INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE & ENGINEERING PROJECTS

PROJECT: Capping Subsea Blowout Wells CURTIN UNIVERSITY 2017

Investigated the root cause of the wellhead blowout explosion that caused the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Researched key technologies and equipment required for well containment in addition to the effects that
pressure and temperature play in minimising internal and external blowouts.

INT E RN S HI P E X P E RI EN C E & E NG I N E ER IN G PRO J ECT S CO NT IN UE D

Reviewed research papers and contacted top-leading industry drilling engineers to discuss issues
involving well control and how different types of blowouts occur.
Used computational fluid dynamics modelling software to simulate well drilling scenarios and determine the
feasibility and stability of capping stacks to overcome the force of the blowout jet.

Compiled and delivered a blowout contingency plan detailing preventative measures to manage and
mitigate risks and ensure safe and sustainable operations at all times.

Proposed computerised solution to aid in monitoring key subsea temperatures and pressures.

Mechanical Engineering Intern HINDUSTAN MACHINE TOOLS Kerala, India 2011 2012

Collaborated with a 4-member engineering team on a project focused on designing and optimising the efficiency of a
2-speed gear box for a computer numerical control (CNC) machine. Interned while attending VMKV College full-time.

Designed the poly-v drive, shaft, spline, key, bearing and cone-clamping components to enable the gearbox
to run at a variety of speeds and feeds.

Performed engineering efficiency calculations to determine the desired operating tolerances; created the
assembly layout and device design using AutoCAD and SolidWorks modelling tools.
