Your Answer for Unconventional Gas Challenges

Photo by Ron Ruhoff

Tough conditions, smart solutions.The world’s traditional energy resources are becoming harder and harder to reach. We know because we have more than 30 years experience operating in challenging environments such as the North Sea. Great depths, difficult terrain, complex geology and harsh conditions have made StatoilHydro an industry specialist in understanding and overcoming less than perfect conditions. One thing this doesn’t change is our commitment to the environment and the necessity to develop smarter energy solutions. In fact, more geological understanding, research and development will go into the production of a barrel of oil tomorrow than a barrel produced yesterday.

Discover more at www.statoilhydro.com


On behalf of the City and County of Denver, we thank you for visiting the Mile High City to attend the American Association of Petroleum Geologists 2009 Annual Convention & Exhibition.

Now more than ever, it is crucial for us to explore new, innovative and unconventional ways to feed the ever-growing demand for energy. As a former geologist, I understand the complexity of the energy issues facing Colorado and the country, which is why we have worked hard to transform Denver into a leader in the new energy economy. We have sought out renewable energy companies and pioneered the use of LED traffic lights, saving us thousands each year. Denver is also home to the first green fleet in the country, employing the use of hybrid, biodiesel and pedicabs for park maintenance. Denver enjoys over 300 days of sunshine each year — and we’ve capitalized on that by promoting the use of renewable solar energy. We’re also launching a citywide bike-sharing program later this summer that will have 1,000 bikes on the streets by Spring 2010, helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions by promoting alternative travel.

While you’re in town, we hope you’ll have some time to wander around our beautiful city and see all we’ve done to adapt these new, emerging technologies to our everyday lives. There is no shortage of cultural and recreational options, as the Mile High City boasts a variety of attractions, including the 10-theatre Denver Performing Arts Complex and myriad shops, restaurants, parks and outdoor recreation opportunities. From the 16th Street Mall pedestrian promenade to one of the largest urban park systems in the nation to the Denver Art Museum’s amazing new expansion, your options are endless.

I wish you a successful and thought-provoking conference, and hope you enjoy your stay in the Mile High City.

— John W. Hickenlooper, Mayor

DSUNDAYForum: The History of Petroleum GeologyDate: Sunday, 7 JuneTime: 1:15 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.Location: Room 601/603Co-chairs: R. P. Sorenson and S. M. Testa

The History of Petroleum Geology Committee is pleased to sponsor this session on the history of petroleum geology with emphasis on the Rocky Mountains. The session will begin with a synopsis of the petroleum exploration history of the Rockies in northeastern British Columbia. We will then move south and explore the history of geologic investigations and oil operations at Teapot Dome, Wyoming.

As we approach Colorado, we will follow the early historical timeline for Rocky Mountain energy in the areas of coal, oil and gas seeps, and early shallow shows and discovery wells. This will be followed

by the lesser-known history behind the 1901 discovery of the Boulder Oil Field in Colorado.

We will end the session with an informative discussion which will address a myriad of questions as to who was really first — the first oil well, the first giant gusher, the first offshore production, etc. Presenters and their topics include:

Ed Janicki• — Petroleum Exploration History of British Columbia, CanadaThomas Anderson• — History of Geologic Investigations and Oil Operations at Teapot Dome, WyomingPaul Oldaker• — Early Historical Timeline for Rocky Mountain Energy Including Coal, Oil and Gas Seeps, Shallow Shows, and Discovery WellsMatthew Silverman• — Oil Is Where You Find It: The Historic Boulder (Colorado) Oil FieldRaymond Sorenson• — Who Was First?

Opening Session and Awards CeremonyDate: Sunday, 7 JuneTime: 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.Location: Four Seasons BallroomFee: Included with convention registration

This is one opening session you won’t want to miss. Start your convention experience off by being part of what promises to be an exciting, engaging and entertaining opening session featuring a pre-show performance by the award-winning Rocky Mountain Children’s Choir.

