SPE Romanian Section

From 1996 to 2005, Mr. Dragomir Alexandru has worked as researcher in Institute for Research and Technology (I.C.P.T.) Campina – Prahova. In this period he led different teams for several research or non-research projects including Frac-Pack Completion implementation (1998 – 2000).

Mr. Alexandru Dragomir has a significant contribution in perfecting Step Down Test procedure and results interpretations prior to propped stimulation job executions and the implementation of multistage stimulation completion technologies in Romania and Europe.

Starting 2011, he is the Sand Control & Stimulation Manager and since 2015 the Head of Center of Excellence in Stimulation for OMV.
He is owner of the New Technology Program and coordinator of Eco-Innovation Project in OMV Petrom. The first project have as scope to test and apply new technologies and the second to find cleaner and more efficient solutions for running oil and gas business.

Alexandru is the winner of SPE Completion Optimization and Technology regional award for South, Central & East Europe Region in 2012 and 2021.

During his professional development, Alexandru Dragomir published as the main author and co-author several SPE papers focused on well stimulation.

From 2018 to 2020 Alexandru Dragomir was SPE Romanian chairperson. During this period many events have been organized and work done by student chapters was recognized by SPE international with many excellence awards.

Ioana Mitrea is a geological engineer. She graduated with a bachelor's in Petroleum Geology from the Petroleum-Gas University of Ploiesti, followed by a master's degree in Reservoir Engineering from the same University.
She is a reservoir geologist working with OMV Petrom since 2011, having experience across the onshore and offshore Romania basins, in multidisciplinary approach of project maturations, for development fields. With an insight into reservoir descriptions using 3D modeling, she is part of the Field Re-development Projects Department handling offshore projects.

Gabrijel serves as the Membership chair of SPE Romanian Section, Geothermal Technical Section program chair and leads the SPEcial Geothermal Talks in the effort of expanding geothermal education along with many collaborators across Europe and beyond. He is also part of the core team of the SPE Europe Energy Geohackathon and supports completion efforts through ATCE program committee and GEODE completion task force.

Through his work, Gabrijel is responsible for design, implementation and analysis of completion projects across various settings, including oil, gas and geothermal projects. He has extensive experience through completion and stimulation projects offshore and onshore, conventional and unconventional, in the USA, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Romania, Hungary and Oman.

Gabrijel currently focuses on geothermal energy, particularly in Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) and superhot rock geothermal reservoir creation. His work in this field involves the planning, design, and implementation of advanced completion techniques aimed at maximizing heat extraction and extending the operational life of geothermal reservoirs. He is also involved in developing technology roadmaps that enable the practical application of superhot rock geothermal energy, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the industry.

Marius is a bilingual Petroleum Engineer holding a Bachelor of Science in Petroleum Engineering from the Petroleum-Gas University of Ploiesti. He furthered his education as a recipient of the OMV Scholarship, earning a Master of Science in Drilling and Completion Engineering from Montan University Leoben.

He has extensive experience as an officer in the Student Chapter and Romanian Section and is currently serving as Program Support.

He presently works as a Drilling Performance Engineer at tde in Austria. In his daily tasks, he monitors drilling activities with a focus on key findings and customer satisfaction.

He is continuously working on his personal development and has completed five Erasmus+ mobility programs. His most recent hobby is riding a motorcycle.
