Production, reserves and economic modeling, GIS mapping, and data for private operator in Powder River and Green River basins.

Contract Aries support for Powder River focused reservoir engineering team

Aries and GIS for land and ops teams following Powder River Basin acquisition from SME

Built and managed large ARIES database of non-operated interests, including over 3000 producing wells, and over 7,000 total locations. Updated production and PDP forecasts. Built and updated type curves for undeveloped locations, and regularly managed various complex ownership scenarios.Worked extensively with 3rd party reserve auditors (Cawley, Gillespie and Associates, Ryder Scott) to maximize reserves for semi-annual, certified reserve reports that impact company financing. Reported directly to VP of Engineering.Collaborated with land, accounting, and engineering teams on detailed presentations to lenders and board of directors.Increased undeveloped reserves by negotiating for more proven locations and higher EURE type projections based on study of updated completion techniques, tighter drill spacing, and escalation of lease-line drilling. Worked with private equity backers to evaluate multiple merger and aquisition opportunites in down market by building individual Aries databases using data rooms and public data.Maintained large Spotfire database of Williston basin activity to monitor production by formation and operator in order to stay current on updated completions and summarize competitor activity in board presentations
