Profile
I enjoy a very versatile experience with all engineering related areas of oil and gas exploration and production. I have the experience of supervising and conducting various oil field operations including, Scheduling replacement rigs, Scheduling well workovers, Supervising workovers and completions operations, Co-ordinating with service companies for logging, servicing, selecting products, and fishing tools. Since 1992, I have taken over as the head of Service Well Test Analysis ; This service acts as the backbone of providing technical information to various departments with in Sonatrach – Hassi Messaoud to facilitate designing of workover jobs, stimulation jobs, and of providing input to the designing of short radius wells and horizontal wells. I am well familiar with well test analysis software from KAPPA engineering `Saphire' and IHS ENERGY GROUP production optimization package `PERFORM'. I have adequate experience in preparing reports for management and have participated in reservoir optimization studies with Sonatrach Head Office in Algiers. I am an active member of SPE and have attented a number of Technical Courses. Cummulative Experience in the oil and gas industry is more 20 years.
