Personal Statement

I am a post graduate Petroleum Engineer, with a background in Automotive

and Power Engineering. I am looking for an opportunity for professional

growth in the petroleum industry, contribute towards solving the existing

challenges and meet multiple experts working in this industry.

Education Background

2012-2013 Heriot Watt University, Msc. Petroleum Engineering

Modules include:

. Reservoir Engineering

. Drilling Engineering

. Formation Evaluation

. Petroleum Geoscience

. Production Technology

. Reservoir Simulation

. Petroleum Economics

. Well test Analysis

As a design group project, my team came up with a Field Development Plan

and Environmental Statement for an oil field in the UK. I was involved in

the Reservoir Engineering section, where I carried out Well test analysis,

analysed DST, PVT, SCAL and relative permeability data. I also generated a

field decommissioning plan which greatly developed my understanding of real

life field work and safety regulations.

My final year thesis involved using CMG software to simulate miscible CO2

injection in a high resolution 3D Carbonate outcrop analogue to optimise

production. I acquired an understanding on generating reliable production

forecasts with simulation software, complexities of carbonate reservoirs

and tertiary methods of improving production among others.

2003-2007 Kyambogo University, BEng. Automotive and Power Engineering,

Some of the core modules included:

. Production Technology

. Materials science

. Mechanics of materials

. Mechanics of fluids

. Hydraulic power systems

. Mechanics of machines

. Hoisting and handling equipment

. Instrumentation and control

. Project Management

. Mechanical Engineering and Design

. Engineering mathematics

. Communication skills and humanities

I designed a computerised fleet maintenance management program using C++,

for my final year project. I gained knowledge and skills on how to write

C++ programs as a way of improving inventory handling, acquisition and

maintenance schedule procedures in a mechanical workshop.
