I worked with allocations for clients who had offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. The platforms and clients included Nakika (BP), Pompano (Stone Energy), and Gulfstar One (Williams). I monitored and reviewed daily data to ensure correct allocation procedures. I upgraded the Gulfstar One allocation workbook and procedure to account for current operations. I also updated its Measurement and Allocation agreement, modifying equations and making terminology more clear. For all workbooks… Show more I worked with allocations for clients who had offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. The platforms and clients included Nakika (BP), Pompano (Stone Energy), and Gulfstar One (Williams). I monitored and reviewed daily data to ensure correct allocation procedures. I upgraded the Gulfstar One allocation workbook and procedure to account for current operations. I also updated its Measurement and Allocation agreement, modifying equations and making terminology more clear. For all workbooks, I used VBA to create routines to automate routine procedures,as well as improving existing routines. While at SGS, I learned the basic operations of offshore platforms, and I worked with clients regularly. I was laid off in March 2016 because the continued downturn in the upstream oil and gas industry forced personnel cuts. Show less

I worked with the hydraulic fracturing field operations at numerous sites in the Permian Basin, mostly West Texas. On site, I learned the operations of specialized stimulation equipment, including blenders, hydration units, sand additive units, and the running of the entire operation inside the treatment monitoring vehicle. Inside the treatment operating vehicle, I would assist the operation by providing technical analysis to the company representative on site. At the office, I learned how… Show more I worked with the hydraulic fracturing field operations at numerous sites in the Permian Basin, mostly West Texas.

Inside the treatment operating vehicle, I would assist the operation by providing technical analysis to the company representative on site. At the office, I learned how to prepare technical job proposals and post job reports using company software.Training at Baker Hughes included an intensive stimulation academy where I learned hydraulic fracturing from an engineering perspective as well as other professional development.

Galena Park, Tx

As an intern at Texmark, I was exposed to a wide variety of operations at a chemical plant. I created daily production reports using mass balances and helped interpret daily plant operating charts. I helped ensure process safety while monitoring these charts. Using my knowledge of chemical kinetics, I investigated a possible safety hazard from distillation byproducts. I worked with PROVISION II software to model a distillation tower under acquisition, and propose different processes through… Show more As an intern at Texmark, I was exposed to a wide variety of operations at a chemical plant.

Using my knowledge of chemical kinetics, I investigated a possible safety hazard from distillation byproducts. I worked with PROVISION II software to model a distillation tower under acquisition, and propose different processes through it. I simulated potential process feeds through existing equipment and made recommendations. At the conclusion of the summer, I presented my projects to the company president and management. Show less

Amherst, Ma

I investigated the renewable biopolymers pectin and chitosan. I determined their molecular weights by measuring their viscosities with a viscometer. I analyzed the data using linear regression in MS Excel to determine the technical information. I presented my results to faculty and staff at an end of the summer poster session.

Portsmouth, Va

I assisted with the drafting and review process of engineering drawings for US Navy ships. I boarded the ships with engineers to help perform as built checks and help determine how to upgrade electrical systems. I utilized AUTOCAD to make new engineering drawings and edit existing drawings for US Navy ship systems.
