 Expansion
of C&C's Geoscience Team
Mar
2004 - Houston, Texas
C&C Reservoirs welcomes
Dr John Anderson, Dr Jose Guzman, Mr
Richard Footitt and Dr Suvimol Maingarm
as new members of its expanding geoscience
team. These additional expertise to C&C
Reservoirs will surely help meet
the increased needs of our growing
E&P clients worldwide in new product
development and customer support services.
Dr John Anderson
received his B.Sc. (1987) in Applied
Geology from Plymouth University (UK) and
his Ph.D. (1991) in Geology from Kingston
University (UK). Having worked for AGIP
UK Central North Sea and New Initiatives
Groups (1991-1995) and Ranger Oil Angola
and Cote D'Ivoire Teams (1996-2003),
respectively, Dr. Anderson has extensive
experience in exploration and appraisal,
ranging from basin analysis, play evaluation,
prospect generation, risk/reserve assessment,
to appraisal well drilling proposal.
Dr. Anderson joined C&C Reservoirs in
2003 as a Senior Geoscientist responsible
for compilation of new field evaluation
reports and updating of existing fields.
Dr Guzman received his Ph.D. in Geology from
the University
of Texas at Austin in 1999; his
M.S. in Ciencias Geologicas from the Universidad
Central de Venezuela in 1992;
and his B.A. in Geology from the University
of Colorado at Boulder in 1980.
He has over 20 years of experience in research
and application of clastic stratigraphy and
sedimentology, reservoir geology, and advanced
subsurface geology in the Eastern and Maracaibo
Basins of Venezuela. This has been gained
through working for Lagoven
S.A., Gemipet C.A., PDVSA Intevep
and the Bureau
of Economic Geology at the University
of Texas at Austin. Dr. Guzman
joined C&C
Reservoirs as a Senior Geoscientist,
where, undoubtedly, Dr Guzman's knowledge
of S. American petroleum geology is a great
asset to C&C
Reservoirs team.
Mr. Richard (Dick) Footitt received his B.Sc.
(1975) in Geology from London University, UK. He joined Robertson
Research International in 1979 and has worked as an international
consultant in the oil and gas industry for over 23 years. Mr. Footitt
has extensive experience in field and prospect evaluations as well
as petroleum basin evaluation. He has been heavily involved in reserve
assessment of assets of over 20 UK and US companies, including over
60 UK and Dutch fields. On the exploration side, he has travelled extensively
and contributed to evaluation studies of Ghadames and Sbaa basins,
Algeria; Taylorsville Basin, USA; Meleiha Concession, Western Desert,
Egypt; Iran; Syria; Black Sea, Ukraine; Sea of Okhotsk, Russia; Vietnam-Indonesia
offshore disputed zone; offshore Brazil; Ucayali Basin, Peru; Irish
Rockall as well as North Sea. Mr. Footitt is the co-author and joint-presenter
of a training course entitled 'Basin Analysis and Play Fairway Definition'.
He has also acted as the Technical Advisor to the Polish Bureau of
Concessions, National Power, H.M. Health and Safety Executive and British
Nuclear Fuels. Mr. Footitt joined C&C Reservoirs in 2003
as a Senior Geoscientist responsible for compilation of new field evaluation
reports and updating of existing fields.
Dr Maingarm received her B.Sc. (1993) in Geology from the University
College, London and M.Sc. (1994) in Applied Structural Geology
and Rock Mechanics from Imperial College,
London. In 2000, she was granted her Ph.D. from the University
of Wales, Aberystwyth for her work on the structural and tectono-stratigraphic
evolution of the Central Irish Sea Basin. The study was in an active exploration
area of BG Group and the project formed a part of the initial stages of
delineating the basin structure and evolution history. Since then she has
worked briefly for Robertson Research International
Ltd as a Processing Geophysicist within the Land Processing
Department, where she was mainly involved in processing Middle-Eastern
data. Before joining C&C Reservoirs,
she worked for PGS Reservoirs (UK)
Ltd as a Geophysicist. At PGS she
formed a part of the original 'Mega-Merge' team, which aims to merge and
interpret 3D seismic data in basins around the world. Dr Maingarm joined C&C
Reservoirs in 2003 as a Customer Support Geoscientist, initially
based in the Beijing office but since 2004, has been supporting C&C
Reservoirs' customers in Houston.
