Independent Researcher

• Built a techno-economic optimization model comparing grid-sourced, dedicated-renewable, and partial-mandate hydrogen production at the Intermountain Power Project, using two years of hourly CAISO SP-15 price data, site-calibrated solar and wind generation, and hourly grid carbon intensity, validated against the project's own disclosed financials.
• Quantified the cost premium of a renewable-only supply mandate relative to grid-sourced supply, decomposed that premium into its underlying drivers (energy cost, asset utilization, and storage) to identify which lever matters most for cost reduction, and converted the finding into an implied carbon-abatement cost to benchmark the mandate against conventional carbon-pricing policy.
• Working paper posted on SSRN (DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.7428658); submitted to the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, currently under peer review. Described further on the Research page.

Carnegie Mellon University — Tepper School of Business · Capstone Project

• Validated technical and economic parameters (round-trip efficiency, depth of discharge, degradation, augmentation, OPEX) using industry and second-life data.
• Developed a dynamic LCOS valuation model to compare zinc-bromide and lithium-ion (LFP) storage technologies.
• Linked technical performance to financial outcomes, supporting commercialization and investor-readiness analysis.

Pertamina Hulu Energi OSES · Internal study

• Conducted a technical-economic assessment of converting electrical submersible pumps to gas lift and reusing flare gas. The NPV-based analysis found the proposed pilot would be value-destructive under then-current costs, avoiding a negative-NPV capital commitment; facility and compressor designs were separately applied to the company's flare-gas reduction program.

CNOOC SES Ltd. & Starborn Chemical Company

• Evaluated chemical treatments to maintain polymer viscosity during enhanced oil recovery, identifying an effective additive combination (150 ppm S-9119, 100 ppm S-9363) to stabilize polymer injection.
• Published case study — Indonesian Petroleum Association

Institut Teknologi Bandung

• Created simulation-based algorithms to manage downhole water flow and improve oil recovery efficiency, evaluating economic impact via NPV comparison between conventional and downhole water loop wells, showing higher profitability under reservoir-pressure conservation conditions.
• Finalist, SPE Student Paper Contest; presented at the National Doctoral Forum, Beijing.

Pertamina Hulu Energi OSES — Jakarta, Indonesia

• Performed DCF, NPV, and IRR investment analyses for multi-million-dollar well programs, including a $30 million development-drilling campaign.
• Led the artificial-lift conversion study (ESP to gas lift with flare-gas reuse), directing a cross-disciplinary team spanning reservoir, production, mechanical, and electrical engineering through an NPV-based investment case; the analysis found a proposed ~$15 million pilot would be value-destructive, avoiding a negative-NPV capital commitment.
• Applied data analytics and statistical monitoring (SCADA, Oracle, PowerBI) to evaluate 130 wells and reduce downtime across a portfolio of 165 active wells ($85 million annual budget).
• Coordinated multi-disciplinary teams (3 operator groups, 12 staff) in planning, logistics, and budget control for field-wide operations and maintenance programs.
• Served on the Exploration Well Artificial-Lift Contract Team ($1.5 million value), reviewing supplier proposals and ensuring technical and economic alignment with field plans.
• Mentored junior engineers and student trainees on production analysis and cost modeling.

CNOOC SES Ltd. — Jakarta, Indonesia

• Served as acting Petroleum Engineer Specialist within the Management Development Program, contributing to long-term planning, project valuation, and economic performance reviews.
• Monitored 300 wells across 19 offshore platforms ($115 million operations) using SCADA and PowerBI dashboards to inform budget allocation and production targets.
• Managed well-work programs valued at $0.5–2 million, overseeing budget forecasting, vendor coordination, and schedule compliance.
• Led a $9 million pilot enhanced oil recovery (EOR) project, combining simulation and field testing to assess recovery improvement and economic feasibility.
• Analyzed operations of a 90 MW field power system, identifying maintenance and fuel-cost reduction options through process-efficiency modeling.
