Proofread, Editing, and Analyze Academic Paper for final defence with all important detail focued to tital and main objective
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
Project Title
Master’s Thesis Finalization – AHP TOPSIS with Survey Data, Formatting, Visuals – Graduation Ready
Project Overview
I am seeking a highly experienced academic professional to finalize my Master of Engineering thesis titled:
"A Qualitative Analysis of Integrity Management Practices for SAGD Well Pads"
This thesis is already drafted and includes a completed industry survey. I now need it elevated to professional, defense-ready quality with a full Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) section, enhanced formatting, proper visuals, and citation integrity throughout.
Scope of Work
1. Improve Academic Writing and Clarity
* Polish writing to be concise, focused, and academically sound
* Remove repetition and strengthen logic between sections
* Ensure consistency in voice, tone, and structure
* Final product must be suitable for graduate-level defense
2. AHP Analysis – Based on Survey Pairwise Data
Using real survey responses, perform:
* Pairwise comparison of key failure modes
Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)
Thermal Fatigue
Caprock Integrity Issues
ESP Cable Failures
Instrumentation Failures
Operator Errors
Scaling and Blockage
* Create an AHP pairwise comparison matrix
* Calculate priority weights using the Geometric Mean method
* Perform a Consistency Ratio (CR) check
* Present APA-styled tables and brief interpretations
3. TOPSIS Analysis – Based on Cost and Criticality
Use the survey to rank the effectiveness of mitigation strategies based on:
Criteria
* Cost of implementation
* Frequency of failure
* Severity of failure
* Environmental risk
* Long-term sustainability
Alternatives
* Regular NDT Inspection
* Predictive Tools (SCADA, sensors)
* Improved Coating and Insulation
* Operator Training and SOPs
* Workplace Culture Improvement or Digital Recordkeeping
Tasks
* Build the normalized decision matrix
* Apply AHP-derived weights
* Identify ideal and negative ideal solutions
* Calculate relative closeness (Ci\*)
* Provide full TOPSIS rankings with tables, charts, and commentary
4. Formatting, Structure and Polish
* Correct all chapter and section numbering
* Add page numbers
* Remove all table and figure borders
* Ensure consistent fonts, spacing, and headings
* Apply proper table and figure formatting
* Use APA 7 citation style throughout
* Add a missing Chapter Outline section at the end of Chapter 1
* Update Table of Contents, List of Figures, and List of Tables
5. Visual and Graphic Enhancements
* Upgrade or redraw technical diagrams such as SAGD schematics and flowcharts
* Create clear, professional AHP and TOPSIS visuals
* Ensure all graphics are high-resolution, properly labeled, and ready for use in Word and PDF
6. Academic Ethics and Citations
* All models, figures, frameworks, and external data must be cited in APA 7 style
* No plagiarism will be accepted
* Survey-based data must be transparently and ethically presented
* All analysis must be traceable and reproducible
Deliverables
* Final thesis in Word document format
* PDF version ready for submission
* Complete Excel workbook for AHP and TOPSIS
* Folder with all visuals and figures
* Optional tracked changes version if needed
Ideal Freelancer
* Academic editing experience, especially in technical or engineering theses
* Proven skills in AHP, TOPSIS, and MCDM
* Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and visuals
* Familiarity with APA citation standards
* Experience with oil and gas or SAGD projects is a bonus
Timeline
* Complete delivery within 5 to 7 days
* Regular progress updates required
To Apply
Please include
* A brief overview of your academic and technical writing experience
* Examples of previous AHP or TOPSIS projects or MCDM work
* A sample of a previously formatted thesis if available
* Confirmation that you follow citation and formatting standards and can work with survey-based data
Note
This thesis is for my final graduation defense. The content is ready. I need your expertise to ensure it is professionally presented, technically accurate, and academically credible.
