Plano

• Geoscientist team member that worked on OOIP, unitization, CO2 flood design, implementation, and reservoir management. Log analysis of all modern logs. Did the preliminary structural geophysical interpretation of.
• Key member of a technical team that met time and budget goals while executing Oyster Bayou Field Unit CO2 flood. Unit went from producing 100 BOPD to over 7000 BOPD and currently nearing 7 million CO2 BO.
• Architect of the phase 2 where well spacing and placement was based on formation analysis and mapped sand channels, which were validated by data from 25 new wells. Results exceeded economic projections by 150%.
• Saved Denbury over $2 million in phase 2 drilling program by eliminating a string of casing. With facts, I convinced management the risk of shallow gas was non-existent. Also stopped a proposed directional program.
• Formulated a comprehensive field wide formation evaluation plan for each of the phases of drilling Oyster Bayou to achieve good data distribution at low cost; including a whole core, increasing the certainty of.
• Initiated a mentoring program taking new engineers and geologists to the wellsite to understand how open-hole logging should be managed to control costs, operation risks, safety, and data quality.

Dallas

• Applied geological or petrophysical skills sets to projects as directed by exploration manager. Accomplishments
• Worked on properties in the Uinta basin in Utah. Elevated their play from statistical to targeted by correlating production to petrophysical facies.
• Started a regional petrophysical evaluation of the Niobrara. Accelerated the process by multiple tech doing different steps in log analysis routine.
• Involved in evaluation of the New Albany Shale play in Kentucky including wellsite supervision of logging and core acquisition. Coordinated the analysis of the whole core.

Dallas

• Initiated economic action on existing properties, mainly thru workovers or infield drilling. Had to be self-directed team members and managers were in Houston or Austin. Performed all the wellsite duties during.
• Developed a ranked workover spreadsheet for all wells in area of responsibility in NE Brooks Co. Texas. Reviewed with team showing supporting documentation. Caused two wells to be drilled with 50% economic success in.

Wynn Crosby Energy, Weinman Geoscience & Others

• Worked for clients to make geologic maps, seismic interpretation, or log analysis in their offices on their workstations. Wynn Crosby and Weinman Geoscience were my principal clients.Accomplishments
• Drilled a 200 BOPD well in the Franklin Unit of the Sho-Vel-Tum Field in the Ardmore Basin in Oklahoma for Wynn Crosby. This doubled the production of the mature waterflood. I figured out the complex faulting in a.
• Successfully marketed my exploration idea that Wynn Crosby promoted, yet they kept no working interest. Also convinced Burlington Resources to assume Wynn Crosby’s WI while a well was drilling in exchange for ORRI..

Dallas

• Worked in asset team setting doing all the normal functions of a geoscientist. Geophysical interpretation was done on landmark UNIX platform. Accomplishments
• Responsible for Martinville field in Mississippi over complex salt dome. Identified drillsites and workovers thru the integration of a 3-D survey with geological and petrophysical data. The team increased daily average.
• Selected to work on the international Tunisia team because of my operational and formation evaluation expertise.
• Promoted to team leader of the Oklahoma Ardmore Basin team. Met the company challenge to find gas prospects in oil prone basin. Drilled 3 wells with a combined IP over 6 MMCFD.
