A2D
Technologies, A TGS-NOPEC Company |
2003-2007 |
Well Log Analyst – WorkStation Ready
|
|
·
Prepare
digital well log data to be used in geologic workstation applications by
multiple clients (WorkStation Ready processing). Steps in the WSR process
include removing casing effects, depth adjusting logs, splicing curves,
calculating ancillary curves, and standardizing trace mnemonics and units of
measure. Mastered Petcom’s Powerlog application for log processing.
·
Develop,
document, and deploy process workflows for WSR and advanced log analysis
techniques (multi-curve Shale Volume calculations).
·
Develop
utility applications that document WSR processing steps in LAS file headers.
·
Educate
fellow employees about the processes and data involved in the search for oil.
CHEVRON
PETROLEUM TECHNOLOGY COMPANY |
1980-2002 |
Geologic Applications Analyst |
1997-2002
|
·
Created
and maintained 107 Landmark OpenWorks projects used by over 60 earth
scientists. Acquired, manipulated, imported and updated a wide variety of
geologic information into the OpenWorks SQL relational database.
·
Supported
clients by creating Schlumberger's GeoQuest (IESX) projects and populating them
with geophysical (seismic) information and well locations, curves and marker
information.
·
Enabled
the Earth Scientists to focus on prospect generation instead of data management
issues and through one-on-one training enabled them to use the applications
more effectively.
·
Served
as a mentor and problem resolution resource for numerous geologic and
engineering technicians.
·
Documented
solutions and best practices through acting as Webmaster of the Information
Technology Earth Science Application Support web site.
·
Loaded
data, including well location or biographic information, directional survey
information, well log curves, historical markers or formation picks, casing,
liner, perforations, packers, plugs, casing shoes, production volumes and
sidewall sample information. This information was in turn used for well log
correlation, the generation of geologic cross sections, and in the creation of
geologic maps.
Processing analyst co-located with Main Pass Profit Center |
1992-1997 |
·
Geologic
data acquisition, manipulation, loading, and management.
·
Provided
assistance to Earth Scientists in the use of geologic applications.
·
Supported
GoCad and Landmark's OpenWorks, Stratworks, and Zmap+ applications.
·
Provided
geologic and systems support for Main Pass 299 3D Earth Modeling project.
Production
Workstation Support Analyst
|
1987-1992 |
·
Populated
projects with well locations, directional survey data, well log traces and
other well bore related information.
·
Assisted
the geologists in correlating well logs, creating cross sections, maps and
earth models for reservoir simulation.
·
Performed
system administration functions, created user accounts, performed disk
management, and assisted users in learning system commands.
·
Predicted
future performance of oil fields via reservoir simulation, allowing the
prediction of the optimum way to produce a reservoir, reduce risks and get the
maximum return on the investment.
Rapid
Well Log Evaluation System Support
|
1983-1987 |
·
Created
and populated projects with well biographical, directional survey and log trace
information.
·
Performed
analysis to solve logs for shale volume, porosity and water saturation and
created displays of the results.
·
Trained
and acted as mentor to several technicians in four locations through on-site
visits to each office and remote phone support.
·
Resulted
in quantitative information relating to volumes of petroleum that may be
extracted from a reservoir.
Well Log Services Technician |
1980-1983 |
·
Processed
well logs for Chevron Overseas Petroleum, Aramco and the Sudanese government.
·
Acquired
log digits and solved for shale volume, porosity, and water saturation.
·
Resulted
in the quantification of reservoir volume, better drilling and production
plans, and permanent composite records of the digital results of drilling oil
wells.
THE
ANALYSTS INCORPORATED |
1978-1980 |
Total Concept Unit Manager |
|
·
Supervised
the setup and daily operations of mud logging unit and crew.
·
Created
logs of drilling parameters and mud relayed information that provided an
indication of lithology, hydrocarbon presence, and pore pressure.
·
Activities
resulted in safer drilling operations by avoiding well kicks and blowouts and
also gave me first-hand experience in the fundamentals of drilling for
petroleum.
