EMPLOYMENT HISTORY
Sr. Staff Husky Energy Calgary, AB
Geologist 2008- 2012
• Developed Valhalla Doe CK pool, proposed two HZ well, drilled two joint venture wells
• Achieved advanced understanding of Montney formation characteristics which was expressed by
- A number of changes to some current general concepts.
- Made sound recommendations, observations and predictions
- Reduced risk by providing a more realistic and reliable data for GIP, RF, and flow rates
• Implemented new approach to Montney evaluation methods by defining the producing units in the area and focusing on their geological characteristics. (Groundbirch, Sinclair)
• Performed regional geological/geophysical evaluations and business opportunity evaluations in order to identify acreage acquisition opportunities for unconventional gas play in NE BC
• Recognised two new tight gas play exploration opportunities
• Drilled three joint venture tight gas wells
Consultant Pavilion Energy Corp. Vancouver, BC
2008- 2008
• Evaluated geological risks and rewards for unconventional gas play in NE BC
