Relative Work Experience
• It is my responsibility to know every aspect of a drilling application so that I may be able to either suggest the correct existing bit or design a bit that is best suited for a specific application. I also need to be able to suggest the proper operating parameters and BHA to get the most out of every run.
• I Started with PDC Logic from the beginning of the company as the only Field Engineer. While there I played an integral role in developing our product so that we could compete in a given market. In several markets we have actually surpassed the majors in both speed and footage drilled.
• I was the senior field engineer for Ulterra from December 2006 until my departure in 2008 and at PDC Logic from 2008 till present date. This allowed me to be part of every application area that Ulterra and PDC Logic is involved, given me a working knowledge of drilling application in the Fort Worth Basin, Permian Basin, Eastern Texas, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, The Rockies, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Arkansas and the Northeast.
