MMbbls Limited | Jul 2016 - Apr 2017

Geologist / Geomodeler

MMBBLS provides subsurface consulting services to the international oil and gas industry. Our expertise is production and development projects focussing on structural definition, reservoir characterisation and deterministic and probabilistic volumetrics. Some of my project work included: • Data rooms for North Sea fields, static model QC • Static Modeling & History Matching, Clastic Reservoir • Static Modeling of Fractured Basement Reservoir • Well analysis, Sedimentology, Basin Stratigraphy • Data Management, GIS work www.mmbbls.com Subsurface consultancy services and field-development web-application tools.

Various Companies | Jan 2016 - Jul 2016

Contract Geologist / Geophysicist

variety of projects with different companies and consultancies, notably: - MNSH and Rockall Trough: working with a small start up, I conducted multiple studies, creating depositional maps and interpreting seismic over large areas of the MNSH to aid in evaluating stratigraphy and HC potential. Using the company's own custom software, I converted seismic to lithology and QC'd the results. I presented my work to leading industry organisations who acted as peer groups, and otherwise attended various startup and industry events to meet with prospective clients or investors and market our software.

Hess Corporation | Jul 2011 - Oct 2012

Geoscience Technician

Working in a variety of roles, specifically as part of the Middle East team in London, and more generally as interface between data management and application support services for Hess’ exploration teams. This included first line support and rapid-response data loading in multiple programs. ArcGIS support; was in charge of database management and map generation; and taking large datasets generated from the exploration teams and creating maps for management. Also performed analysis on satellite image data for use in the exploration team. Operational drilling workflow development; mapping out data flows inside of the company to determine deliverables needed to be captured and devise appropriate storage and retrieval systems. Legacy seismic data capture; oversaw and managed a small team to digitise and upload legacy data to the company database, leading to a large savings for the company.
