PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

1991 to Present Senior Consultant, Reservoir Engineering

International Reservoir Technologies, Inc., Lakewood,

Colorado

Secondment to BP Kuwait and Kuwait Oil Company, working in KOC's North

Kuwait Group. I moved with my family to Kuwait for three years, from

October, 2002 through October, 2005.

Engineer-in-charge for Sabriyah Upper Burgan sandstone reservoir, North

Kuwait - Late 2002 through early 2003.

. 1+ BSTBO reservoir in the massive Sabriyah Field in North Kuwait.

. Multiple channel sands reservoir under primary depletion, with plans to

initiate waterflooding.

. Supervised a reservoir team that included a KOC reservoir engineer,

KOC production engineer, and a contract development geologist.

. Defined near- and medium-term development drilling plans and

schedules, workovers, and surveillance, all to maintain production

levels for centralized production facilities.

Engineer-in-charge for Sabriyah Mauddud carbonate reservoir, North Kuwait

- Mid 2003 through late 2005.

. Multi-billion barrel "super giant" depletion drive, carbonate reservoir

undergoing waterflood, 18-26 API oil.

. Supervised a reservoir team that included a senior BP

reservoir/production engineer, a KOC senior production engineer, two

young KOC engineers, a KOC geologist, and a BP senior geologist.

. Mentored a number of other young KOC engineers during my assignment

. Developed ongoing reservoir management plan, including development

drilling, well workovers, well surveillance and pattern waterflood

management.

. Responsible for day to day operations decisions and production rate

maintenance.

. Planned and monitored in real time horizontal well drilling activities

with team geoscientists.

Participating Engineer, BP North Kuwait Project evaluation

. Comprehensive analysis of reserves and production potential of the

North Kuwait reservoirs that were potentially up for bid from Kuwait

Oil Company for operatorship.

. Participated in rate forecasting, uncertainty analysis, economic

analysis, drilling and development plan optimizations, artificial lift

method investigations, and completion optimizations planning.

Completed a number of multi-discipline, full field simulation studies in

19 years as a reservoir simulation engineer at IRT, including;

. Yarigui-Cantagallo, Middle Magdelena Basin, Colombia - Ecopetrol

20 API oil, structurally complex reservoir, slated for waterflood

. Nakika Fourier, deepwater Gulf of Mexico - BP

Series of stacked reservoirs, some volatile oil, some retrograde

condensate; model used for continuing development

. North Kuwait Artificial Lift Study - BP Kuwait

Comprehensive, multi-reservoir comparative study to evaluate the

relative merits of a number of artificial lift methods for the

Sabriyah and Raudhatain fields in North Kuwait. NODAL analysis,

reservoir simulations, economic evaluations, pressure transient

analyses were all components of this study.

. Lamar Block VI, VLE305, Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela - PDVSA

Structurally complex, volatile oil reservoirs.

. Uquo and Stubb Creek Fields, Nigeria - Prudence Petroleum

Evaluation of two small reservoirs located onshore in the Eastern

Niger Delta.

. Austin Creek Field, Wind River Basin, Wyoming - Nance Petroleum

Compositional simulation study of the Austin Creek Field, studying

impacts of gas cycling, and potential for CO2 injection.

. East Bay, South Pass, Block 27, Gulf of Mexico - Ocean Energy

Reservoir study of Gulf Coast waterflood to optimize injection and

recommend infill locations.

. SW Canyon City, Oklahoma - UMC

Simulation model built to investigate infill opportunities in a deep,

tight gas reservoir

. S. Lucien Field, Oklahoma - UMC

Mature field waterflood candidate evaluation using a reservoir

simulation model

1989 to 1991 Senior Software Engineer

Scientific Software-Intercomp, Inc., Denver, Colorado

Responsible for enhancement and new feature development of an interactive

reservoir simulation input and results processing system, running on a

broad range of large computers, minicomputers and UNIX workstations.

1985 to 1989 Customer Service Manager

Pincock, Allen & Holt, Inc., Lakewood, Colorado

Responsible for complete technical support, enhancement, and development of

an integrated geologic and ore deposit modeling software package marketed

to the mining industry. Served as a technical consultant on many open pit

mining projects, both domestically and internationally.
