He is a Well Completions and Interventions Engineer with over 40 years of experience in both completions and interventions.  He began his oilfield career as a slickline operator, working for several vendor companies before accepting a position with BP as a well service supervisor.  A move to the office followed where, as a well intervention engineer, he was responsible for planning well intervention activities for numerous offshore wells.  A role as completion engineers came next.
