Martin F. Cohen, Ph. D.
Martin Cohen is a reservoir engineer with over twenty years experience in reservoir simulation, of which the past four have been as an independent engineering consultant. Prior to that he was employed nineteen years by Mobil Oil Corporation after receiving a B.A. degree from the University of Notre Dame, and a Ph.D. in Applied Mechanics from the California Institute of Technology. His early career was spent in developing reservoir simulators for Mobil where he made significant contributions to Pegasus, the company’s proprietary software for simulation applications worldwide. He spent four years working in Germany as a reservoir engineer where he carried out well evaluations, PVT analyses, nodal analyses, and simulation studies.
During the 1990’s while working for Mobil Oil's technical center in Dallas, Texas, Martin served as a reservoir-engineering consultant for Mobil affiliates in the U.S., Norway, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Qatar. One of his primary functions was to advise and assist engineers build simulation models and carry through their studies to completion. He assumed the lead training role in simulation at Mobil by teaching two simulation courses each year, each of which received high ratings. Martin developed field simulation models for several of Mobil's largest assets:Ubit, a 2.1 billion barrel field in Nigeria with a thirty-year history and over 110 producing wells;
Arun gas field in Indonesia with approximately 19 Tscf: Detailed compositional modeling, 100 wells, twenty-five years of history;
Qatar North Field, with over 200 Tscf: Detailed compositional model among many smaller simulation studies.
