SUMMARYI am a Reservoir Engineer at Southwestern Energy with 3 1/2 years of experience in the petroleumindustry that includes a two year rotation through four major disciplines in drilling, completions,production, and reservoir. After my training, I was a reservoir engineer in the Fayetteville Shale for a yearbefore moving to the Brown Dense exploration group as a technical reservoir engineer.
EXPERIENCEMay 2008 – Present Southwestern Energy Houston, TX
Reservoir Engineer (June13-Present)-Brown Dense Reservoir Engineer Significant numerical modeling using Eclipse to understand drainage area and reservoir deliverability. Analyzed PVT properties of condensate wells to understand the relationship between reservoir fluids
and well performance. Incorporated this learning within reservoir modeling to verify fully. Well diagnostics including RTA, pressure build up and drawdown test using analytical models. Analyzed well deliverability by creating drawdown vs. cumulative reservoir volume relationships. Prepared 2014 budget of 115 $MM in capital for our exploration/appraisal, and delineation program.
Worked with senior management on development strategy and presented metrics accordingly.Reservoir Engineer (June12-June13) – Fayetteville Shale Reservoir Engineer
Planed and developed ~100 wells incorporating offset analysis, production forecasts, and reserves. Reservoir studies using DFIT’s, RTA, Well Testing, Pilot Hole Log analysis and ARIES sensitivities. Update reserves (using ARIES) quarterly and perform post analysis PDP’s. Prepared the 2013 budget for upper management. Ranking projects while ensuring optimal field
development based on capital, reserves, production and PVI.New Hire Rotation (June10-June12) - 6 month rotations in each of the following disciplines:
Fayetteville ShaleDrilling Learned the daily operations and tasks required to run a multi-rig drilling program. Worked on both
air rigs and closed system mud rigs (singles, doubles and triples). Developed horizontal well drillprograms and all associated planning involved.
Completions Observed workover rigs, hydraulic frac jobs, and coiled tubing. Learned Daily roles/responsibilities of
field personnel to run a 24 hour frac operation. Analyzed FET tests to better understand reservoir characteristics (permeability, fracture length and
height) and how they can be used to better optimize unconventional hydraulic fractures.Marcellus ShaleReservoir Supported in the ~265 MM$ 2011 budget process including capital allocation, reserve estimates and
future production forecasts. Presented the proposed budget to upper management for approval. Worked with ARIES economic and planning software along with Fekete’s RTA and VirtuWell.Production Coordinated well hookups during the start up of a new field with minimal infrastructure. Created nodal analysis on wells to optimize production while maintaining reservoir integrity. Optimized wellhead and downhole tools used during artificial lift.
InternshipsDrilling Engineer (May09-Aug09) Analyzed drilling efficiencies and created a benchmark of multiple operators in the Fayetteville ShaleCompletions Engineer (May08-Aug08) Monitored multiple hydraulic frac jobs and coiled tubing drill outs in the Fayetteville Shale.
