Design development department: worked in a team responsible for 7+ fields in Wyoming and Montana. Created geologic and simulation models of potential development areas, created multiple development strategies, evaluated existing assets, generated forecasts, and performed economic analysis. This work was brought in to an integrated economic model to determine optimized development plans which accounted for facilities constraints, regional CO2 supply parameters, minimized risk, and accounted for uncertainty. We successfully carried out and stewarded development of the Grieve field (~35 wells) and Bell Creek phase 5/6 (65+ wells) in a low oil price environment.Reservoir management department: worked in a team overseeing the Bell Creek field (300+ MMBO OOIP). Monitored and optimized tertiary CO2 WAG flood performance identifying opportunities to pursue additional recovery, worked closely with geologist and geophysics team to tie performance to subsurface features, compartmentalization, and petrophysical properties. Built reserves economic cases, carried out the budget process, defended reserves when needed. Identified 50+ vertical conformance workover candidates. Designed and performed a field surveillance program to diagnose field performance issues.
