Work History

Petroleum Engineer

Silverleaf Resources Inc.
Calgary, AB
05.2020 - 08.2021
  • Conducted field visits during normal operations to oversee well performance and supervise well site field operations and down-hole operations for data acquisition, pressure surveys, and workover jobs.
  • Identified and assessed workover and production enhancement opportunities for low producer and inactive wells to optimize oil and gas production.
  • Monitored and estimated reservoir performance, improved existing oil and gas recovery techniques.
  • Conducted reserves studies, project evaluations, resource evaluations, production/reservoir performance forecasts, reporting, and reservoir look-back analysis.

Reservoir Engineer

PETRONAS
Kuala Lumpur, KL, Malaysia
06.2014 - 12.2018
  • Executed advanced reservoir engineering tasks, including simulation using Petrel RE, Eclipse, and Navigator. Conducted rock properties and fluid characterization analyses with SCAL and PVTsim, performed pressure transient analysis with Ecrin, nodal analysis, material balance analysis, and production forecasting using integrated oil/gas network models such as FORGAS, MBAL, PROSPER, and GAP.
  • Collaborated effectively within multidisciplinary teams comprising reservoir engineers, geo-modellers, reservoir geologists, geophysicists, and petrophysicists to construct 3D reservoir models. Conducted reservoir simulations, history matching, predictive analysis, and economic evaluations, successfully delivering the Field Development Plan for the Tembikai/Dulang Oil Fields and Kanowit Gas Field.
  • Contributed to the assessment of various exploration prospects, new discoveries, and new venture block evaluations. Delivered comprehensive resource assessments, conceptual field/area development plans, production forecasts, and economic evaluations.
  • Participated in diverse drilling and well operations, including wireline logging, MDT, Mini DSTs, conventional DSTs, well testing, PVT fluid sampling, and laboratory analysis.
  • Conducted monthly validation tests on over 100 wells, including production allocation. Updated and analyzed data using OFM to ensure accuracy and efficiency.
  • Planned and executed field activities such as static/flowing gradient surveys, pressure build-up tests, multi-rate tests, and tracer dilution testing, ensuring operational excellence and reliability.
  • Prepared detailed annual reserves evaluation reports (ARPR), work programs and budgets (WP&B), and reservoir management reviews for a gas-producing cluster with a capacity of approximately 700 MMscf/d and an oil-producing cluster with a capacity of approximately 10,000 stb/d. Presented findings and strategies to management and host authorities effectively.
