Consulting Geoscientist (Berlin, Germany)

11/2014 — 19/2018

• Designed novel algorithms to solve various geophysical problems and building tools for enhanced characterization of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs.
• Developed an efficient algorithm of 3D fully anisotropic raytracing to facilitate anisotropic velocity model inversion and location of microseismic events in anisotropic media.
• Invented a new approach for microseismic Moment Tensor Inversion and brought it to the market as a SAAS product.
• Built a cloud based infrastructure capable of performing large scale real time microseismic data processing.
• Co-founded a service company that provided data processing and data analytics services to the Oil&Gas operators in the US.

Department of Earth Sciences, Freie Universität Berlin (Berlin, Germany)

Postdoctoral research associate, 10/2013 — 05/2017

• Conducted research and developed innovative methods for better understanding the physics of fluid-induced seismicity.
• Supervised and mentored bachelor and master students.
• Performed consulting services for the industrial sponsors of PHASE university consortium.
• Developed a new approach to represent microseismic waveform data and assess quality of the arrival time pick and microseismic event locations.

Research assistant, 09/2007 — 10/2013

• Invented a novel approach for using microseismic data to achieve enhanced characterization of unconventional reservoirs. The method employs microseismic events as sources, coupled with a custom imaging operator, to facilitate ultra-high resolution reflection imaging of stimulated reservoirs (PhD thesis).
• Performed microseismic reflection imaging of Basel geothermal reservoir to help to minimize risk of large earthquakes in geothermal reservoir development (MeProRisk project).
• Built a reflection image of San Andreas fault zone (SAFOD), contributed to better understanding of the fault zone geometry and tectonic processes (BU1364/4-1 of the German Science Foundation and ICDP-SPP).
