  Adjunct Geology Professor

  Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi

  Camarillo

  California

  - Used subsurface data

  well logs

  dipmeter data

  and FMI borehole image logs to interpret faulting in the Santa Ynez Unit

  Offshore California.\n- Created database of fault cut values

  fault plane dip and azimuth

  and measured depths

  and used this data to create fault trace maps

  fault plane maps

  and fault azimuth rose diagrams for use in seismic interpretation and structural mapping.\n- Performed onshore outcrop mapping and description of faulting and fracturing and correlated results with subsurface data to be used in reservoir analysis.

  and field development.\n- Created and compiled maps

  cross sections

  structural and stratigraphic framework

  as well as well log and petrophysical data to build 3D geologic models to propose well drilling locations and provide hydrocarbon volumetrics and reserves ranges.\n- Core acquisition and description and CAT scan analysis interpretation.\n- Tasked with evaluating company-wide exploration and development opportunities and prioritizing and evaluating risk. Conducted assessment and risk evaluation training of staff in Columbia
