Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group specializes in helping clients with the legal side of the immigration process, which includes case and petition preparation. Several years on since our establishment, we have earned a reputation for having over 25,000 case approvals. This experience has helped us learn a lot about the adjudication process, which has ultimately helped our attorney in their case preparation and strategy selection processes. We have always tried to ensure that the applications are tailored to fit the requirements of the client and USCIS norms.

For this, our team makes use of information gathered from our client’s CV and other documents, using which we build a formidable case for them. This means that we tend to pay great attention to their academic and professional qualifications. So, when a client with a D.Sc. in mechanical engineering, energy, and fluids hailing from Brazil asked us to help him with his NIW case, we first tried to find out his current employment status and area of expertise. Having found that he was a research associate working in the field of petroleum engineering, we used his publication and citation records, along with his review experience and funding information, to build his case.

We found that his multiphase flow models have significantly enhanced the efficiency and performance of petroleum operations. And they have also improved the safety of petroleum production by identifying optimally safe facilities, pumps, and equipment designs, parameters, and conditions. His research on flow instabilities like severe slugging and liquid loading has yielded key strategies and designs for preventing these dangerous production bottlenecks. So it became clear that his work was a boon for enhancing the environmental and human safety of petroleum production while maximizing flow stability and production performance.

As evidence of his contributions, his work has resulted in 7 peer-reviewed conference articles (all of them first-authored), 2 peer-reviewed journal articles (1 of them first-authored), 3 patents, and 4 patent applications. His publications have also been cited a total of 129 times according to Google Scholar, thereby demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field of petroleum engineering. He has already conducted at least 8 reviews, including reviews for international magazines of repute in his field.

Our client also obtained 4 recommendation letters from experts, excerpts from which we used in the letter. One such excerpt is quoted below:

“[Client’s] work has undeniable value for the United States. Offshore petroleum production is a major source of oil and natural gas in the nation, and the Gulf of Mexico is a leading production site in the United States. [Client’s] model promotes flow stability and enhances the yield of offshore production sites, making it essential to the United States economy.”

We are thankful to him for placing his trust in us and we wish him success in all of his future endeavors.

Resumo do Caso:

O North America Immigration Law Group é especializado em ajudar clientes com a parte legal do processo imigratório, incluindo preparação de casos e petições. Ao longo dos anos desde nossa fundação, conquistamos mais de 25.000 aprovações, construindo uma reputação sólida. Essa vasta experiência nos permitiu compreender profundamente o processo de adjudicação, o que fortaleceu a preparação dos casos e a seleção de estratégias por parte de nossos advogados. Sempre buscamos garantir que as aplicações sejam personalizadas para atender tanto às necessidades do cliente quanto às normas do USCIS.

Para isso, nossa equipe utiliza informações retiradas do currículo e demais documentos do cliente, a partir dos quais construímos um caso robusto. Isso significa que damos grande atenção às suas qualificações acadêmicas e profissionais. Assim, quando um cliente do Brasil com título de D.Sc. em engenharia mecânica, energia e fluidos procurou-nos para auxiliá-lo em seu caso NIW, começamos identificando seu status profissional atual e sua área de especialização. Ao confirmar que ele atuava como pesquisador associado na área de engenharia de petróleo, utilizamos seu histórico de publicações, citações, experiência como revisor e informações de financiamento para construir sua petição.

Verificamos que seus modelos de escoamento multifásico aprimoraram significativamente a eficiência e o desempenho das operações petrolíferas. Além disso, esses modelos também melhoraram a segurança na produção de petróleo ao identificar instalações, bombas e designs de equipamentos, parâmetros e condições ideais e seguros. Sua pesquisa sobre instabilidades de fluxo, como severe slugging e liquid loading, resultou em estratégias e designs importantes para prevenir esses gargalos perigosos na produção. Assim, tornou-se evidente que seu trabalho beneficia tanto a segurança ambiental quanto humana na produção de petróleo, ao mesmo tempo que maximiza a estabilidade do fluxo e o desempenho operacional.

Como evidência de suas contribuições, seu trabalho resultou em 7 artigos de conferência revisados por pares (todos como primeiro autor), 2 artigos de periódico revisados por pares (1 como primeiro autor), 3 patentes e 4 pedidos de patente. Suas publicações receberam 129 citações, segundo o Google Scholar, demonstrando que seu trabalho é amplamente reconhecido e utilizado no campo da engenharia de petróleo. Ele também realizou pelo menos 8 revisões, incluindo revisões para revistas internacionais de grande reputação em sua área.

Nosso cliente também obteve 4 cartas de recomendação de especialistas, trechos das quais foram incluídos na petição. Um dos trechos dizia:

“[O trabalho do Cliente] tem valor inegável para os Estados Unidos. A produção de petróleo offshore é uma das principais fontes de petróleo e gás natural do país, e o Golfo do México é um dos maiores polos de produção nos Estados Unidos. O modelo do [Cliente] promove estabilidade de fluxo e aumenta o rendimento de locais de produção offshore, tornando-o essencial para a economia dos Estados Unidos.”

Somos gratos pela confiança que ele depositou em nós e desejamos muito sucesso em todos os seus futuros empreendimentos.
