Objective:
Seeking to secure a position with a well established mud logging organization where I can grow and maximize my mud logging experience.
Career Summary:
I am a Mud logger with almost 7 years collectively in the oil and gas industry, almost 5 of which as a mud logger. I started out as a night hand/trainee in 2005 and thru hard work and dedication gained several promotions, eventually earning a position as the lead – day tour logger. I have worked both 1 man and 2 man logging operations, and logged wells in many different fields and areas. At times I have been forced (due to lay offs and economic circumstances) to seek employment in other industries such as retail, but have been lucky thus far, and have always been able to return to doing what I truly enjoy – mud logging.
