Summary

Master's degree in petroleum engineering and geo-resources, and a bachelor's degree in earth sciences (geophysics and geology option). My skills include geological exploration studies, geophysical prospecting, log analysis (drilling, coring), data processing and geographic information systems, as well as a good command of 2D and 3D computer modelling tools, which I intend to put to good use in the company's development.
