Halliburton
15 years of experience
I started in upstream oil and gas exploration with an engineering degree in electronics and worked in Canada, Norway, Middle East and India for the first 8 years of my career. Then I moved downstream and worked in the Pipeline services side of the business for the rest of my career. I collaborate with customers to provide solutions that are tailored to the needs of the project with an eye towards cost and time efficiencies.