DMONDAYManagement Forum: Challenges for Global Energy Demand — Short-Term Variability and Long-Term SolutionsDate: Monday, 8 JuneTime: 8:20 a.m.–11:40 a.m.Location: Room 108/110/112Co-chairs: P. O. Yilmaz and S. Sonnenberg

The oil and gas industry continues to generate opportunities via technological innovations to enhance its success in locating, extracting and transporting oil and gas supplies to meet global demand. Our industry is gearing to tackle the future challenges by developing and deploying high-tech solutions today. In addition to conventional exploration, industry is looking at unconventional targets, including tight gas sands, coalbed methane plays and shale gas. The challenge is to develop cost-effective technologies to recover more conventional resources and to unlock unconventional resources.

Moreover, new technologies aim not only to find and extract these resources, but also to reduce the environmental footprint of their utilization and tackle such issues as global climate change. As the world’s need for energy continues to increase, it is important that geoscientists involved in exploration acquire the skills to equip themselves for the increasingly difficult search for both conventional and unconventional sources of energy — all of this tied to the current oil and gas

All-Convention LuncheonThe Future of EnergyDate: Monday, 8 JuneTime: 11:30 a.m. – 1:15 p.m.Fee: $40 Location: Four Seasons Ballroom

Don’t miss out on a convention tradition that promises to be a highlight of this year’s annual meeting. The All-Convention Luncheon, an event boasting compelling presentations as well as outstanding food, will feature an innovative and informative visit with famed geologist, entrepreneur and media energy spokesman T. Boone Pickens.

Pickens is an AAPG member who continues to be a leading voice in calling for development of effective and affordable energy policies that include alternate energy sources. He is a legendary businessman, philanthropist and, for the past year, a prominent national media presence on energy matters. His presentation about the future of energy will include a few prepared remarks and a question-and-answer session that will provide a lot of answers to attendees’ questions.

Pickens unleashed a presidential candidate-caliber public relations

campaign in 2008 to promote a sweeping wind power plan that would transform the U.S. energy mix and serve as an energy bridge to the future. Promotion of the so-called “Pickens Plan,” which he personally bankrolled, is believed to be among the largest public policy ad campaigns ever launched, costing an estimated $50 million.

Pickens also pushed his plan through interviews, web sites and personal appearances on national TV, radio and magazine ads, thrusting him and the subject of energy into the media spotlight. In promoting his plan Pickens often cited a U.S. Department of Energy report that said 20 percent of the U.S. electricity supply can be generated from wind turbines in the nation’s “wind corridor”— a vast stretch from West Texas to the Canadian border. Pickens said the wind corridor is called the “ ‘Saudi Arabia of the Wind’…because we have the greatest wind reserves in the world.” He suggested the project could be funded by private investors.

Under the Pickens Plan, power from thousands of wind turbines could be distributed throughout the country via electric power transmission lines and could fuel power plants in large population hubs, he said. Fueling these plants with wind power would then free up the natural gas historically used to power them — enabling natural gas to replace non-U.S. oil as fuel for motor vehicles.

Pickens also will receive the L. Austin Weeks Memorial Medal, presented by the AAPG Foundation, in recognition of his support of the Foundation’s mission. Don’t miss the chance to be part of what should be an unforgettable session.

Forum: Discovery Thinking (AAPG/DPA)Date: Monday, 8 JuneTime: 1:15 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.Location: Room 601/603Co-chairs: C. Sternbach and E. Dolly

The “Discovery Thinking” Forum will be the second presentation of the AAPG 100th Anniversary Committee’s program recognizing “100 Who Made a Difference.” The Denver forum will feature seven invited speakers who have made a difference. They are: Bill Barrett, Richard Findley, Steve Kneller, Doug Strickland, Ray Thomasson, Bob Weimer and Marv Brittenham.

Each is a legendary veteran of the petroleum industry. They are all renowned for their success in exploring for and finding hydrocarbon reserves. Each speaker overcame great challenges and thrived in both business and geological aspects of our profession.

