About Sule Gurses

With 27 years in the oil and gas industry across both operating and service companies, I bring multidisciplinary expertise spanning reservoir engineering, reservoir simulation, completions, artificial lift, production systems, and integrated surface - subsurface workflows. My core strength is connecting disciplines and translating technical insight into practical, field-ready decisions.My career has focused primarily on reservoir and production domains, while working closely with geology, completions, stimulation, monitoring, and midstream/surface teams. This cross-domain exposure enables me to contribute effectively to integrated field development, reservoir management, and production optimization initiatives, aligning technical design with operational realities across the full project lifecycle.I have supported and led work across software applications, modeling and simulation workflows, field planning, completions technology selection, and optimization strategies, with particular emphasis on intelligent completions, monitoring systems, sand control, and multistage stimulation applications.My experience includes:• 3 years with TPAO (Turkey) in production engineering, supporting carbonate and sandstone reservoir studies, completion strategies for new wells, and recompletion and stimulation programs• 24 years with SLB across the North Sea, Middle East, and North America, contributing to simulation software support, integrated field development and optimization projects, and advisor-level completions and production technology applicationsI am known for collaborative technical leadership, cross-team alignment, and structured decision-driven workflows in complex, multidisciplinary projects.
