Petroleum Engineer with a Master of Science in Petroleum Engineering, Executive Master of Management in Energy (EMME) focused on Energy Transition and Decarbonization Strategies, with a Financial Management degree and more than 25 years of experience in all areas of Production and Operations engineering in O&G, applied to field exploration and development businesses.
I have administrative experience leading multidisciplinary teams. Ability to conduct pioneering research, introduce new technologies and provide specialized production engineering services as part of reservoir management practices. Expert advice and guidance in all aspects of oil production and operations engineering, including, designing, participating, and implementing best-in-class programs.
Strong experience in well productivity and injectivity issues. Solid technical skills in well completion, evaluation, testing, production surveillance, artificial lift systems, sand control, formation damage diagnostic & remediation. Broad operational experience in workover, wire line, coiled tubing and well stimulation engineering and execution, for conventional and tight gas reservoirs (vertical and horizontal wells - dual lateral).
A combination of my practical experience in the Oil & Gas sector, the knowledge that I recently acquired in schools in Norway and France, which are pioneers in business models and energy market design, and the case studies of the best practices recognized worldwide, related to energy fundamentals, technologies, industries, markets, policies, and investment strategies for sustainable development and decarbonization, have given me the tools needed in order to meet expectations as part of an Energy Transition and Decarbonization Team as well.