Topics to be discussed will include philosophy of exploration, lessons learned from remarkable careers, professional insights and some colorful anecdotes. As technology advances and a new wave of young geoscientists enter our profession, we see continued interest in forums such as this to discuss the personal side of success and what has been called the “art of exploration.”

Forum: Global Climate Change: Anticipating a Carbon Constrained Future: Implications for the Fossil Fuel Industry (DEG/AAPG GCCC)Date: Monday, 8 JuneTime: 1:15 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.Location: Room 702/704/706Co-chairs: J. Armentrout, J. Levine and J. Jones

These discoveries are some of the largest globally of the past two decades; they will have significant economic impact for the coming decades, as well as further the development of concepts in deepwater exploration and sub-salt drilling.

Estrella graduated in 1964 from the School of Geology of the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. At Petrobras, he has been the director of exploration and production since 2003. He worked at the company from 1965 to 1994, when he retired as a geologist of the exploration department. Before his retirement, he held several other positions, including: general superintendent (1989-1993); superintendent of research and development for exploration, drilling and production (1985-1989); head of the exploration division (1981-1985); head of the organic geochemistry sector (1981); head of the Brazilian East Coast Basin interpretation sector of the exploration department — DEPEX/RJ (1978-1981); and exploration manager of Petrobras Internacional S.A. — BRASPETRO for Iraq (1976-1978). Estrella was a member of the board of directors of the controlled companies in Argentina, Petrobras Energía Participaciones S.A. and Petrobras Energía S.A., until 2006. He was director of the Brazilian Oil, Gas and Biofuels Institute from 1993–1994, and has served as chairman of the board since 2003.

He has been a member of the board of directors of the subsidiary Petrobras Gás S.A. GASPETRO since 2003 and served as member of the board of Directors of its subsidiary, Transportadora Associada de Gás S.A. TAG, from 2006–2008.

The Michel T. Halbouty lecture series is an ongoing special event at the AAPG Annual Convention & Exhibition. Lecture topics are designed to focus

either on wildcat exploration in any part of the world where major discoveries might contribute significantly to petroleum reserves, or space exploration

where astrogeological knowledge would further mankind’s ability to develop resources on Earth and in the Solar System.


The source-to-sink analytical concept (S2S) has expanded significantly with academia, industry and government institutions pursuing this holistic approach to sedimentary systems due to its predictive power and its quantitative modeling approach. S2S tools and applications have proven useful for both societal issues, definition of new research directions and better predictions of source, reservoir and trap in oil and gas exploration.

This research symposium will present a state-of-the-art overview of S2S from the varied perspectives of leading scientists in the field, plus case examples of the S2S approach and the newest research results.

DTUESDAYSession: Global Climate Change: The Science Behind The Relationship Between CO2 and TemperatureDate: Tuesday, 9 JuneTime: 8:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.Location: Room 702/704/706Co-chairs: R. Thomasson, E. Barron, D. Jenkins and G. Shinn

This panel presentation is by world- class experts in their fields who have been invited to present scientific data on the relation between CO2 and Earth temperature. We start with CO2 in the Archeozoic and Proterozoic, and evolve into the Phanerozoic and finally the Pleistocene.

We look at the oceans and the total carbon cycle. In addition we have experts examine and explain aspects of positive and negative temperature feedback and the possible impact of anthropogenic CO2.There will be considerable time for discussion and questions from the audience.

Division of Professional Affairs (DPA) Luncheon (sold out)Professionalism and Public PolicyDate: Tuesday, 9 JuneTime: 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.Fee: DPA Member $35 Non-DPA Member $40 Location: Room 705/707/709/711

John Hickenlooper, geologist-turned brewpub pioneer, who had never run for political office, was elected Mayor of Denver in 2003 and reelected in 2007. In April 2005 — less

than two years into his first term — Time magazine named him one of the top five “big-city” mayors in America.

