Prudhoe Bay, AK

• Participated in onsite planning, oversight, and review of well intervention operations on the North Slope (including coiled tubing, slickline, e-line, stimulations/fullbore pumping, and well integrity)
• Researched and generated well intervention procedures with guidance from Well Design Engineer while working in Anchorage office
• Used programming skills to develop a web-based program to calculate burst ratings for atypical casing sizes found on the North Slope
• Developed Excel-based gradient calculation tool to be used by field operators and well integrity engineers to estimate depth of tubing leaks in high-rate gas injection wells based on annulus pressure bleed/buildup.
