I’m Maria Gabriela Zambrano, a Gas Engineer
with over 10 years of international experience
in the design of wellheads, Mudline Systems, and Xmas Trees for both onshore and offshore projects. My expertise lies in bridging the gap between technical design and field operations—turning blueprints into actionable procedures that ensure safety, efficiency, and reliability.
I was trained in Venezuela—one of the world’s largest oil reserve nations and a global hub for petroleum engineering. I then built my career across Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, and the United States, working with leading companies such as TechnipFMC, Weatherford, ENI, Shell, Petrobras, YPF, Ecopetrol, and EOG.