Mayor Hickenlooper will speak about the importance of maintaining professionalism and high ethical standards in everything that we, as DPA members and professional geologists, must maintain. Whether it be a simple discussion with the public or testimony in front of a regulatory body, consideration must be given to maintaining the highest professional and ethical standards. Due to the increased public awareness of energy and climate change, our profession is increasingly being called upon for scientific input and guidance.

Since taking office, Hickenlooper has increased civic engagement and participation throughout the city and Denver metro region, building strong bonds and partnerships that transcend partisan and geographic lines. Under his leadership, Denver hosted the 2008 Democratic National Convention, showcasing the energy, spirit, values and innovations of the New West and earning widespread praise as the greenest political convention ever.

AAPG Divisions Energy Forum (DEG/DPA/EMD)Date: Tuesday, 9 JuneTime: 5:00 p.m. – 6:05 p.m.Location: Room 702/704/706Co-chairs: C. Clark, B. Smith and L. Wray

The struggle to meet rapidly increasing global energy demands in an effective, economical and environmentally friendly manner is at the forefront of the concerns around the world — making this year’s DPA special forum one of the timeliest sessions ever planned.

DWEDNESDAYDivision of Environmental Geosciences (DEG) LuncheonCooperative Aquifer Restoration Project, Fort Peck Indian Reservation — a Multi-Agency Success StoryDate: Wednesday, 10 JuneTime: 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.Fee: $40 Location: Room 210/212

Mike Jacobs, a geoscientist with Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc., will discuss how the spirit of cooperation and environmental stewardship created a win-win situation

that was recognized by the Department of the Interior.

For the past 21/2 years, Pioneer Natural Resources has proactively and voluntarily committed more than $6 million to design and build

a plume capture and remediation system for the 426-acre Biere #1-22 Aquifer Restoration Project Site at the East Poplar Oil Field in Montana. The project team held numerous open and constructive discussions and meetings throughout the process with scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Fort Peck Indian Reservation Office of Environmental Protection. All participants approached the meetings in a spirit of cooperation with the common goal of moving towards capture and remediation of a brine plume that posed a potential threat to the City of Poplar’s public water supply.

As a result, the remediation team for the Aquifer Restoration Project Site was awarded the Department of the Interior’s Environmental Achievement Team Award in 2008, along with scientists from the USGS, Fort Peck Tribes Offices of Environmental Protection, EPA, Bureau of Land Management and the Bureau of Reclamation.

This presentation will cover both the technical and “multiagency cooperation” high points of this example of environmental stewardship, with an emphasis on how the spirit of cooperation leads to success. The presentation will also cover the application of existing technologies in new ways that may enhance the optimization of restoration activities in cleaning up oil field brines.

Jacobs has spent more than 25 years as a geoscientist, including numerous years in uranium, precious metal, and oil and gas exploration in the western United States and Texas for Noranda Mines, Tenneco Minerals, Coastal Oil and Gas, and Kerr-McGee Corp. Mike began his environmental career as a hydrogeologist at the NASA Johnson Space Center, White Sands Test Facility, New Mexico. After leaving NASA-WSTF, he worked as a hydrogeologist for El Paso Energy and later as a geologist with the Department of Defense, Environmental Restoration Group at Holloman Air Force Base in Alamogordo, NM.

Jacobs has been with Pioneer Natural Resources USA Inc. since 1997, where he is currently managing numerous groundwater and soil remediation projects including high-vacuum, dual-phase extraction, bio-sparge and bio-vent remediation systems as well as managing large pump-and-treat recovery projects of produced-water brine plumes.

Energy Minerals Division (EMD) LuncheonUnconventional Far-Out Petroleum and Gas: Hydrocarbons from Mars to Titan and BeyondDate: Wednesday, 10 JuneTime: 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.Fee: $40 Location: Room 705/707/709/711

Dr. Jeffrey S. Kargel, adjunct professor and senior research scientist in the Department of Hydrology and Water Resources at the University of Arizona, will discuss

what we can learn about the Solar System from hydrocarbons.

