EXPERTISE AND SKILLS<br/>Frontier geological analyses: Sedimentology and stratigraphic analysis; sequence stratigraphy and its applications to petroleum exploration/production; development of complex depositional models for both clastic and carbonate environment; whole core description and analyses (SEM, XRD etc).<br/><br/>Technology development: Acquisition of new technologies and their applications to petroleum industry; development of new methods and workflows for subsurface analyses; fracture reservoir description, analysis, characterization and modeling; integrated reservoir characterization for both clastic and carbonate fields; deep-water turbidite depositional model; reserve analysis and workflow, integration geological approaches for unconventional reservoirs.<br/><br/>Basin analysis, stratigraphic trapping and exploration: Types of sedimentary basins and their trapping mechanism, hydrocarbon exploration potential, integrated petroleum system analysis. 20 years of exploration experience.<br/><br/>Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy: Development of concepts, integrated approaches, application to both clastic and carbonate environment. Have a unique background and skill sets in integrating core, logs, seismic and modeling results to assess depositional environment, stratigraphic framework, hydrocarbon distribution, volumetrics and uncertainties, and apply the knowledge to exploration and production.<br/><br/>Reservoir characterization, modeling and development: Solid knowledge in both geological and geophysical interpretation software such as Geolog, StratWorks, SeisWorks, and VoxelGeo; strong ability to carry the results of geoscience interpretation to a reservoir modeling workflow, using software packages such as GOCAD and Petrel; significant experience in utilizing results of reservoir modeling in field development; successfully planning and drilling several deep-water development wells, and leading effort in defining additional opportunities in mature fields. <br/><br/>Resource characterization, volumetric analysis and uncertainty assessment: Using different methods including Petrel modeling tools to characterize resource in low case, most likely, high case, or P10, P50 and P90 cases, and associated geological risks to volumetric uncertainties.<br/><br/>P1-P6 reserve booking based on SEC guidelines: Lead project teams to prepare P1U reserves at projection sanction, and provide P2-P6 forecasts at first oil/gas production. Provide guidelines to calculate OOIP and Expected Ultimate Recovery by following SEC rules.<br/><br/>Unconventional exploration and development: Integrated geological approaches in identification of sweet spots and well placement; tight reservoir analysis and modeling; risky resource evaluation. <br/><br/>Project management: Project identification, planning, and implementation; resource allocation and budget planning; integrated geoscience and engineer approaches to achieve excellence in project management; multi-discipline management in both personnel and technical arenas; had lead a team of over 10 technical staff.<br/><br/>Skills in multicultural environment: Significant experience in multicultural environment, strong abilities to handle any potential cultural differences and conflicts, and create a work environment that maximizes the talent and contribution from each team player.
