I have been a General Manager of North American Field Services since 1/3/2012 until present. Prior to taking this position I was a field supervisor with MI SWACO . My previous position includes 32 years experience as a Mud Engineer. Having worked many challenging wells with abnormal pressures, lost circulation, and stuck pipe issues has given me the knowledge to ensure successful outcomes for the operator. On many occasions I have dealt with well problems not typical of the area that have been drilled. My experience has given me the abilities to work with what is given and perform under difficult situations.
