Sep 2016 - Nov 2020
• Executed production optimization and engineering duties, with data analytics tasks related to trending production data and economic modeling, as the sole engineer of a $30M oil & gas exploration company • Managed the production of over 130 wells through the daily analysis of graph and table production visualizations from data hosted both on-premises and in the cloud, resulting in targeted optimization efforts and ease of reporting to management • Constructed a database to house project budgets and real-time expenditures, allowing for percent variances and overspending to immediately be seen, which saved time for the finance department and management • Created a KPI table to track the drilling and wellsite construction performance of new Alabama wells, which resulted in insight into how activities could be adjusted to match or exceed the current pacesetting well • Introduced an Excel-based economic model, at $0 cost to the company, that incorporated key well economic parameters to produce a visual that was easily understood by management and could be used to assess other wells • Evaluated net present value graph forecasts - created by third-party engineering firms - of over 100 wells for an annual bank report update and always identified at least 5-10 wells with incorrect low valuations, which led to at least $250k in value additions Show less
