Description

With more than 10 years of experience as a geoscientist in international projects (TotalEnergies, SOCAR, and global partners such as Equinor, BP, RWE-Deutag, and JOGMEC), I specialize in seismic interpretation, reservoir characterization, and subsurface imaging. I bring expertise in both qualitative and quantitative geophysics — from seismic acquisition QC and processing, to AVO analysis, inversion, attribute studies, and 3D static modeling of clastic and carbonate reservoirs.

I add value by combining deep domain knowledge with modern data science tools. Using Python, SQL, Power BI, and Tableau, I automate interpretation workflows, perform advanced data analysis, and deliver clear visualizations that support decision-making and reduce uncertainty. This dual background in geoscience + data analytics enables me to solve complex problems efficiently and deliver results that integrate seamlessly with multidisciplinary teams.

What I typically deliver:

- Subsurface maps & 3D reservoir models

- Seismic interpretation reports (structural & stratigraphic)

- Reservoir property prediction (AVO, inversion, rock physics)

- Drilling hazard assessments (PPFG, geomechanics)

- Automated workflows for seismic & well log datasets

- Data dashboards for exploration and reservoir management

Clients appreciate my ability to communicate results clearly, adapt to diverse project contexts, and deliver work that is both technically rigorous and business-oriented. Whether you need targeted interpretation support, integrated reservoir studies, or geophysical data analysis powered by modern analytics, I can help you achieve reliable, actionable outcomes.
