Internships and Experience
Hess:
Graduate Geosciences Intern: May 2012-August 2012
- Determined the exploration upside potential for satellite prospects to Situche Central, Block 64, Peru
- Utilized Petrel and GeoX software to model subsurface structure and stochastically estimate in-place volumes
- Established the geologic chance of success (POSg) on the basis of local data and regional analogues
- Integrated exploration upside production profile forecasts with planned facilities design to assess feasibility for future development phases
- Collaborated with geophysicists, reservoir engineers, and conceptual facilities engineers
- Documented upside analysis for inclusion in Situche Central Field Development Plan (FDP)
DeGolyer and MacNaughton:
Graduate Geology Intern: May 2011 - August 2011
- Worked with a team of geologists and engineers to update a geocellular model of the Hassi Messaoud Field under an ongoing contract with the national Algerian petroleum company, SONATRACH
- Used Schlumberger’s Petrel Software to estimate and map fault displacement and build a workflow to automate the process of updating the structure of the Hassi Messaoud geocellular model
- Compiled a comprehensive well database for geocellular model update purposes on the Hassi Messaoud Field
Undergraduate Geology Intern: June 2010 - August 2010
- Compiled global reservoir parameters into an accessible database for company-wide use
- Ran statistical analysis based on reservoir parameters from well log data, calculated chance of geologic success
- Utilized Kingdom’s SMT software to identify and map minor fault planes in a 3D seismic project
