Professor of Petroleum Geoscience, Director of the Energy Geoscience MSc Programmes at the University of Manchester. Director of the North Africa Research Group, funded by a consortium of international oil companies. For details of North Africa Research Group go to http://narg.org.uk.
Also co-founder of the Centre for Masters Training (CMT) in Energy Transition (www.energy-transition.co.uk)
Background: I graduated from Chelsea College, University of London with a BSc (Hons) in Geology and joined Fina as a geologist working on North Sea exploration. After 3 years I undertook a PhD at Bristol University on the Sedimentology of the Glaciogenic Permo-Carboniferous Grant Group of the Canning Basin, Western Australia. After completing my PhD. I returned to the oil industry for 10 years with Fina and later Amerada Hess, working in the UK, North Africa and S.E Asia. Working in exploration in international new ventures globally. Since 1998 I have been an academic (initially at Oxford Brookes University and since 2004 at the University of Manchester). I continue to have close links to the energyindustry, supervising funded PhDs, running the leading North Africa Reserach Group and as a consultant working with leading companies on a variety of projects.
I am a Fellow of the Geological Society (FGS), and Chartered Geologists (CGeol), a member of the AAPG, PESGB, IAS and EAGE, I am Editor in Chief of Petroleum Geoscience and of Geoenergy (both Geological Socierty of London / EAGE Journals, and on the editorial board of the and Journal of Petroleum Geology
Research: I founded the North Africa Research Group: established to undertake broad basin analysis projects in North Africa (http://www.narg.org.uk/).
Research interests:
My research interests cover a broad spectrum from basin analysis and modelling, applied clastic sedimentology (fluvial and glacial), petroleum system analysis, regional geology of North Africa and SE Asia.
