Geophysicist | EDCON-PRJ | 2013 - 2021
Critically evaluate and analyze gravity and magnetic data in the field and provide quality control, processing reports and overall data analysis to clients from different disciplines.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Rigorously process marine and airborne gravity and magnetic data using in-house software and Oasis Montaj to assess noise, navigation bias and instrument malfunction.
-
Communicate company workflow and products to clients through email, phone calls, face-to-face meetings, and attendance in industry events.
-
Interpret gravity and magnetic data using inversion, modeling, and physical techniques.
-
Creating, documenting, and communicating processing results through a series of presentations and publications which promotes the use of gravity and magnetic data for exploration.
Graduate Research Assistant | Colorado School of Mines | 2016-2017
Collaborated in an academic environment as part of CGEM (Center for Gravity and Electromagnetic methods) led by Professor Yaoguo Li
Key Results:
-
Integrated time-lapse gravity data with water/gas production data to monitor groundwater encroachment using inversion software in a gas reservoir in Western China.
-
Created a workflow to include geologic and production data in time-lapse gravity inversion
-
Prepared materials for reports, presentations, and submission to peer-reviewed journal publications
-
Utilized potential field inversion algorithms in Fortran/Python and developed a 3D interpolation algorithm in Matlab.
