I thoroughly enjoy Petrophysics and find that my enthusiasm for the subject helps me to communicate petrophysical issues effectively to a wide range of audience. Now that I have retired from full-time work, I thought I'd continue this mission via YouTube. Clearly, I'm not looking to go mega-viral with these videos, I recognise that they may seem to be a bit niche, however I trust that there will be a science-curious/technical audience out there - who may appreciate alternative views and new ways of presenting subsurface geo-technical material (even if us oil industry folk are less popular these days.....the Science involved is often very interesting, and we still have a good contribution to make in helping develop a greener future!). I'm also working on putting together a 2 or 3-day teaching seminar #PetrophysicsForGeoscientists and I hope to have this ready sometime in the first half of 2027. Please feel free to contact me (at the email below) if you'd be interested in me coming to run it for you or any of your teams.
