Design of high-rate, MRC, extended-reach wells:

Dynamic simulations using Dynalift to determine the range of the operating gas injection pressure to avoid gas lift instabilities and provide flexibility to handle water cuts from 0 to 100% with a single gas lift valve design as well as to avoid instabilities due to valve interference during the unloading process to increase the life of the subsurface gas lift valves.

Chairman of API task group for the development of RP 11V10 (Recommended Practice for Intermittent Gas Lift).
Author of the Book “Fundamentals of Gas Lift Engineering: Well Design and Troubleshooting” Gulf Professional Publishing, Elsevier, 2016.
 

Official Gas Lift Instructor for PDVSA since 1991, accredited as such by PDVSA Education and Training Center (former CEPET). 
Constant contact with field operations and many field assignments exclusively as a Gas Lift Specialist to many places in Eastern and Western Venezuela, Middle East, and the North Sea, with a great variety of reservoirs and gas lift operational problems that are unique to each gas lift field.
