PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCES

Angola LNG/Chevron Mafumeira Sul Project (Chevron)

Consultant: September, 2012 – 2015: Consultant Senior Drilling Engineer

Drilling Engineer for Mafumeira Sul Project that preformed various duties involving drilling technical specifications, casing design, performance drilling, well design and relief well design using EDM-5000 Landmark Software i.e.; Compass, Well Plan, Stress Check and Well Cat. I also was working with the application of HPWBM accompanied with log responses, torque and drag, hydraulics associated with drilling. I did work with deterministic well costs of upcoming production wells with various drilling applications and testing scenarios for generation of AFE’s. I did work with documents required for the different phases of our CPDEP Roadmap (Chevron Processes). Well Control-WellCAP Drilling, Workover & Completions-Supervisor-Surface Only certified 8/16/2013 (Chevron), Drilling Engineering & Well Planning (ETC) certified 12/13/2013 (Chevron).

Consultant: July, 2011 – September 2012: Consultant Drilling Engineer (Occidental Petroleum Corp) (USA)

Performed planning and programming for extended reach horizontal wells in the Bakken and Three Forks formations in North Dakota for Occidental Petroleum. All projects entail drilling horizontal wells engineered specifically for the North Dakota Bakken and Three Forks play. In addition to various drilling and completion engineering assignments, I was responsible to monitor all the OXY wells for directional control. Due to the complexity of drilling the extended lateral intervals, I monitored the operations at site and engineer correctional well path plans as necessary. Schlumberger's high speed PDM if normally utilized for the first 7,500' of lateral, then after a lower speed motor with high torque output is normally utilized for the remaining lateral interval out to 10,000'.

Consultant: May 2009-July 2011: Consultant Drilling Engineer (Chesapeake)

Performed well planning services utilizing the Landmark spread of software for planning and FEED respective drilling 3-D horizontal wells in the Marcellus Shale play of Pennsylvania. Given that I worked the NE/Marcellus/Cleveland/Lower Huron/Chattanooga plays for 3 years prior, my experience became quite extensive with respect to SOBM and WB mud systems, air drilling, UBD, and Pressure Management Drilling applications. My credits include setting the record for rotary steerable Auto-Trak and 3-D PDM pad horizontal drilling applications for lateral wells in the Marcellus shale of Pennsylvania. Previous to working in Pennsylvania, I was involved in drilling several S configuration wells in the Beaumont, Texas area. Most wells were drilled below the AFE and Time vs Depth curve projections.

In addition to Pennsylvania and Texas, Chesapeake assigned me to projects in Oklahoma to conduct PD-Drive services in ultra-deep horizontal wells with TVD’s greater than 15,000 feet. I have a comprehensive understanding of the PD-Drive rotary steerable system and its applications. I am proficiently experienced with rotary steerable systems such as PDrive / AutoTrak / GeoPilot / EZ-Pilot. I have worked extensively with a wide range of PDM motors. I have extensive experience with bit selection and bit performance optimization respective lithology rock strength and geophysical characteristics.

DD/LWD/MWD Field Engineer 1997-May 2009: Halliburton/Sperry Drilling Services. Houston, TX.
