●
Jan 2018 – Jan 2021
Led the development and testing of Antaeus’ cloud-based (AWS platform) scientific solutions.
Developed the algorithms for discriminant analysis, principal component analysis, regression analysis, logcurves normalization.
Using the Tensorflow framework to construct deep learning models for predictive maintenance, well integrity
monitoring, lithofacies detection, and log curves prediction. More so developing an expert system for drilling
fluids selection program.
Developed tools for well data pre-processing – smoothing, despiking (outlier removal).
Created synthetic datasets to assist in model testing and evaluation during pre-launch of the start-up without
data acquisition costs.
Identified and assessed client’s requirements for managing petroleum engineering plugins and generating
Antaeus solutions accordingly. Prepares, organizes, and delivers presentations based on Antaeus’s technical
solutions to prospective clients.
Developed and implemented a multizone-based algorithm for calibrating empirical mathematical models with
large datasets.
Prepared solution user guides, manuals, and whitepapers on Antaeus’ scientific solutions.