Earth may be the Solar System’s poor citizen in petroleum and gas deposits. Though not expected to be sources of hydrocarbons for people on Earth, when people venture to Mars and beyond extraterrestrial hydrocarbons — along with ice, salts and other materials — will be key resources.

Petroleum-like hydrocarbon mixtures, natural gas and complex organic mixtures are abundant in comets, carbonaceous chondrite asteroids and on Titan as well as other icy moons. On Mars, traces of methane seeps from buried sources that may be clathrate hydrates. The fundamental origins of the Solar System’s hydrocarbons, even those on Earth, started with stellar nucleosynthesis and then proceeded with condensation and photolysis of star stuff in the interstellar medium.

Then nebula processes occurring during formation of the Solar System produced

carbon-rich planets, icy moons, asteroids and comets. From there it is thought that the evolution of carbonaceous materials diverged, with life and carbonate, petroleum, gas and coal formation taking over on Earth and at least abiotic chemistry affecting the rest of the Solar System.

But are we too terracentric in thinking that only Earth is the abode of biogenic petroleum and gas? The evidence so far points more toward abiotic processes affecting extraterrestrial carbon, but this might not be exclusively true.

In any case, today methane rain pours over Titan’s surface, erodes river valleys and fills lake basins while carbonaceous aerosols drift down from the upper atmosphere. Speculatively, acetylene glaciers may scour Titan’s poles and benzene sand dunes blanket the dry equatorial basins. Volatile hydrocarbons cause comets to jet and split, and help power geysers on Saturn’s tiny moon, Enceladus.

Hydrocarbons are apt to be key geologic agents from carbonaceous asteroids to icy moons to comets. Hydrocarbons certainly are treasure-troves of scientific information on the history of the Solar System.

Dr. Kargel earned his B.S. in geological sciences at Ohio State University-Columbus and his Ph.D. in planetary sciences at the University of Arizona-Tucson. He is a founding member of the Working Group on Glacier and Permafrost Hazards in Mountain Areas, sponsored by the International Permafrost Association and International Commission on Cryospheric Sciences. He has written two books, more than 70 peer-reviewed papers and chapters, and more than 250 abstracts or articles for popular-science media and technical publications.

Some of Kargel’s major research interests are global climate change on Earth and other planets, cryospheric processes and landforms on Mars and Earth, comparative planetology and cosmochemistry.

Women in the Energy Industry: Why Do They Go? Why Do They Stay? What Does This Mean For You?Date: Wednesday, 10 JuneTime: 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.Location: Centennial Ballroom F/G, Hyatt Regency Convention CenterFee: Professionals $40; Students $10

Calling all text messagers! Almost half of the geoscientists hired into the energy industry are women, yet many of these women leave. Their reasons are varied and, until recently, largely unstudied. To identify and quantitatively analyze the causes of this exodus, AAPG conducted a survey targeting women geoscientists of all ages and at every stage of their careers.

From 2,048 respondents worldwide, AAPG has captured current workplace “best practices” that are supportive of working women and that contribute to employee satisfaction. The survey also points to issues that contribute to employee dissatisfaction and that need to be addressed to maintain employee diversity and retention.

University of Texas at Austin Professors Christine Williams and Chandra Muller will present their analysis of the AAPG global workforce retention survey data. Muller, professor of sociology, studies educational inequality especially in the mathematics and science fields. Williams studies gender discrimination and workplace inequality.

As we report key findings from the survey during this seminar, attendees will also take part in a real-time survey using text messaging technology. Your responses will be compiled and compared to the results from previous respondents.

Following the survey discussion, keynote speaker Julie A. Kupecz, Ph.D., Sr. Technology Advisor, CO2 and CCS, with Shell Exploration and Production Company will present on Career Ownership and Personal Opportunity in Today’s Industry: Redefining Success.

