Lead the successful development and divestment of multiple projects for $344M for an Australian public companyHighlights of Key Achievements: • Acquired, developed, and divested a 25,000-acre upstream energy project in the Eagle Ford Shale in McMullen County, TX; the project sold for $200M achieving a 2.8x multiple on invested capital and a 35% premium per acre compared to other Eagle Ford transactions; a retained royalty interest was subsequently sold for $10M• Accumulated 30,000-acres within the Permian Basin successfully developing the project with 35 vertical oil and gas wells with associated infrastructure, producing 2,500 barrels of oil per day proving reserves of 12M barrels of oil; a portion of the position was sold for $134M representing a 2.1x multiple on invested capital• Developed and presented all technical and financial information in successful debt and equity raisings totaling over $250M inclusive of senior secured debt facilities and direct equity placements.

Principle geological evaluator, responsible for screening all prospects for technical and economic merit. By actively engaging generators, brought hundreds of deals to Camden. Highlights of Key Achievements• Led all geologic operations on over 30 producing Camden-operated wells and all wells that were drilling. Design geologic evaluations and well logging and coring programs, provide input for recompletions, perform quick-look petrophysical analysis for pipe setting decisions and communicating operational issues to partners.• Designed field development plans and annual company reserve reports. Kept all geological databases evergreen; performed detailed log correlation and seismic interpretation on existing assets as well as potential assets. Performed decline curve analysis as well P/Z analysis on producing properties.

Served as risking and volumetric lead for Deep Shelf Gas group. Performed probabilistic volumetric evaluations on entire lead inventory, risked inventory by assigning probability of success factors and managed entire group portfolio of over 100 Gulf of Mexico shelf gas prospectsHighlights of Key Achievements: • Completed prospect evaluations of over 20 Gulf of Mexico deep shelf gas prospects; work lead to the acquisition of lease sale blocks, several with material bids (>$1MM).• Conducted extensive regional study of Paleogene turbidites. Making use of limited well penetrations, coupled with regional 2-D seismic lines I was able to place the emerging play in a seismic stratigraphic framework used for downdip sand prediction. This work was used for a major capital allocation decision (> $100MM).

Master's Thesis - Identification of Petroleum Flow Units using Artificial Neural Networks, Happy Spraberry Field, Garza County, Texas

Refined geological models of the Auger Basin, Western Gulf of Mexico. Results were presented to upper management and used in Western Gulf of Mexico Lease Sale 184.

Oversaw the conversion of Paramount to a digital workplace. Trained staff to use PETRA GeoPlus in their prospect generation workflow; implemented practices and procedures still in use today.

Conducted field investigations to determine flow rates of fluids in porous media. Recommended the drilling of groundwater monitoring wells to determine the spatial and temporal position of contaminate plumes as part of the remediation process.

Assisted project geologists with the collection and interpretation of geologic data. This included monitoring volcanic activity through geophysical surveys, collection of gas samples for chromatography studies, mapping historic lava flows and sampling current lava flows.
