Key Job Accountabilities

1. Implement Integrated Activity and Gas Volume Plans as per UGP process cycles and sequences, and align with stakeholders all well test and injection programs in coordination with operations.

2. Review production guidelines and provide scenarios to optimize gas and condensate from the company wells and review non-routine or unplanned events requiring the management of special parameters (H2S / Water / Condensate / Casing Pressure).

3. Implement contingency plans to address unforeseen production shortages and downtime and ensure production availability from offshore in advance to satisfy the LNG requirements and mitigate the short falls.

4. Develop key monitoring parameters, boundaries and coordinate integration of all well production data and parameters at offshore and onshore facilities and monitor performance of production system from reservoir to facilities. Recommend additional well data acquisitions to investigate production performance problems.

5. Coordinate and review Well Performance and System Network Performance models and ensure performance as per the operating boundaries set by company standards. Confirm accuracy of the measurement and metering electronics and transmitters.

6. Review PLT interpretations to enhance and use production profiling for better understanding and decision making and analyze onshore wastewater injection wells and its associated facilities for uninterrupted water injection. Implement injection guidelines and quality requirements on a continual basis.

7. Coordinate stimulation design strategy development and identification of various options and coordinate testing and cleanup of wells post stimulation and any change management actions. Review and finalize well testing reports for new wells and re-completions.

8. Develop assessment criteria for stimulation effectiveness rig based flow back or PLT data and recommend criteria for well performance of producing wells and recommend remedial actions.

9. Develop criteria and checklist for production performance of Well, Platform, and Asset for development and re-development projects. Support WIS and WEP development for re-completions and development wells with stimulation and well clean up input.

10. Review and approve well production volume back allocation based on well test and reservoir engineering inputs related to reservoir allocation and Production Logging (PL) interpretation. Complete monthly and annual reconciliations at all fiscal meter level until feed gas to the LNG plant.
