Experience:

Geologist with over 22 years of experience in exploration and remote sensing with several major and independent oil companies and as a consultant. Highly skilled at merging multiple types of data to generate prospects, including satellite imagery and aerial photography. Experienced in domestic economic evaluation, mud logging and analysis, and isopaching. Geographic areas worked include the Texas Gulf coast, east Texas, Australia, India, Europe, and Africa. Proficient in Microsoft Office, CorelDraw, UNIX, Canvas, and image processing/remote sensing software.

Generated geologic data for worldwide basins from corporate and commercial sources, loaded into the UNIX system, reformatted it, performed quality control, and entered it into ARC Info data sets.

Using multiple data sources, generated prospects in the eastern shelf and Fort Worth basin. Consulted in geologic and remote sensing for petroleum and mineral exploration. Interpreted satellite and aerial photography, created base maps, and corrected topographic maps. Researched software and hardware for UNIX, PC, and Macintosh based remote sensing systems. Inventoried and stored geologic and geophysical data for a technical information center. Ordered Landsat and SPOT digital image data for remote sensing.

Interpreted Landsat SPOT and Radarsat images. Researched significant fields and basins in Australia, India, and Europe. Wrote technical reports and well summaries for databases. Generated basin and county level production trend studies and base and thematic maps. Accessed and analyzed data from an IBM mainframe using SQL searches on an Oracle database.

Analyzed Landsat MSS and TM imagery, aerial photos, and radar images for exploration. Rectified images to maps, and integrated with geological and geophysical data. Performed image processing enhancement and geological interpretation. Reviewed projects with clients and wrote technical reports of results. Supervised and trained geological personnel.

Processed, interpreted, and analyzed Landsat images for exploration using DEC PDP-11 systems. Integrated with geological and geophysical data. Wrote technical reports and supervised lab personnel.

Generated and evaluated prospects in Texas and Louisiana using subsurface and seismic data. Supervised leasing, sales to investors, prospects through drilling, well-site evaluation, log analysis, and completions.
