Docket: 2020-010Cause: 470-02Exhibit: #15
Conceptual Drainage Patterns
40-acre development pattern 2 wells per 40-acre development pattern
Due to the inclined elliptical drainage which is related to the orientation andheterogeneity of the regional and local stress profile, the 40-acre developmentpattern results in stranded resources. Conversely, the strategic alignment ofwells in a 20-acre development pattern captures a larger portion of the originaloil in place.
Increased Well Density Helps Maximize Recovery

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
BAINBRIDGE UINTA LLC 2018-2020Director of Reservoir EngineeringPerform all Reservoir Engineering functions to support company. Responsibilities include reserves cacluationsand bookings; as well as, development plans, for the Three Rivers Field in Utah. Evaluated, proposed and helpedexecute nine well 2018 DUC completion program. Evaluated, proposed and helped execute eight well 2019 Drilland Complete program. Monitor and optimize production throughout the field. Prepared company reservereports.TANOS EXPLORATION LLC 2018Senior Reservoir EngineerProvided Reservoir Engineering support as a member of a multi-disciplinary team responsible for fields in theArkLaTex Region. Performed RTA on shallow low reservoir pressure vertical wells; as well as, high reservoirpressure horizontal wells. Calculated reserves for quarterly reserves report, generated capital projects, andproposed horizontal developments for both a low permeability and non-conventional reservoir.
DENBURY RESOURCES INC. 2000 - 2017Senior Reservoir Engineer - Development & DesignProposed Field Development Plans for fields in the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain Regions that involvedprimary, waterflood, and EOR/CO2 recoveries which were successfully executed. Studied the fields, generatedcapital projects, and engaged asset team throughout the process for current field enhancements anddevelopment plans to improve the existing production. Generated budgets, long-range planning forecasts, andeconomic evaluations to assess the economic viability of these projects.� Created field development plan for Cranfield Field in Mississippi. Examined past and present
production/injection data. Reviewed geological data and cross-sections with geologist. Performed diagnosticson historical phases of development and recognized performance was tied to history. Determined optimaldevelopment for rest of field. Forecasted production; performed economics, and documented analysis.
� Provided RE support to multi-disciplinary team to compose field development plan for Phase 5 & 6 of the BellCreek Field in Montana. Studied the poor performances of first 4 phases of CO2 development. Recognizedboth areal and vertical heterogeneity dominated performance. Redesigned Phase 5 & 6 to floodsequentiallyto improve the conformance and increase value.

DENBURY RESOURCES INC. (Continued)
Senior Reservoir Engineer – North DivisionReservoir Management for tight waterflood in Hertzog Draw Field in Wyoming. Searched literature anddetermined analogous field, gathered data and developed a long-range plan for enhanced oil recovery in thesweet spot of the field. Sub-divided field and recognized the need to develop the tight fringe area of the reservoir.Formulated development plan with horizontal wells. Proposed and gained approval for an initial 6 well package toassess the opportunity. Contributed $100 million net present value to the field.
Senior Reservoir Engineer – East & West Region� Reservoir Management of Oyster Bayou Field, Texas. Built, then studied, the depleted oil field historical data
set. Developed a plan to flood the field with CO2 and unitized company’s first field in Texas, which includedtestifying before the Railroad Commission. Devised a plan and gained approval for a CO2 flood which metgenerated peek rate projections of 5000 bopd and ended up being a Texas crown jewel for the company.
� Determined gas development and depletion plans for multiple fields in the Jackson Dome Complex, inMississippi, to meet supply demands for CO2. Studied reservoirs and reviewed geological & geophysical datawith teammates to propose both infill and exploratory wells. Calculated and managed reserves which resultedin proved reserve growth from 4.5 to 6.7 TSCF. Analyzed the reservoirs flow capacity and determined that thewells were the limiting point. Convinced management to change completion strategy. Resulted in a wellcapacity increase from 30 to 100+ mmscfpd. Grew total production from 500 mmscfd to over 1 bscfpd.
