I am currently working in the Onshore Energy Systems team. I have also worked as a Resource Assessment Specialist for the Strategic Basins team. Here I provided expertise and leadership in the integration, analysis and interpretation of multidisciplinary data to assess resources in key basin areas – in particular North Bowen Basin and Adavale Basin. I also provided high-priority drillable geological targets for a stratigraphic well in the Adavale Basin.

Working as a Senior Geologist in the conventional geoscience team, I primarily supported the onshore and offshore southern Australian assets in the Otway and Bass basins. My key responsibilities: 1) Identify, risk and conduct resource probabilistic estimations of prospects and leads – prepare and maintain prospects and leads inventories for active exploration permits; 2) Undertake geological projects and prospectivity assessments, including play fairway studies and petroleum system evaluations;… Show more Working as a Senior Geologist in the conventional geoscience team, I primarily supported the onshore and offshore southern Australian assets in the Otway and Bass basins.

Tasks also included documentation and communication to Joint Venture Partners, reporting and compliance to state and federal government and data management. Show less

Canberra, Australia

I undertook sequence stratigraphic analysis and seismic interpretation to understand the petroleum prospectivity and/or CO2 storage potential of offshore Australian basins. I analysed well and seismic data to identify and map depositional sequences/cycles, interpret stratal geometries and synthesise basin-wide sequence stratigraphic frameworks. I was Co-chief Scientist on the Petrel Sub-basin Marine Survey SOL5463 (May 2012), a 30-day marine survey that collected geophysical and physical… Show more I undertook sequence stratigraphic analysis and seismic interpretation to understand the petroleum prospectivity and/or CO2 storage potential of offshore Australian basins.

I was Co-chief Scientist on the Petrel Sub-basin Marine Survey SOL5463 (May 2012), a 30-day marine survey that collected geophysical and physical datasets, including sub-bottom profiler, over the Petrel Sub-basin (Bonaparte Basin). I have participated in two other marine surveys that collected geophysical and physical datasets over the western and northern margins of Australia. Show less