Tickets for luncheons, if still available, may be purchased at any registration counter.

“ It’s important to have a supply of cleaner-burning natural gas right here in our own backyard. But American natural gas supplies are often found in tight rock formations that are difficult to access, so new technology that can unlock these resources is critical.”

Cheryl GomezEngineer

When it comes to increasing our domestic energy supply, we’re not caught between a rock and a hard place.

One of the factors impacting energy prices is growing global demand. And one way

to put downward pressure on prices is to make more supply available. That’s why it’s

so important for America to make the most of the oil and gas deposits that exist right

here at home. ExxonMobil has invented a breakthrough technology that we’ve begun

using in the U.S. to access cleaner-burning natural gas locked in very tight, hard rocks.

We’re applying this technology to retrieve natural gas quicker, more effi ciently and

with less environmental impact. Breakthroughs like this have the potential to increase

our domestic energy supply. In fact, by tapping just one of our U.S. gas fi elds, we could

produce enough gas to heat 50 million homes for almost a decade.

“ It’s important to have a supply of cleaner-burning natural gas right here in our own backyard. But American natural gas supplies are often found in tight rock formations that are difficult to access, so new technology that can unlock these resources is critical.”

Cheryl GomezEngineer

When it comes to increasing our domestic energy supply, we’re not caught between a rock and a hard place.

One of the factors impacting energy prices is growing global demand. And one way

to put downward pressure on prices is to make more supply available. That’s why it’s

so important for America to make the most of the oil and gas deposits that exist right

here at home. ExxonMobil has invented a breakthrough technology that we’ve begun

using in the U.S. to access cleaner-burning natural gas locked in very tight, hard rocks.

We’re applying this technology to retrieve natural gas quicker, more effi ciently and

with less environmental impact. Breakthroughs like this have the potential to increase

our domestic energy supply. In fact, by tapping just one of our U.S. gas fi elds, we could

produce enough gas to heat 50 million homes for almost a decade.

Natural gas is one of the many resources that can

help us achieve energy security. BP is currently the

largest producer of natural gas in the U.S. To increase

its availability even further, we’re investing up to

$4.6 billion over 15 years in Wyoming and in Colorado’s

San Juan Basin. And to improve our nation’s onshore

gas production, we’ve made a strategic entry into

top-tier shale plays in the Arkoma Basin and

East Texas. Learn more at bp.com/us.

IBA Preparation ClassDates: Saturday, 6 JuneTime: 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.Instructor: Bob Stewart (ExxonMobil Exploration, Houston)Location: Colorado Convention Center Room 708/710/712

We will explore concepts, methods and tools of petroleum geoscience, which we use on a day-to-day basis to make exploration decisions in the energy industry . We will focus on how we make decisions with limited information, identify critical information in light of multiple scenarios, evaluate risk vs . uncertainty, maximize the value we get from integrated teams, etc . To investigate these topics, we will generate play element maps, play summary charts, cross-sections and play summary maps .

The course will combine lecture materials and hands-on exercises, with an emphasis on the exercises . The course will focus on an applied problem in basin exploration . Students will make play maps, evaluate play risk and bid on prospective acreage . Throughout the course we will stress the importance of integration across disciplines and scales, focusing on the interaction and expression of fundamental basin formation, fill and evolution processes from regional to basin and play to prospect scale . These discussions will include consideration of plate motion, paleogeography, stratigraphy, structural deformation, sedimentology, rock properties, subsurface imaging, burial history and fluid migration .

Dr . Andy Pulham is a consultant geologist based in Boulder, Colorado .He splits his time between teaching petroleum training classes and consulting

work, mainly regional studies in basins such as the Gulf of Mexico . Andy’s past employment has included BP, University of Colorado, Memorial University of Newfoundland and Nautilus USA, and he obtained his first degree at the University of Liverpool and his Ph .D . in Geology at the University of Wales at Swansea .

