Ahmadi, Kuwait

• Steward the Unconventional Heavy Oil & EOR Team Field Development, Budget, and Implementation Plan and KPI’s. Presented to the Senior Management.
• Coordinate/Lead the Heavy Oil Asset Action Plan (long-range plan) preparation and regular updates based on strategic guidelines.
• Facilitate the implementation of KOC Project Gate System for new Field Developments.
• Manage the Task Force Team responsible for monitoring and managing Heavy Oil field development projects through dashboards, and interaction with Senior Managers
• Developed the first HO Portfolio, enabling the implementation of the KOC Corporate Portfolio Management System.
• Analyzed Heavy Oil Cost per barrel of the HO development, identifying alternatives to reduce Opex by up to $10/Bbl.

Calgary, Canada Area

• Prepared the Cold EOR Long-Range Plan and updated the strategy regularly.
• Optimized CO2 Injection supply and demand, resulting in a 20% increase in oil production.
• Improved Cold Solvent Injection budget and project management practices, ensuring projects stayed on time and budget.
• Managed Capital expenditures of Cold EOR and five ongoing New Technology projects.

• Coordinated a multidisciplinary team to identify, design, and execute development plans for 150-300 horizontal wells and two water injection fields.
• Successfully planned and drilled 14 horizontal wells after optimizing the length and number of stages through data analysis, exceeding the optimistic type curve and managing capital and reserves budget forecast up to.
• Implemented simulation models to identify and evaluate development and optimization opportunities.
• Mentored junior and intermediate Reservoir Engineering staff and provided input into reserves assessment.

Calgary, Canada Area

• Created multiyear drilling inventory to assess the development plan. Drilled 70 Cold Horizontal wells, and 130 CHOPS wells. The current production of the first 35 horizontal wells 2,200 Bbl.
• Managed the capital and reserves budget forecast, and execution.
• Maintained and grew the production of the area by developing Husky’s land or by evaluating assets for acquisition.
• Managed partners as well as joint venture agreements.
• Mentor junior and intermediate Reservoir Engineering staff in practical and analytical processes for implementation into their work processes
• Consistently exceeded the oil reserves target at least by 5%, in 2010 by 20% (400 MBbls), through the implementation innovative ideas, which led to change the exploitation strategies such as development of low inflow.

• Main Responsibilities
• Led E&P team in delivering the yearly Reduce Field Operation Benchmark Project.
• Planned, designed, and executed the new Drilling benchmark project. Gaining insight from the data analysis. Learning that the proper cement contracting strategy could lead to a 10% reduction in non-productive time.

• Main Responsabilities
• Manage integrated geosciences and engineering (reservoir, production, drilling) groups. Evaluate complex life-cycle development schemes, and pursue ambitious exploitation strategies based on risk and uncertainty analysis
