JOY DRIVE MIDLAND, (Partner of Lario Oil and Gas) Houston, TX 2017 – 2023

Senior Production Engineer

Responsible for managing full field development of properties in the Midland Basin, managing budgets, completions design, production forecasting, as well as evaluating engineering designs.

Managed development project from 7 initial wells to 144 wells over 7 years with an annual budget of $80 million.

Collaborated with a team in the design of completion strategies for the Wolfcamp A, B, D, and Lower Spraberry formations in the Midland Basin, ensuring optimal reservoir stimulation and hydrocarbon recovery.

Performed extensive post job analysis on stimulation effectiveness. Optimized treatment rates, cluster spacing, stage spacing and determined more accurate reservoir property values for future simulations.

Prepared accurate monthly forecasts for Lease Operating Expenses (LOE) and capital expenditures, facilitating effective financial planning and budget management.

Conducted thorough field audits to ensure safe and cost-efficient production operations, maintaining compliance with industry regulations and implementing necessary improvements.

Presented operational activities, achievements, and key performance indicators in all quarterly board meetings, effectively communicating progress, addressing challenges, and aligning with organizational goals.
