  • Perform casing and tubing design, analysis, and integrity models to ensure isolation and integrity during stimulation and during the life cycle of production operations.
  • Identify completion equipment needs, participate in equipment and vendor selection and monitoring of selected vendor performance.
  • Generate well/project specific AFEs and track variances to actual performance.
  • Interface and collaborate regularly with the global supply chain team, drilling/production/reservoir engineers, geoscientists, data scientists and HES personnel.
  • Perform monthly accounting responsibilities such as cost tracking, equipment inventory control, accruals, and variance analysis.
  • Prepare and deliver technical presentations for management reviews, peer reviews, and technical committee meetings.
  • Accept accountability for success and failure; communicate and disseminate details on both to improve overall operational efficiency and HES performance.
  • Provide safety leadership throughout completion operations. Participate in or lead incident investigations, vendor visits, or safety meetings as required.
