My position in the company had three main purposes, compliance with the contract by the two parties, monitoring the incidences of the planned activities to the expected profitability of the project, exploring different scenarios and recommending, to high Management, the most lucrative path while maintaining within budget, and finally, Protecting company’s interests. I proficiently applied negotiation techniques to prevent the intended NOP's inherence in operations and firmly utilized contract clauses from blocking deviations that could have harmed the company's interests. Likewise, we applied the necessary pressure to our only supplier (Halliburton) to protect the profitability of the project and the interests of the NOP, when necessary.Key Accomplishments:• Saved the company US $14,000,000 by negotiating-rejecting inherited liabilities• Negotiated a US $1,300,000 operational contract before "officially" taking over the field's activities, which aided significantly in the project's finances.
