Consulting practice that focuses on applying data science to reservoir and exploitation engineering problems. Performed business development to secure contracts, prepared scope of work, performed project work, prepared reports, presented conclusions and collected fees. Recruited and hired staff.Projects:• TAQA: CO2 Storage geomodelling, fluid modelling (NEQSIM), and reservoir simulation in the Wabamun A; Gas Marketing data repository; Well downtime prediction and classification using SCADA data and Neural Net plus deep statistical analysis; Montney development drilling and infrastructure optimization engine ($2.2B Development AFE); Montney GOR/production forecasting using Neural Nets for drilling, completions, reservoir, geologic, and geo-mechanical features; Frac analytics and statistics platform; Data models for Power BI. Artificial intelligence driven models and dashboards productionized as Azure micro-services using Plotly Dash.• PWC: Liquids to gas ratio predictor on the Montney with gradient boost machines. Over 1100 wells and 150 geoscience, drilling, and completions features.• CNRL: Invented streaming data algorithms to detect operational state of level, pressure, and flow transmitters in real time. The algorithms predicted failing transmitters and control loops and helped prevent unsafe conditions for operators, plant upsets, and shutdowns.
