Work Experience

• Geoscience Intern - Numerical Modeling, Chevron Technical Center (June 20, 2024 - September 20, 2024)

  Basin analysis and numerical modeling study focused on basin evolution, salt tectonics and implications on heat flow for global new ventures.

  Location

  Houston, TX

• Geoscience Intern - Numerical Modeling: Research & Development, Chevron Technical Center (June 20, 2023 - 9/20/2023)

  CO2 injection and plume modelling: Analysis of migration methods and approaches
  used for mapping CO2 plume distributions applied to a case study in the Gulf of Mexico.

  Location

  Houston, TX

• Exploration Geoscientist - Geomechanical Modeling, Schlumberger, Pau (2020 - 2021)

  Worked on 1D, 3D geomechanical studies for wellbore stability for nuclear waste disposal and exploration.

  Location

  France

• Exploration Geoscientist - Basin Modeling, Schlumberger, Aachen Technology Center of Excellence for Basin Modeling (2013 - 2020)

  I worked on projects that focused on basin analysis consulting studies (Europe, North and South America, West Africa) with an interest in understanding temporal basin and rock property evolution, pore pressure development and prediction and the interplay between mechanical and chemical processes using numerical models. Additionally, a critical part of the role was working with the back-end teams contributing to the research and development of the commercial numerical modeling and simulation engine and interfacing software platforms developed.
