• Integral part of salt water disposal cost reduction project, developing detailed economics and design recommendations
• Initiated and led failure analysis program for operating group, identifying and documenting all well failures. Conducted root cause analysis and developed mitigation recommendations for repeat failures caused by corrosion (bacteria, CO2), paraffin, scale, and mechanical wear
• Worked closely with field counterpart to improve chemical treatment program efficiency and expand to include entire field in order to mitigate common failures
• Informal mentoring of new engineers

for multi-disciplinary Paradox Basin asset group
• Responsible for production unit under both secondary and tertiary (EOR) recovery (CO2)
• Utilize well surveillance for planning and optimization of pattern water/CO2 injection cycles
• Manage water flood, plan completions and implement pressure-up phase in preparation for CO2 flood in new formation

Operations and production engineer for Powder River Basin asset group.
• Plan and oversee vertical oil well recompletion projects
• Design and coordinate reconfiguration of central production facilities
• Responsible for production monitoring and optimization of rod pumped and plunger lift wells
• Continue development of chemical program for paraffin and corrosion inhibition
• Developed database program for tracking production tests and chemical treatments
• Designed portable three-phase test separation units for use in lease volume allocation
• Assist in the transition to WellView for field reporting and wellbore information

for West Texas asset group working tight, unconventional gas in the West Texas Overthrust as well as conventional oil in the Permian Basin (San Andres).
• Responsible for design and implementation of completions, workovers, and P&A operations including casing selection, wireline operations, acid and fracturing work, coil tubing cleanouts, and remedial cement work
• Responsible for production and maintenance operations on nearly 500 rod pumped wells - operations include chemical treatment for corrosion and bacteria mitigation, identification of workover candidates, and optimization of rod/pump/pumping unit designs.
• Work on special projects including produced water treatment and disposal, proppant studies, and alternative stimulation methods.

in Corporate Engineering and Business Development group
• Maintain ARIES database with cases for all wells and 3P locations in Arkoma Basin asset team
• Responsible for reserve reporting and tracking for asset team
• Work with third party auditors to match reserves for year close
• Assist vice president and division manager in evaluation of acquisitions and divestitures

E&P company operating in the Rockies, Bakken, and Appalachian Basin
• Responsible for day-to-day operations of all production, artificial lift design, and analysis of production performance; design and implementation of well workovers and P&A operations
• Assist in the design of multi-stage completions in directional oil and gas wells
• Developed capital budgeting program and prepared quarterly cash flow forecasts
• Conduct decline curve analysis of all wells and prepare semi-annual reserve reports
• Prepare drilling prognoses with casing/cementing designs and multi-lateral directional plans

While a full time master's degree candidate, performed consulting petroleum engineering work for various firms. Projects included reserve evaluation and extensive five-year field development plan for mixed sand/CBM development. Also performed economic evaluations of royalties and working interests for private mineral owners and investors.
