I have more than fourty years of experience as a Petroleum Geologist, including a diverse background and understanding of techniques from both mature basins and undeveloped areas. I have worked on both surface and subsurface facies analysis, interpretation of depositional environments, stratigraphic modeling, and reservoir characterization. I have experience with seismic and well logs (sequence stratigraphy, evaluation, and correlation), many thousands of feet of core descriptions, and thousands of thin sections (petrography and diagenesis; thin section description, SEM and XRD analysis). I am experienced particularly in sedimentology, depositional environments, facies analysis, sequence stratigraphy, and hydrocarbon accumulations in both carbonate and clastic reservoirs, with a specific knowledge of the Middle East.
