Jan 2018- Sep 2020: Sr. reservoir engineer Sonatrach-PVEP-PTTEP SBS Team
As part of subsurface team, we manage a new developed oil field Bir Seba Algeria which will be under water injection and gas lift to maintain reservoir pressure, in addition to well impairment solutions dealing with wax issues, asphalting and salts on daily basis, in addition to:
-FDP phase-2 elaboration and update the (drilling 20 wells to increase production, implementing water injection)
-Perform production forecast and profiles and scenarios using Petrel-RE
-PTA interpretation, PLT using Kappa sapphire and Emeraude, Hydraulic Fracturing design and optimization Stim plan design, Petrel-Re production forecast
Jan 2017- Jan 2018: GTFT Sr. reservoir engineer Sonatrach-Repsol-Total SBS Team
As part of subsurface team, we manage Condensate gas cap mature field, preparing Subsurface committee meetings, reservoir monitoring to deal with all well impairment issues related to water breakthrough and condensate banking, velocity string was one of the solutions practiced for water unloading in the GTFT filed, reservoir surveillance and monitoring for material balance.
Nov 2009 to Jan 2017: Sr. Petroleum/ RE engineer JVGAS Sonatrach- Bp-Statoil Company
GAS project consists of three fields in Devonian reservoir and carboniferous, four other fields will come sooner in the Devonian reservoir named southern fields. My task in the project:
A single point contact between the field operations and the subsurface team, managing the
petroleum activities, responsible of surveillance plan execution to reach high performance in respect to gas nominations, production optimization, well constraints identification and remedial programming: Clean up, water loading issues, velocity string, water shut off, gas well deliquification
Hydraulic Fracturing tight gas reservoir design using Stimplan simulator
Prepare the most technical & economic scenario as basement of the reference case.
Generating VLP tables vertical wells using Prosper and surface network (GAP) to use in the
Built a multi-tank material balance model for different oil fields for the pre-screening study.
Well test interpretation-using PIE software, Kappa Engineering Sapphire.
Production forecast to meet daily gas commercial nominations
CO2 Monitoring project
Managing the CO2 monitoring in Krechba field, supervise the operations performed by international companies and researchers.
planning, contracts and execution every 1 to 2 years depending on the monitoring itself.
Gas sampling Q&A, CO2 injectors surveillance, Aquifer monitoring
Reporting and Contract renew, campaign plan and supervision to monitor the CO2 probable seepage, management of Operations and technical meeting with experts and organism in the area of CO2 monitoring
March 2002 – Nov 2009 Sonatrach E&P Junior to Senior Reservoir Engineer (Algeria)
As part of the team of production engineering division EP, we manage mature oil fields In Amenas Algeria under water injection to maintain reservoir pressure, we deal on daily basis on well impairment solutions. In general:
lead P&A abandonment Projects in In Amenas brown field and took responsibility of the Tableau de bord of production account, I manage a team of 10 persons, I was the interim of the technical puits chef service for 02 years successively
Achieve a cost-effective solution to improve production from brown fields by well performance optimization to reverse decline production from tight oil wells, work over program optimization: Cement squeeze, water shut off, well impairment remedial, casing deterioration, well re-completion and gas lift re design
Implement the water injection management strategy, mid and long-term development schemes of the reservoir to maximize oil recovery, enhance production by reservoir stimulation (Matrix treatment Acidizing), planning and prioritization & sustaining continuous work over Rig strategy
Coaching fresh engineers and nationals Algerian from universities and institution
