Ahmed N. Alfahdi
Mechanical Engineer | Oil & Gas Trainee | Software & Reverse Engineering Enthusiast
About Me
I am a mechanical engineer with hands-on experience in the Oil & Gas industry—specifically upstream (Wireline & Tubing Conveyed Perforation, TCP) and midstream (pipeline) sectors. My practical background includes both field operations (TCP/Wireline support, pipeline integrity) and design/simulation tasks. Notably, I used Ansys extensively for my Bachelor's degree thesis, as well as SolidWorks for technical design and modeling.
Outside of engineering, I'm passionate about software development and reverse engineering, frequently using automation, scripting, and process optimization to streamline tasks and deepen my technical knowledge.
Skills & Expertise
- Wireline & TCP Engineering: Logging support, TCP string assembly, fiber-optic perforation readiness, and explosive materials handling and operations.
- Pipeline Engineering: Hydrotesting and NDT coordination, design calculations (B31.4/B31.8), buckling/buoyancy assessments, alignment drawings, integrity reviews.
- Engineering Software: Ansys (simulation), SolidWorks (CAD/CAM/CAE).
- Software & Automation: PowerShell, Bash, PLC programming, SBC prototyping; enthusiastic about software development and reverse engineering.
- Systems & Documentation: Windows/Linux, Docker, documentation (LaTeX/Markdown/Typst).
- Safety: H2S & SO2 entry permit; ISO 45001:2018 (2024 certified).
