TEAM LEADER FOR GAS AGGRESSIVE STRATEGY PROGRAM – 2021-2022

  • Key Responsibilities:
    • Planning and executing special wells with the purpose of evaluating and testing new technologies.
    • Maximizing reservoir contact and optimizing stimulation activities.
    • Maximizing productivity and optimizing costs for both conventional drilling wells and underbalanced coil tubing drilling wells.

RESERVOIR MANAGEMENT TEAM LEADER

Provided leadership and direction for a technical team assessing and developing reserves from the Ghawar field, oversaw the development and planning, and represented the team during Integrated Reservoir Studies. Lead Auditor for Operational Excellence Program. Responsible for Reservoir Surveillance Program.

Key Accomplishments:

  • Managed programs to reduce locked potential for the field and contributed to developing and maintaining the business plan. Managed to optimize the Development Drilling activities and rig-less operations.
  • Led the long-term integrated reservoir studies for field development, creating reserves estimation, numerical simulation models, well testing interpretation, pressure transient analysis, decline curve analysis, material balance studies, production forecasting, and PVT analysis.
  • Created and implemented well-stimulation programs that included proppant fracturing and acid stimulation for both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. Managed open-hole and cased-hole multi-stage fracturing operations.
  • Managed the drilling and workover follow-up operations for horizontal, deviated, and multilateral wells, establishing a strategy for reentry processes and reducing locked potential for sites.
  • Developed guidelines for the team, mentoring, and evaluating performances to ensure accuracy.
  • Collaborated with the Stimulation Team to evaluate new technology for reservoir stimulation.
  • Conducted and led Reservoir Surveillance Programs including pressure transient analysis, rate transient analysis, Separator Tests, SBHPs, PLTs, MDTs, WFLs, to evaluate the performance at the well level and to provide dynamic reservoir data for integrated reservoir studies.
  • Managed a program to reduce the development cost for the unit in the period.
  • Served as a Focal Point to interact with Exploration teams and Unconventional Resources teams for planning and executing new wells.
