Following on I was involved in generating a waterflood plan and production profile for each specific prospect, determining water flood plan from the number of injectors based on mobility ratio assumption, sweep efficiency; defining injection pattern & location of injectors from geological structure, reservoir structure, well correlation, oil & water contact, well location & structure of surrounding area; determining drill injector or converted a producer to an injector by reviewing well potential, production data; reservoir permeability, thickness (kh), distance of injector to producer, geological structure and pressure data; and defining injection requirements from void replacement ratio (VRR) calculation based on reservoir data and material balance equation. During the project, I applied and enhanced technical skills and time management skills to perform on the company project and completed the project within the designated timeframe by using an organised approach and prioritising tasks accurately.

‘Peak oil’ refers to the prime of any field’s production, after which goes into terminal decline. Most major US oil fields are beyond peak oil. The largest US oil field, Prudhoe Bay, has been depleting since 1979 (Prudhoe, 2012). The US Energy Information Administration indicates much production, particularly in the Alaskan North Slope, depends on world oil prices (Energy, 2012). Geophysicists and politicians debate over specifications regarding overall US peak oil, arguing the year in which US peak oil occurred.
During the two weeks at the company, I spent at least one full day in each of the company’s various departments and participated in the company’s on-going projects aimed at improving the company’s operations. This gave me the opportunity to employ my skills of working in teams and develop my creativity.
You have also done a successful job at managing your daily work list and managing your time effectively to meet deadlines that have been set for the business unit.
Alberta’s oil and gas industry is a major necessity to the economic well being of the Canadian nation as a whole. This can be clearly seen with regards to the federals governments Equalization plan in which Alberta has not received a payment since the 1960’s. Although the oil and gas industry is detrimental to the environment, it is a necessity to the life the majority of Canadians take for granted and the notion that we can simply turn off the oil spigot and turn to natural resources without detrimental economic and societal impacts is unfounded, unrealistic, and without logic.
Through the use of advanced technologies, geologists have the capability to predict potential locations for oil. This is done by the examination of the structure of rock layers, which is then followed by a test-drill in the Earth’s surface. Not every location that gets examined contain commercially viable oil reserves as some locations will have no oil or gas, some will have tiny amounts, and others will have the oil present but it will still be trapped within the porous rock layers such as oil shale. The earth’s crust plates are constantly on the move, and the oil reserves migrate with them. The reason a lot of the oil drilling occurs at sea is particulurarly because the majority of the crust of the planet, under which the oil is located,
The TexasAgs oil company case study gave us insights on different aspects of a negotiation that can happen in real world scenarios. It elegantly portrayed the importance of having a BATNA, setting target and restriction points, impact of the fluctuating markets on the ongoing negotiations, downside of the emotional behavior, importance of having a third party member or mediator in the negotiation. The case illustrates that the negotiations should be based assumptions as they may or may not be right. Having facts and understanding the other parties true objectives and goals are truly essential in negotiation. It is a typical example of how the current power on one side can dominate and take complete advantage of their position.
Given the level of experience I have accrued in my last 3 years both in Ghana and Uganda coupled with my strong academic achievement, I am confident that I have what it takes to carry out research and contribute effectively to the Civil Engineering Department of the North Dakota State University and subsequently match the academic standards set by the University.
While projects can be similar in some instances, no two projects are ever the same. For this reason, management of projects requires the application of tools and techniques to meet the goals of the temporary endeavor. Project managers apply these tools and techniques to determine what is required for project delivery such as the list of activities to completed, the time required to complete the activities, resources needed and the various risks associated with the deliverable and efforts. A multitude of tools and techniques are employed by the project manager based on the need of the effort to organize, identify and communicate the various aspects of the project. While in contrast, the repetitive nature of operations activities
The purpose is to focus on the issues regarding the onshore and offshore petroleum resource of Australia and the role, which they play regarding the future energy of Australia. The report would discuss all the issue around onshore gas and how onshore gas activity affects the future of energy resource in Australia. Furthermore, the paper would shows the fact and legal issues surrounding the interest which compare with the petroleum activity and how the activity effect the landlord and the environment and significances of the activity on landlord and the environment. Lastly the paper would also discuss the regulatory reform, which should be implemented, on the onshore and offshore petroleum and their function and the reason for
The value of being prepared cannot be overstated when it comes to negotiations. Failure to understand one 's best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA) options is one example of poor planning that can leave a party at the mercy of another. Such is the case of the Pacific Oil Company (POC) case study where POC and Reliant Corporation worked together to negotiate a business contract for the supply and purchase of a vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) product. The negotiation process did not go as planned, and the following will explain the case overview, provide insight to the various negotiation styles and tactics utilized in the negotiation process, and explore the anticipated outcome of the contract negotiations.
When entering into contract negotiations, the objective of each side is to obtain a contract of greatest benefit to their organization. This desirable outcome never happens by chance; it is always the result of careful planning. A critical part of this planning is understainding the role of power. This includes determining who possesses the power in bargaining, and establishing strrategies to bargain with individiuals who have more power than you. This power is needed to obtain the advantage in negotiating which will increase the liklihood of obtaining the goal (Lewicki, Saunders & Barry, 2011). Once in the heat of negotiation, it can be too late to try to catch-up on planning which failed to occur before the negotiation process began.
The below statement briefly captures my project management skills and qualities that I would like to be bring it across into the project life span to deliver projects within time, resource and budget constraints.

The oil industry can not be discussed without mentioning the name John D. Rockefeller. Rockefeller changed the business of oil distribution. In the 19th century Rockefeller began his humble beginnings with a small investment, along with two other partners, in the oil refining business. Eventually Rockefeller upset at the direction of the company bought out his partners. He was now buying into refining and developing kerosene and other petroleum-based products. He later named this company The Standard Oil Company which by 1872 nearly owned all the oil refineries in Cleveland. In 1882, Rockefeller took all his holdings and merged them into the Standard Oil Trust. Through smart business
