Proving consultancy on waterflood - development of new waterflood fields and optimisation of fields currently produced under waterflood. Having previously held a global waterflood role for the last 15 years in Shell I have built an unrivalled span of experience in understanding what makes waterfloods tick. Working on a fly in-fly out basis I have been able to quickly identify improvement scope for both new waterflood developments and as well as existing assets. Furthermore that experience spans all settings found in our industry - deepwater, shallow offshore, land, carbonate and sandstone environments, tight reservoirs, heavy oils etc. The experience also spans a wide range of the disciplinary inputs into waterfloods: Well and Reservoir ManagementFlood design optimisationInjection management and design (matrix/fractured injection)Flood conformance managementProduction chemistry controls (scaling, souring, clay swelling)Waterflood operationsWell designBenchmarkingetc. My breadth of waterflood experience is also useful for staff training. Able to provide integrated waterflood training - 5 days (spans all disciplinary inputs), management training, operations training.As a consultant I can steer teams on:Initial waterflood screeningField development planningWaterflood operation optimisation - improvement plansI am able to steer teams through a structured review process to manage and optimise future work

Reveiwed in excess of 100 fields as part of the role.Responsible for optimization of current operating assets, assets moving through the development funnel to operation, and also taking a role in new business development to identify waterflood acquisitions. The breadth of the portfolio means that I have experience of waterflood in all settings:Sandstones, carbonatesHeavy oilDeepwater, land, shallow offshore, arcticAble to quickly define critical success factors for projects and assets and thus able to provide steer, efficiently and quickly.Responsible for management of Shell waterflood training material:Built Shell waterflood training courseCompiled Shell waterflood manual
