Accomplishments
ArcGIS/ArcMap Experience – 2004 – GPS field mapping with ARC GIS post processing, building wetland and park maps, along with conservation planning maps
2006 – Generated maps of fractures and faults observed on remote sensing images and confirmed with measurements taken in the field
2010 –Map and design multi-depth horizontal wells for production in prospective oil fields in Alaska
Designed approximately 10 different reservoirs
2019 – Built precise maps of well leases and well bores
Emphasis was shown on actual locations of perforations and true paths of the wellbores in reference to ownership boundaries
2023 – using ArcCatalog to investigate attributes of .shp files obtained from various sources.
