BIOGRAPHY
The President and Chief Geologist of the
company is Dr. Gerry Reinson, Ph.D., P. Geol. Dr. Reinson
holds Bachelors and Masters degrees in Geology from the University
of Saskatchewan, and a Ph.D. in Sedimentology from Australian
National University. Dr. Reinson has over 35 years experience
in the fields of petroleum geology, environmental geology
and marine geology, having worked in both the public and
private sectors as a research scientist, manager and petroleum
explorationist.
His work experience includes employment
with both major and junior oil companies and the Geological
Survey of Canada. Dr. Reinson has been consulting for 26
years, either independently or associated with a larger
integrated firm. His expertise lies in the fields of clastic
and carbonate sedimentology as applied to petroleum exploration
and exploitation, and environmental geology. He has published
extensively and regularly conducts field and laboratory
courses,
and technical seminars, primarily in the areas of clastic
sedimentology and facies characterization of petroleum reservoirs.
Dr. Reinson is a registered Professional
Geologist with the Association
of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of
Alberta (APEGGA). He is an active member of the Canadian
Society of Petroleum Geologists (CSPG), American
Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG), and the Society
for Sedimentary Geology (SEPM).
