Dynamic energy geoscientist with more than 30 years’ experience in basins across Australia, the Asia Pacific region and the Atlantic conjugate margin. World class technical capability in regional basin studies, reservoir geology and diagenesis, charge and trap integrity evaluations for conventional oil and gas and emerging New Energies including geological storage of CO2 and evaluation of low temperature geothermal opportunities. An adept prospect generator with strong seismic interpretation capability and a solutions mindset with a clear business impact focus, I have excellent written and spoken communication skills. Experienced in mature, emerging and frontier basins, both offshore and onshore, with a proven track record in revealing new plays to drive value creation through delivery of attractive prospect inventories. Highly qualified with a Masters degree in Geothermal Systems and an award winning PhD in Petroleum Systems and Trap Integrity Analysis I have published widely on diverse topics including petroleum and geothermal systems, trap integrity, petrophysics, volcanic systems, geochemistry and regional geology. I have been co-inventor on two UK and US patents in specialised oilfield technology.My blend of experience split between E&P companies and R&D organisations provides a unique skill-set that can be applied across a range of enterprises to deliver business focussed solutions driven by the application of new technology to established and nascent opportunities.
