Improved Oil Recovery- Test methods, mechanisms, and chemistries

Expertise

I've spent my career in oil and gas qualifying and developing completions and restimulation chemistries. My team has developed a cutting-edge, proprietary laboratory workflow to determine compatible chemistries for various applications. Chemistries developed and qualified by this laboratory workflow have increased oil recovery by up to 60% when compared to control wells. My group is dedicated to uncovering the recovery mechanisms in unconventional resources and developing the chemistries and methods necessary to increase oil production. 

I firmly believe that the way to an energy independent and sustainable future is through safe, efficient, and smart use of our oil and gas resources. Experts today believe that we are only recovering 4-10% of oil in wells drilled in the Permian Basin. We owe it to ourselves and future generations to innovate and improve oil recovery!
