Responsible for carrying out the assembly of Bottom Hole Assemblies tools and Running into the hole to control the solids and gas production to improve the artificial lift systems run life and efficiency : as well as the performance of Down Hole chemical treatments. Additionally, tool inspections are carried out after pulling the tools in the wells has been completed.

Yopal, Casanare, Colombia

In charge of the executive, technical and administrative management of the productive oil and gas fields, in the Alcaraván A, Alcaraván B, Rio Verde and Llanos 23 blocks, following CEDCO guidelines, ensuring compliance with the objectives and production goals, cost, safety management and HSE. Construction and control of the operating expenses and investments budget in the production blocks, establishing the necessary controls to ensure compliance and optimize resources.◎ Increased the injectivity index of the Tilodirán Well 06 managing to inject an additional 10,000 BWPD (barrels of water per day) which allowed to increase production by 400 BOPD (barrels of oil per day), I also managed to reduce the cost of water treatment by US $ 70,000 / Month. For this reason, the intervention of the well was not necessary and it generated savings of $USD 1.5 MM.◎ Recovered the production of 3 wells (Tilodirán 11, 07 and Canacabaré 09) for a total of 450 BOPD, through various processes based upon an adequate interpretation and analysis of the variables. The intervention of these wells was also avoided, reducing costs by $USD 4 MM

Casanare, Colombia

In charge for planning, directing and supervising the actions in the fields (productive blocks of oil and gas) - Blocks of C & C, Casimena, Casanare and Mapache, ensuring compliance with the objectives and goals of production, cost, safety management and HSE. I structured and controled the operating Budget, expenses and investments. The production of these blocks as a whole, during my management, had a maximum peak of 24,000 BOPD, and 200,000 BWPD with crude from 9° to 33° API.Achievements: ◎ Reduced the operation and treating wastewater cost, reallocating roles and responsibilities to achieve greater operational efficiency; I also unified the water management contract with the O&M contract, which allowed to reduce operating costs by $USD 1 MM / year, achieving reliability in the system.◎ Changed the operating philosophy of the Zopilote, Bastidas and Carrizales stations, achieving an investment cost reduction of $USD 2.5 MM in purchase of injection pumps and $USD 1 MM / year in operating costs.◎ Implemented the use of dynamic measurement (Coriolis) for the unification of fields, achieving the RIE (Resolution of Start of Exploitation) for 10 production fields that were with closure notice. Additionally, the ANH implemented the resolution of dynamic measurement at the national level in the unification of oil field production. This exercise was used as a role model.
