DUAL CITIZEN (CDN / USA) — REMOTE & ON-SITE

Petroleum Geologist with a broad, interdisciplinary skill set applicable across multiple sectors and roles. Progressive experience spanning geology, cartography, drafting, and project coordination, with a proven ability to operate effectively within corporate, regulatory, and public-sector frameworks in both domestic and international settings. Performs well in high-pressure, competitive environments and is committed to safety and scientific integrity.


TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

Wellsite Geology & Geosteering Specialist: On-site and remote, real-time geological support and geosteering operations contributing to multiple regional and operator drilling records, frequently operating in structurally complex, stratigraphically ambiguous, and overpressured sub-basin settings.

Multi-Basin Exposure: Extensive wellsite geology and geosteering experience across major North American basins including the WCSB, Williston, Powder River, DJ, Eagle Ford, Delaware, and Permian, with additional exploration and production exposure in the North Viking Graben (North Sea).

Exploration and Production Background: Formal training and applied experience in conventional exploration and production techniques including petrophysical mapping, seismic interpretation, DST analysis, decline curve analysis, and volumetric assessment, with strong integration of geoscience and engineering datasets.
