• Collaborated with BP on an industry-based project as required by the Robert Gordon University Master’s curriculum.
• Partnered and communicated with a wide range of BP technical teams, including Wells, Drilling, Well Intervention, and Production.
• Focused on reducing carbon intensity for artificial lift systems in alignment with the project scope, as well as comparing carbon intensity for gas lift and electric submersible pump artificial lift systems in the.
• Artificial lift modelled using the PETEX software suite. Prosper, MBAL and GAP used in conjunction to conduct production predictions for carbon intensity estimations.
• Life Cycle Analysis software (GaBi) used to conduct LCA investigation in accordance with ISO 14040 procedure.

• The Reservoir Engineering department was my second placement, I was initially sent into the field to work with operations before returning to the office to work closely under another experienced Reservoir Engineer.
• Worked with operators in the field, this involved daily rounds/taking readings, operating Gemoco wax cutters, flowing wells, opening/closing valves, receiving pipeline pigs and various other tasks.
• Interpretation of data sets (e.g. PVT, Well Tests, Wireline, PLT etc.) and translation to well schematic diagrams.
• Placed under experienced Reservoir Engineer (in main office), assisted with reservoir studies and validated results from different software simulations.o Conducted Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA) on historical well.

• The Facilities Engineering role was the first placement I did, this role was predominately team based and involved working on various surface projects across the Greymouth Petroleum assets.
• Team based facilities project work, as well as managing smaller (MOC/Plant Change Request) projects over the entire project lifecycle including execution and closeout.
• Investigated and troubleshooted “solids build up” issues within the glycol (MEG) regeneration system (common industry problem) at the Kaimiro Production Station, acted on the findings of this investigation to mitigate.
• Became proficient with several different software applications including the Microsoft Office suite (including Word, Excel and Project) and the VMGsim process simulator (both statics and dynamics).
