About
I am Peter, a dedicated Reservoir Engineer with a strong focus on advancing digital solutions in the subsurface domain. Currently based in Stavanger, Norway, I hold a Master’s degree in Reservoir Engineering and a Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering from Montanuniversität Leoben.
With extensive experience in leading projects related to ensemble-based reservoir modeling and digitalization integration, I am passionate about driving innovation and technical excellence. My work involves collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and sharing my findings through industry presentations and publications.
When I am not immersed in engineering projects, you can find me cycling, running, or editing videos. These activities bring me great joy and fulfillment. I love the thrill of road cycling, the camaraderie of group rides, and the challenge of long-distance events. In running, I am constantly driven to achieve faster times and better performances. My enthusiasm for continuous improvement extends to my athletic pursuits and my creative hobby of video editing, where I enjoy capturing and crafting stories through visual media.
