Basin Operations Consortium (Offshore Newfoundland):
- Wellsite supervision of offshore logging operations, formation evaluation analyses, MDT programming and implementation, VSP data acquisition.
Western Canada:
- Detailed petrophysical analyses of new wells in both clastic and carbonate reservoirs. Foothills deep well carbonate basin evaluations and multi-well petrophysical evaluation of existing fields.
(Offshore Newfoundland): multi-well evaluation for reservoir and hydrocarbon development potential.
- In addition review and evaluate new wireline and LWD technologies and analysis techniques and make recommendations for their application where suitable.
- Taught the Suncor Introductory Log Analysis course to new hire earth scientists, engineers and technologists.
Major Independent E&P
Petrophysics and Operations Geology 1994 – 1996
- Responsible for acquisition of well site geological data and well log evaluation for all Company interest wells drilled in Canada.
- Supplied detailed petrophysical analyses to project geologists, production and reservoir engineers, including net pay, porosity, permeability, water contacts and reserves calculations for all Company interest wells.
- Recommended well testing and completion strategies to senior management.
- Initiated regional petrophysical studies to assist in carbonate and clastic prospect generation.
- Identified additional drilling opportunities in undeveloped secondary targets for several existing fields resulting in substantial additional gas reserves.
Major E&P
Supervisor, Geologic Operations 1989 – 1994
- Supervised geologic operations team. Responsible for the planning, acquisition and distribution of geologic and petrophysical data on all Canada operated and company interest wells. (Typically more than 150 well locations per year)
