For the past seven years I have worked for various oil & gas companies such as:
-
EnCana
Primewest
Athabasca Oilsands Corp
Surge Energy
Broadview Energy
Halvar Resources
Marauder oil & gas
I have worked in areas ranging from North of Fort St John, to North of Red Earth, North
of Fort McMurray, and Fort Mckay. I have also worked in south western Saskatchewan
and southern Alberta. The past six winters have all been in the heavy oil areas in the
Athabasca region.
I have overseen single well location builds with an onsite sump and cement pits, as well
as multi well winter programs with massive remote sumps. Working closely with
environmental and safety companies, I have been able to ensure that all regulations of
the ERCB are met; I have been able to resolve many issues with land owners,
construction contractors, and native relations through negotiations and constant
communications between governments and the oil & gas companies.
I have been the lead construction consultant for a highly successful winter program with
over 60 gas wells drilled, completed and brought online in the NE fields of British
Columbia. As well as being responsible for Freezing in access roads and locations for
another 130 sites for EnCana and Primewest that same winter in a neighboring field.
I am looking forward to discussing any opportunities that may come up with you at.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my resume.
