Project value is often determined long before detailed engineering starts. The critical work is making assumptions visible, integrating disciplines, testing options and creating a decision that can survive the transition into execution.
Selected cases
Project cases.
Portfolio Integration – 6 Fields
Restructured development across six mature assets and identified shared infrastructure that changed the portfolio investment case.
≈ $48M
Water Injection Re-engineering
Merged a development scope and an asset-integrity programme into one study and replaced a disproportionate redevelopment concept: VRR from 70% to 95% at 80% lower CAPEX.
$3.6M saved
EPC Bid Analysis & Contract Strategy
Decomposed bid escalation drivers across a major upstream portfolio and structured scenarios around schedule, FEED maturity, scope and risk allocation.

Engineering scope
What I work on.
Concept Development
FEL1–FEL2, Pre-FEED, option screening, concept selection and investment readiness.
Brownfield Optimisation
Re-engineering, debottlenecking, live-asset interfaces and execution constraints.
Integrated Development
Production, subsurface, facilities and operations aligned around one development logic.
Economics & Risk
CAPEX optimisation, technical uncertainty, execution risk and decision scenarios.
Study Leadership
Multidisciplinary teams, contractor interfaces, governance and gate-ready deliverables.
Digital Decision Support
Digital Oilfield experience and interactive models that make constraints visible.

Reading the region as an early-phase engineer.
A concept check of the 2014 Kurdamir development plan on public data. The CPF, not the reservoir, limits the plan; a larger phased concept adds 3.8 billion $ of modelled NPV.

Gulf exports are back above 80% of pre-war levels, but via bypass routes. An export route is a system of pipeline, storage, terminals and vessels, and each can bind.
