ACADEMIC

PROJECTS

Probabilistic Analysis of Horizontal Gas Well Inflow, Probabilistic Design, Spring 2021

• Probability of failure and sensitivity analysis on horizontal gas well inflow using NESSUS software.

• Determined which variables must be treated as random variables and which variables can be kept as deterministic values when determining horizontal gas inflow, ignoring turbulence effects.

Reduced Gas Flaring in Permian Basin, Petroleum Capstone Project, 2017-2018

• Economically feasible plan that collects natural gas that is to be flared in compressor trucks and delivered to gas processing facilities. Natural Gas Pipeline – Alpine High, Natural Gas Engineering, Fall 2017
