Brisbane, Australia

• Lead a team of five, while also completing the geophysical technical work, simultaneously working 13 fields(onshore/offshore, clastic/carbonate, multiple trap types). Collaboratively optimize the development plans of.
• Built and enhanced inter-company relationships as the company's representative to numerous joint ventures. Developed workplans and budgets to meet partner requirements and successfully delivered those for blocks we.
• Go-to resource for business development opportunities developing and delivering presentations from technical level through management and executive-level
• Bettered internal goals/timelines (while earning praise for the quality of the work) – developing the project plan then leading/project managing while completing geophysical interpretation for the team’s.
• Significantly increased offshore carbonate field’s discovered resources through effective teamwork including detailed re-examination and re-interpretation of challenging well log data, building seismic inversion.
• Increased resources and project confidence through appraisal seismic acquisition and interpretation of onshore clastic field; velocity modelling, depth conversion, possible compartmentalization were biggest challenges.

Brisbane, Australia

• Lead geophysicist for multiple blocks (onshore/offshore, clastic/carbonate, multiple trap types), planning field developments, generating exploration prospects, generating prognosis and formation evaluation programs.
• Generated ~$75MM in value having successfully attracted a partner for a multiple-well farm-out producing and presenting the narrative and handling all technical correspondence with counter-parties
• Identified critical subsurface uncertainties during field development planning incorporating business drivers to recommend cost-effective appraisal and data collection activities
• Decreased capital costs and increased HSE through the introduction of new technologies and ideas in 2D seismic design/acquisition in a challenging environment
• Led discovery of a play-extending new gas field with substantial regional upside by recognizing the potential for a prospect based on sparse data, recommending and gaining approval for data acquisition, completing.
• Successfully tested new play concept resulting in a play-opening multi-zone oil & gas discovery through infill seismic design and acquisition, interpretation before recommending the drilling of the exploration well

Calgary, Canada Area & Brisbane, Australia

• Lead geophysicist for multiple onshore exploration blocks developing, managing, and completing all work plans simultaneously. Integrate geophysical results with those from other technical disciplines, then work with.
• Successful new commercial discovery less than 8 months after joining the team (a very short cycle-time) by quickly learning a new area, completing detailed data analysis and integration with the wider team then gaining.
• Laid the ground-work for future discoveries by recognizing leads and prospects, designing the forward seismic programs to de-risk, successfully gaining seismic program approvals
