- Evaluating prospectivity of the Shallow Offshore of Suriname as team leader for Staatsolie, using Paleoacan, Petrel and REP software
- Play fairway analysis and prospect mapping of BG/BHP acreage offshore Atlantic Trinidad and Tobago, using Paleoscan , Petrel and proprietary seabed cores and biostratigraphy
- - Mapped LeClerc-1 prospect in Paleoscan/Petrel on BG/BHP’s offshore Trinidad and Tobago acreage, leading to the first of several multi-TCF gas discoveries in 2016
- - Managed and interpreted data from a seabed coring project and high resolution biostratigraphy project with a total contract value of US$ 1.1 million, allowing the refinement of the PSM model and stratigraphy for the deepwater Plio-Pleistocene turbidite play offshore SE Trinidad
- Evaluated new venture opportunities in the region, including farm-ins and the Demerara Plateau licensing round, in the Guyana / Suriname Basin
- Acted as lead geologist on two operated blocks, including the drilling of seven explorations, leading to three gas discoveries, in the Gulf of Paria, western Trinidad
- Acted as project and operations geologist on the giant Cusiana Field discovery well in the Eastern Cordillera fold belt (Colombia), including training and mentoring junior staff
- Conducted seismic facies analysis of Cretaceous submarine fan plays offshore Cote d’Ivoire
- Acted as team leader in the evaluation of prospectivity around Paladin’s Montrose-Arbroath facilities in the UK Central North Sea, resulting in the Brechin Paleocene oilfield, brought on stream within 13 months of discovery
- Coordinated the Cook Field Development Plan in the UK Central Graben, which delivered 20 000 bopd from a single well
- Planned the HPHT 23/26a-21 well, including the pore pressure prediction, which was drilled £7 million under budget
- Gained PRINCE2 project management qualification
- Conducted numerous dataroom, farm-in and licence round evaluations leading to acreage capture, including Norway's APA Round (Butch / Cassidy discoveries), Eastern Cordillera of Colombia (Volcanera Field)
- Set up and presented in several farm-out & disposal datarooms, including the sale PetroCanada's Trinidad assets, now being developed by Shell.
