Message

At RN – Middle East Company (Rosneft), I controlled costs for capital and non-capital projects across five oil and gas blocks, including EPC projects valued at $100 million. I led monthly budget-versus-actual reviews and prepared the Five-Year Business Plan aligned with the Work Program agreed with the Ministry of Natural Resources.

As an Independent Consultant for an Oil & Gas client in Oman, I built integrated financial models for exploration, development and production projects to support board-level investment decisions. I also prepared forecasts and investor presentations supporting capital raising for new field acquisitions.

Earlier, at Geopetrol International Inc., I developed budgets for oil and gas and CBM projects and built a 20-year CBM feasibility model covering NPV, break-even, costs, revenue and tax. My experience also includes FP&A at Genpact India Inc. and InterContinental Hotels Group, supported by my CMA and MBA.
