REPRESENTATIVE PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS
PROJECT MANAGEMENT SKILLS DELIVERING RESULTS
As a T H Hill QA/QC Project Manager, I was made responsible for the tool qualification program for Cimarex Energy
and their 22 drilling rigs in West Texas and Oklahoma. My predecessor failed to update them on critical field
discoveries or provide timely/actionable activity summaries. I promised immediate action, and delivered on my
promise. In less than one quarter, my rapid, accurate communication and pin-point data analysis saved them over
$600,000 in mitigated specialty tool discrepancies. I also implemented a program limiting drill pipe connection
repairs that will save a yearly average of $500,000. A Cimarex executive later informed me that, because of my
performance, they did not cancel our contract.
During the 2014 oil price crash, T H Hill maintained our business relationship with RKI Exploration and Production
due to the strong rapport I had established with them as QA/QC Project Manager. I earned the reputation of a cost-
saving troubleshooter when I implemented casing inspection standards that mitigated recurring mechanical failure
problems that had cost them over $1,000,000 the year before.
As RKI lowered their rig count to just one rig in Wyoming, I designed a support plan that conveyed the criticality of
keeping a dedicated T H Hill technician in place to help reduce costs associated to non-productive time caused by
failed or dysfunctional oil tools. This support plan helped RKI executives appreciate the value of our services,

enabling our company to net an additional $100,000 in revenue at a time where we had already lost many
important customers due to the bust. At a financially critical time, I was credited with validating the value of
maintaining discretionary services like QA/QC support.
