Background

About Tim McGowen

Excellent working knowledge of well drilling, completion, stimulation, and production technology, terminology, and configuration-Extensive experience in ESP systems design for dewatering gas wells or high GLR wells with low BHP utilizing tapered pump assemblies, shrouded configurations, gas separation devices, and VFD control programming to optimize well production as well as extend installed ESP unit operating range, longevity, reliability, and durability. Design of proprietary software to anticipate and model the composite performance of VFD amperages, voltages, and KVA loading at variable densities, unit setting depths, motor voltages, power cable configurations, and rotating speeds-Extensive quality and reliability experience in the troubleshooting, dismantle, failure analysis, and remediation of submersible systems (mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic) for aggressive and extended performance-Centrifugal pumping CO2 - excellent understanding of carbon dioxide pressure enthalpy characteristics and associated properties; conversion and interpretation of pressure/temperature coordinates to density as applies to centrifugal acceleration and resulting volumetric prerequisites of CO2 as a powered medium. Well over 300 total CO2 surface pumping systems designed and sold for liquid, dense phase, and supercritical CO2 conditions domestically and internationally. Design of proprietary software to anticipate and model the composite performance of CO2 SPS pumps at variable densities, pressures, temperatures, and rotating speeds-Excellent written and verbal technical communication, interpretation, and negotiation skills with proficiency in a host of office, technical, and engineering software-Astute multitasker with a passion for a fast paced environment. Specialties: Centrifugal Pumping CO2 CO2 Properties / Characteristics High GLR/GOR submersible well designs and operation DIFA of ESP and SPS system components as well as interpretation/remediation of failures
