About Gonzalo Flores

My specialty is executing upstream well completion operations end-to-end, including business support functions, P&L, innovative technology implementation, technical sales, and Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) compliance in New Mexico, Texas and North Dakota. With 18+ years of experience as a Senior Completions Engineer, Subsurface Supervisor, and Consulting Engineer for various operators across the US, I’ve had the opportunity to continuously improve, whether that be streamlining operations, optimizing stimulation treatment designs, exceeding revenue targets, or introducing new technologies for implementation in the field.I excel at leading multi-disciplinary teams across all levels, including technicians, superintendents, on-site consultants, engineers and geologists. My hands-on approach to hydraulic fracturing and completion operations with diverse plays - tight gas (Haley Field in Delaware Basin), low perm oil (Wolfberry), and unconventional shales (Delaware Basin, Barnett, Bakken & Eagle Ford Shales)- has led to innovative safety solutions, technical field solutions, and optimized well performance across the board.In past management and leadership roles, I: Saved $15% in Year-over-Year well completions costs. Increased proppant/ft 49% while maintaining well completion life cycles. Supervised completion of 175 wells/year with no more than 4% downtime. Led engineering team to deliver a record 40 well sales in one month by streamlining operations by 22%. Contributed to exceeding BOED of net production in 2 years as team lead over 4 engineers. Boosted average quarterly stage/day efficiencies by 28% while slashing completion costs by 15%.Some of my key skills include:+ HSE & Safety+ Cost Controls+ Data Analysis + Technical Sales+ Well Optimization+ Crew Management+ Hydraulic Fracturing+ Performance Metrics+ Process Improvement + Completion OperationsMy software competencies include:Frac Modeling: Meyers & FracProCasing Design: WELLCAT Drilling and Well Data Management: WellView Data Analysis: Spotfire & TableauMost importantly, I’m a team-focused leader who enjoys collaborating with a wide variety of people – from in-field crews to in-office engineers to senior-level management.
