      Reservoir engineer

       Monitored over 300 wells with diverse completions (Multilateral, Horizontal, GP, HF) using OFM and SEEQ. Automated performance dashboards to streamline surveillance and conducted diagnostic assessments to evaluate reservoir performance. Identified wells suitable for intervention with minimal OPEX.  Performed analytical methodologies, encompassing Material Balance, Decline Curve Analysis (Arps, SEPD, PLE), Rate Transient Analysis (Flowing Material Balance), and Type Well Analysis (probabilistic, arithmetic, and geometric), to validate hydrocarbons in place and assess EUR at both well and field scales.  Conducted detailed analytical and numerical Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA) and Rate Transient Analysis (RTA) studies, including Pressure Build-Up, Flow-After-Flow, Agarwal-Gardner, and Blasingame TCs, to accurately determine reservoir and completion properties such as flow capacity, skin factor, and reservoir boundaries in complex reservoir environments. These insights were integral to initializing reservoir models and strategic planning for infill well placements.  Developed single-well and sectoral reservoir models tailored for multilateral wells, incorporating sensitivity analyses on key parameters such as lateral length, inter-lateral angles, and varying operational conditions to optimize well design. The project was aimed at unlocking ~ 0.5 TCF of gas from a low-permeability reservoir.  Supplementary Work: Assessment of designed well trajectory, BHA Design, Torque, Drag, and Hydraulics Simulation, preparation of drilling timelines and AFE, cost tracking of well operations, tracking rig KPI, etc.  Assisting in ESG goals analysis by suggesting suitable measures of reducing worksite Emissions (Scope 1 and 2), etc. Show less
