This is a shout out for the IEM. My Technical Division will be hosting a talk on the 11th June, 2011. It’ll be at 9:30 am (makan-makan at 9:00). You still gotta climb those steps at Wisma IEM.
Developing an oil field is never a one-woman task. Regardless of the field’s size or setting, an integrated team approach is inevitable. The talk will touch on the integrated team make-up and briefly discuss the role of each team member in the various phase of a field life including identifying a potential reservoir for development utilizing fit-for-purpose techniques. Whilst having the core disciplines in the team, who are armed with experienced and knowledge, equipped with the IT-know-how, is critical, a proven work process is also important to ensure effective implementation of the proposed field development plan. The talk will then elaborate on how a reservoir engineer contributes to the formulation of an optimum field development plan.
Allida Muhammad Said has more than 20 years of experience in the oil & gas industry working at the various phases of a field life, an experience critical in formulating an optimum field development plan. A reservoir engineer in a multinational oil company for 15 years, she then became a pioneer in the setting-up of a local company which provides upstream consultancy service throughout the oil and gas E&P life cycle, from the exploration phase to the tertiary production phase.
As a Head of the Engineering Department and a Project Manager, she manages both the technical and commercial aspects of a project which include locating by-passed oil in a complex field with historical production via dynamic simulation, quantifying asset value leading to block acquisition, evaluating a real development plan for massive investment and maximizing profit of a marginal field development. She has worked in the different areas including the basins in Iran, Bangladesh, Vietnam and Indonesia. Allida is also as an adjunct lecturer with the University Teknologi Petronas (UTP) and serves as the external examiner as the industry representative for the UTP students Final Year Project.
A mother of three, she advocates positive parenting via active participation in her children activities; hence her involvement as a Vice President of the Malaysian Rare Disorder Society and a Green Consultant for Yayasan Anak Warisan Alam, a youth environmental group.
