive success in any project he takes on.

I had the pleasure of studying with Abishek at PSG Tech. On top of all the exemplary qualities that he possesses, he struck me as a gentleman above all. Apart from just going through the exams, he kept on using his free time to participate in hackathons, publish papers, and get involved in department associations. He always had the drive to push himself harder and get exposed to new experiences.
During the last year of our education, I got an opportunity to collaborate with Abishek on our final year project and a few other co-curricular competitions. In each of the projects, he always took the lead and drove the team in attaining the goal. In each of the tasks he performed, he never failed to deliver it with the utmost perfection, even in places where it was not needed. A great example of this would be in the flagship series of events conducted for the first time by the Association of Mechanical Engineering. With his leadership, the event turned out to be one notch better.
One thing I noticed with the kind of projects or problems he undertook was that he focused on helping the people with difficulties or making the world a better place. In spite of his busy schedule, he always took some time to help his classmates in his capacity.
