Professional Profile
A final year BEng Petroleum Engineering student with professional experience in advanced drilling solutions, petroleum
refinery operations, and implementation of procedures and best practices following knowledge management processes.
Seeking a graduate engineering role in the oil and gas industry to develop engineering and management skills and apply
new ideas to real-life industry problems.
Education
09/2011 – 07/2015:
BEng (Hons) in Petroleum Engineering, University of Portsmouth, United Kingdom
(Predicted Grade - Second Class Honours-Upper Division)
Degree has focussed on the study of Structural Geology, Petroleum Refinery Operations, Petroleum Reservoir
Thermodynamics and Fluid Properties, Reservoir and Drilling Engineering, Petroleum Production Engineering and
Engineering Mathematics, Instrumentation and Control.
This course has enabled me to:
Gain introductory training on reservoir simulation software systems and complete lab experiments on topics such
as: Eclipse; Petrel; CMG; Drilling Mud; Mud Density; Mud Viscosity; Retort Analysis; Mud Rheology; API Filtration
Test and API HPHT Filtration Test.
Obtain knowledge and understanding of principles that underpin engineering science, mathematics and applied
sciences essential for a petroleum engineer.
Undertake field visits (such as Singleton and Storrington oil fields) and gain an understanding of: technology
application in the field; how operations are conducted; the challenges faced during and after production (specifically
in gas and water management); and the expectations of oil and gas engineers.
Improve analytical skills, leading to the ability to apply engineering principles to a wide range of applications.
Develop competence in engineering design and work with ultra-modern equipment such as x-ray diffractometers, x-
ray fluorescence spectrometers, scanning electron microscopes, ICPMS and atomic absorption spectrophotometers.
Appreciate and understand the economic, social and environmental context in which petroleum engineers’ work.
Develop the ability to think critically and analyse information in an objective manner in order to form a judgement.
Analyse data to review, enhance or promote sustainable development and use creativity to establish innovative
solutions.
Enhance the ability to work independently or in groups to manage projects and meet deadlines.
09/2007 – 07/2011:
Brockenhurst College
BTEC National Diploma in Engineering - Awarded best engineering project of the year.
BTEC First Diploma in Engineering.
Relevant Experience
06/2013 - 06/2014:
Drilling Solutions Engineer Assistant (Placement Year)
National Oilwell Varco, Porthethen - Aberdeen.
Monitored tool performance and reported trends to product centre on a case-by-case basis. Recorded findings on a
Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and liaised with product centre by telephone and email.
Gathered competitor's tool performance data to assist the company’s sales force with detailed performance studies.
This was conducted for the purpose of critical or strategic applications; ensuring drilling performance was
optimised.
Employed the ‘conventional drilling cost’ formula to perform ‘Bit Run’ cost equations; providing Drilling Engineer
with quick estimates of offset bit run costs and the ability to compare drilling bits.
Assisted Drilling Solutions Engineer in complaint reports and hazard and near miss investigation processes; often
encouraging peers to follow health and safety procedures and best practices through sharing information in
accordance with company’s knowledge management processes.
