What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an upstream/oil & gas role where I can support field operations and pipeline commissioning, use SCADA and production data for optimization, and grow in machine-learning-driven forecasting—within a safety-focused multidisciplinary team.

I’m a fourth-year Oil and Gas Engineering student (DMI) building practical capability across upstream natural gas production, gas processing operations, and pipeline systems. Through my industrial exposure at GASCO and Solutions Tag Consulting, I’ve supported operational execution and site coordination with a strong focus on safe startup readiness and compliance.

I’ve worked hands-on at Songosongo Gas Processing Plant from well stream reception through treated gas export, assisting with dehydration units, de-carbonation systems, separators, and compression units. I also monitor production data and performance using SCADA systems to support operational decision-making, and I’ve contributed to reservoir and production evaluation through exposure to Eclipse and production trend analysis.

I also bring field-ready competence in gas distribution and CNG operations, supporting onshore CNG production at the TPDC MLIMANI CITY CNG Mother Plant and contributing to commissioning activities such as cold and hot checks and system integrity verification. I complement my engineering work with analytics and machine learning—using Power BI, SQL, Python, and CISCO data analytics coursework—to support production forecasting and system optimization while collaborating effectively in multidisciplinary teams.
