Upstream A&D Reservoir Engineer

Reservoir Engineer

• Managed Americo’s flagship asset, a waterflood project in Mitchell Co, TX producing 250 bopd• Directed the daily operations of a Gulf Coast Frio field in Victoria Co, TX producing 130 bopd• Supervised several additional small project areas across W. TX and N.M. producing 50 bopd total• Responsible for day to day operations in approximately 50% of Americo’s operated assets• Tracked well performance and worked closely with field personnel on day-to-day operations and maintenance procedures• Established historical production data, forecasted performance and reserve estimates• Conducted reservoir & waterflood study to develop a program to improve performance and efficiency in the Mitchell Co. property• Identified and justified candidates for work-over, re-entry or stimulation work• Prepared AFEs for recommended work and presented directly to senior management• Carried out a package of re-frac stimulations that increased that field’s production by 20%• Assisted in the asset evaluation on multiple HBP properties to pinpoint potential drilling locations and establish the risked reserves and project economics for these drilling prospects

• Participated in hydraulic fracture stimulation designs.• Developed procedures and prepared reports for well completions and workovers.• Provided onsite technical supervision at completion and multistage fracturing operations. • Utilized RodStar to design artificial lift systems.• Compiled data and prepared facility emissions estimates for EPA reporting requirements.

• De-saturate reservoir samples with oil or air.• Recorded electrical properties of reservoir rocks at different conditions.• Determined irreducible water saturation on samples.• Determined the cementation and saturation exponent in Archie’s Equation (m,n).• Calculated for the formation factor in Archie’s Equation (F).• Generated Capillary Pressure (Pc) Curves.• Organized all data and results into presentable format for clients.

• Used silica nanoparticles to generate stable oil in brine emulsions• Conducted core flood experiments with toluene in water emulsions• Conducted emulsion droplet size analysis• Performed an extensive study on emulsion phase behavior• Researched the possible application of nano technology in the oil industry
