Knowledge and applicable experience with the Geographix program.

Consultant/Operations Geologist at Newfield Exploration MC

Geo-steered 100+ horizontal wells in the Woodford Shale and correlated over 200 more for other outside operators.

Geo-steering oversight and bedding interpretation in the Woodford Shale to minimize exposure to geo hazards, reduce drilling costs, and achieve geologic objectives.

Worked with Petra, Design CAD, and PI Dwights, to correlate, geosteering Woodford horizontals, land curves to natural gas producing wells.

In charge of locating OBO (operated by others) well data, importing the data into Petra, and then correlating the gamma for use as an offset.
