HIMANSU SEKHAR PATI B-511 Knightsbridge Apartment Kundanahalli Gate Bangalore - 560037, India himansu.pati@hotmail.com Mobile 0091 9008 306 255 WORK EXPERIENCE Reservoir engineer with 7 years oil and gas production and exploration experience with a major oil company. As a reservoir engineer I have studied reservoir behavior and characteristics to determine future development plans and production profiles feeding economic evaluations, employed data from various sources to produce development scenarios using computer models to simulate production and to quantify the impact of uncertainty and risk. I have determined well numbers and sites for incremental development activities, such as commissioning additional wells or recommending the employment of enhanced recovery technologies, as well as monitoring and updating models as necessary during the reservoir life cycle. Currently working with Shell Technology India as a Reservoir Engineer from January 2007. Also I am pursuing my Masters degree from Heriot Watt University through distance learning. Total experience is briefed here: Shell International Exploration and Production EPT-S, India (January, 2009 till date) Working as a team member in Zerogen Carbon Capture and Storage project. DST interpretation of Appraisal wells. Integrated Production system modeling using GAP and MoReS for Zerogen CCS project.
