Senior Engineer, (Hydraulic Fracturing & Coiled tubing)
Superior Energy Services
01.2016 - 01.2019
- Project Engineer for Cairn India Limited, Geo-Enpro, Essar Oil Limited, and GEECL.
- Engineer in charge for Raageshwari deep wells (HPHT), Barmer – While subcontracted under Schlumberger in the IPM project, conducted problem statement analysis, milling, cleanout, and N2 lift job design and execution for wells in Raageshwari, which were due for completion owing to issues such as fishing, tubular integrity, and perforations, with issues of minimum restrictions under HPHT environment.
- Coiled Tubing Assisted Multistage Fracturing – Job design and execution, sand jet perforation with MCCL correlation, sand cleanout (linear gel and foamed gel), and sand dumping.
- Selective stimulation using diverters – formation stimulation with different acid recipes, oxidising agents, enzymes, chelating agents, and diverters such as foam, rocksalt, and benzoic and naphthalene-based diverters to achieve conformance.
- Conventional jobs of coiled tubing include foamed sand cleanout in sub-hydrostatic wells, wellbore cleanout for scale and deposit removal using high impact rotary tools, well unloading using nitrogen, planned and executed fishing jobs, IRBP and inflatable straddle packer setting, cement milling, SSD manipulation, and velocity string installation in gas wells.
- Delivered detailed technical reports and presentations to senior management, providing insights into project progress, challenges, and solutions.
- Designed the first-ever and successfully executed 'Selective Acidisation using foam diversion and defoamer' in CBM formation, which increased methane production considerably after treating 15 wells.
Well Stimulation Engineer
Essar Oil Limited
