I am a geophysicist specializing in 2D /3D seismic interpretation, mapping and depth conversion for petroleum exploration, development and acreage assessment, with over 30 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry working on Australian Basins (Cooper/Eromanga, Bass, Otway, Gippsland, Bonaparte, Browse, McArthur and some in Carnarvon). I am a confident user of industry standard workstation software having most recently used the Paradigm suite with large offshore and onshore data sets. I previously used Geoframe where I was using mainly the geophysics modules. I have used Petrosys mapping software for several years. I have used Paleoscan software on several onshore and offshore projects. I was fortunate to have attended many training courses and conferences throughout my career.
