Education:
Bachelor of Science, Electrical and Communications Engineering 1997-2002
Facultad de Ingeniería Mecánica y Eléctrica en la Universidad Autónoma de N.L
January 1998- December 2002.
Objective:
Career as a Geomechanics, Reservoir Engineer, Production Engineer, or Petrophysicist in a
position that allows me to use my knowledge of the latest analytical techniques to understand
the reservoir behavior, geology, geomechanical and fluid properties to generate reservoir
estimates as well as optimizing drilling procedures to maximize production and minimize
risks and costs.
Professional Interests:
Multi-disciplinary collaboration with geoscientists, and petroleum engineers to solve
subsurface geological, geophysical and reservoir engineering issues by providing a full
description of the subsurface through integration of all borehole data relative to well -log
interpretation; reservoir characterization; lithologic and stratigraphic interpretation and
correlation; distribution of reservoir pressures and formation fluid properties; and seismic
rock properties analysis.
Skills:
-Formation evaluation, including data acquisition; analysis and interpretation of open and
cased hole logs; mud logs; coring procedures and analysis related to standard and specialized
sidewall, rotary sidewall, and conventional cores and techniques; subsurface fluid sampling
and analysis; RFT and drill stem test procedures and analysis; and pore pressure prediction
and analysis.
-Identify hydrocarbon bearing zones with detailed evaluation results delineating net pay
thickness, effective porosities and permeability, fluid saturations, mineralogy, fractures
and/or fracture barriers, and estimation of original oil/gas in-place in order to recommend
testing, perforation, completion, and stimulation options and procedures.
-Integration of borehole derived rock properties with geophysical data, including well ties,
fluid substitution and mechanical properties.
-Familiarity with a variety of software packages, including various log analysis and log
viewing software, Predict and its applications as: 3D, Geo-stress, Wellbore Stability, Presage
Modeling, Safe Seal, Well-Plan, Microsoft Office.
-Skilled in Geomechanics, Petrophysics, pre-drill/real-time/post-drill analysis, and open
hole logging applications.
- Experienced in participating in different projects at once and will commit to achieve the
maximum professional development. I am sociable, responsible and motivated.
-Possesses leadership skills that are useful in stressful situations. With strong experience in
teamwork, I believe myself to be capable of applying my knowledge & skills to satisfy any
challenge.
Work Experience: (Over 5 years experience in the Oil & Gas Industry)
Halliburton-Landmark (Knowledge Systems, Inc.) May 2008 - To present
Geomechanics Engineer
Created pore pressure and wellbore stability analysis services that provide an
innovative approach to help understand the subsurface environment, reduce uncertainty
and optimize wellbore design for ensured safety, success and efficiency.
Geomechanics - Realtime operations center, follow methodologies, expert analysts
and trusted software technologies to produce the industry's most dependable prediction
of pore and fracture pressures. Combining this with advanced geomechanical analysis
results in a robust pre-drill assessment that can be used as the foundation for a
comprehensive well plan and trajectory analysis and risk management.
