Pathways to Net-zero, Alternative Energy Systems for Drilling and Completions Operations

The research will involve identifying greenhouse gas reduction options for the oil and gas sector’s drilling and completions operations. Scope 1 emissions (i.e., emissions directly from operations) and scope 2 emissions (emissions from utility supplied power) will be tackled.
This will be done by looking into using utility supplied power to operate drilling rigs, using natural gas to power turbines which will provide electricity for fracturing fleets, utilizing natural gas powered pumps for fracturing, and design and installation of a mini solar farm to supplement electricity on site. These reduction options if implemented will help the organization on their path to achieve net-zero scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2035.

Design and implementation of behavioual interventions allowing individuals to critically evaluate online misinformation consistently

Online misinformation is a threat to Canada’s democratic processes, economic activities and public health. Individuals need to be empowered to critically evaluate the online information they consume in a consistent manner, otherwise, they will fall victim to manipulation, deception, polarization, radicalization, etc, efforts from malicious cyber actors. The intern will review the latest findings from behavioural science and incorporate those to design alternative conceptual solutions that can consistently nudge people to think critically about digital media until critical thinking becomes their second nature. The intern will prototype the best solution and gather feedback for further improvement. The project aligns with the Cansbrige Fellowship’s high-level goal to strengthen the business engagement between Canada and Asia by inculcating critical thinking to business-related information among members of the Canadian business communities.

Business and Data Analyst

This project will be looking to work with the Cansbridge Fellowship to work on solutions for food waste and innovative solutions for waste management today. I will be working on this project in conjunction with a Singapore-based startup as a case study to work on waste management and the reduction of food wastes in the existing flow between suppliers and customers. I will be placed as a specialist for data analytics to provide insights into the business and connect with stakeholders to provide for strategies that can be optimized for the business model going into the future. Moreover, I will be placed in a team under the project manager to ensure I am able to provide clear analysis into their existing processes and will be then responsible for providing more clientele in service lines which are revealed to be the most impactful when pursuing.
The partner organization will be supporting this project and will look to provide an internationally connected project for a clear positive impact on the Canadian region. Moreover, they will be operating to provide the resources for me as the student to succeed in my deliverables for this project. This will look to extend their capacity to support more innovation projects and fellows that are looking to fulfill their entrepreneurial spirits!
