PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

I am a GIS Analyst with over 13 years of professional experience utilizing and supporting GIS software and tools in multiple industries such as oil and gas exploration. Skills include researching, managing and integrating data for the purpose of creating maps for geoscience professionals for Oil Gas exploration and supporting land and facilities management teams. Have an extensive knowledge of coordinate systems and projection datum utilizing ESRI products as well as FME and several other GIS products. I have spent the majority of my career in the Oil Gas sector both in land and facilities management, pipeline data integration and management, and exploration.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

GIS Consultant

Confidential

• I completed multiple contracts for Oil and Gas exploration clients providing GIS analysis for seismic survey exploration in the Eagleford Shale gas play working in the field with survey crews analyzing 2D and 3D seismic data and formatting it for use by geological and geophysical scientists utilizing software packages such as Petra for further analysis.
• Provide Technical support to the GIS Pipeline group in diagnosing issue's related to GIS and Cad based production methodologies.
• Create solutions to increase productivity such as automated features and streamlining work processes.
• Load and verify data in SQL and SDE environments as well as pull reports and data for work processes from SQL databases.
• Act as liaison with software vendors to solve current software issues and integrate new software platforms into current working environment.
• Performed regulatory lease mapping utilizing Arc GIS as well as GIS Data editing on projects for upstream and midstream oil and gas companies including POD's data base integration in SDE environments.
• Experience working with every version of the ESRI GIS suite since 2001 and have worked with multiple other GIS platforms including SmallWorld, MapInfo, Gnome and others.
• Worked for a civil engineering firm utilizing Trimble GPS equipment in field survey drafting for water and waste water devices and transferring that data to both ArcGIS and Autocad formats.
• Perform advanced database analysis and maintenance in the day-to-day operation of the GIS and associated applications.
• Worked with multiple clients supporting the G G groups, the facilities groups, and the land groups, with GIS mapping and data analysis.
• Formatted data and loaded data in SQL.
• Utilized FME for data conversions such as converting CAD files from their .drg format over to ARC .shp files utilizing the tools in FME to remove extemporaneous data and set proper projection on the new data being imported from pipeline alignment sheets and facilities drawings.
• Worked in an SDE environment, utilizing Python, SQL and Oracle to query and build databases.
• Utilized Python scripting to automate several simple mapping processes such as publishing to .pdf a weekly map update for well locations as well as other simple automations.
• Supervised the set up and operation of the field GIS teams for the BP cleanup of the gulf coast oil spill, as a GIS Deployment specialist - assigned field duties to GIS analysts at forward operating bases collected and created data utilizing SDE, Oracle, and Access as well as pushing the data remotely into an SDE database based in Houston.