From 2006–2007 Andy was involved in Miocene stratigraphic analyses in the offshore Gulf of Mexico within the Regional Group of BHP Billiton Americas, Inc . Direction of these studies was conducted by Mike Moore and

Brian Butler, and the regional study was made in conjunction with Gillian Apps, Jason Crux, Tony Kratochvil, Frank Peel and Tim Smith; all BHP Billiton staff .

This SEPM Luncheon presentation examines some of the results of the regional Miocene BHP Billiton study . Acknowledgement is made to BHP Billiton Americas, Inc . who have graciously approved the content of the talk .

SEPM ACTIVITIES

activity that periodically deposited thick ashes across wide areas of the North American continent . Ash discharge rates peaked at >2,500 km3/m .y . in the Middle Miocene and periodically deposited ash blankets over the Great Plains that were several metres in thickness . The ash record onshore is well established and age-dated . Ashes are particularly rich in K2O and are dominated by glass shards .

Regional petroleum exploration well data in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico record distinctive volcaniclastic “ash” beds; recognized via well cuttings and petrophysical analyses . Ash beds are radioactive, particularly Thorium radioactivity, are commonly resistive and are low density . Potassium radioactivity also signatures ash content in sandy and muddy lithologies and chemostratigraphic studies also recognize the ash influence in the Miocene sediments; both muds and sands .

Stratigraphic analysis, using Nannofossil and Foraminifera biostratigraphy and petrophysical characterization, has determined that up to 16 distinctive ash beds punctuate the Miocene deepwater turbidite sediments of the central and eastern Gulf of Mexico .

These volcaniclastic beds are interpreted as gravity flow deposits enriched in ash material that was delivered via up dip fluvial systems that drained the Great Plains during the Miocene .The deepwater Gulf of Mexico record of ash deposits parallels the Great Plains ash-fall stratigraphy . Single ash beds can be in excess of 30 meters in thickness . Calculations of ash content in the deep water sediments indicates that nearly all the ash that fell on the Great Plains was flushed into the Gulf of Mexico .

AWARDS AND HONORS

Sidney Powers Memorial Award Marlan W. DowneyCitation: To Marlan W. Downey, legendary oil finder, renowned and respected business leader, a man who has reminded us that “geology is a

science, exploration is a business,” and that success begins with people.

Marlan W . Downey began his career with Shell Oil in 1957 . His first 20 years were spent in domestic exploration and research . In 1977, he joined Shell’s international business unit, where he became vice president of Shell, then president of Shell’s international subsidiary, Pecten .

After a brief retirement, during which he founded Roxanna Oil, he was recruited by ARCO as senior vice president of Exploration for ARCO International in 1990 . He was president of ARCO International from 1992 until he stepped down in 1997 .

Following his time at ARCO, he joined the University of Oklahoma as the Bartell Professor of Geology and Chief Scientist of the Sarkey’s Energy Center until 2000 .

Marlan has been a member of AAPG for more than 50 years . He served as AAPG President during 2000-2001, is a Foundation Trustee, has served on the Advisory Council, chaired numerous committees and was twice selected as distinguished lecturer .

He has published scores of articles and contributed to a half-dozen books, chaired the first Hedberg Conference on “Seals for Hydrocarbons,” the first Hedberg Conference on “Understanding Risk in E&P,” the fifth conference on “Unconventional Methods of Exploration,” the Pratt Conference on “Future Petroleum Provinces,” and the first AAPG conference on “A National Energy Policy” in Washington, D .C . He was selected to provide the article on

“Exploration for Oil and Gas” for the Encyclopedia of Energy .

Marlan was the first businessman to be knighted by President Biya of Cameroon for his services to that country . In 1995, the University of Nebraska recognized Marlan as a Distinguished Alumni . Peru College bestowed an Honorary Doctorate in Science on Marlan in 2001 . He was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and a Fellow of the Geological Society of the United Kingdom .

The AAPG has awarded him the Robert H . Dott Sr . Memorial Award for best geologic publication . In 2002, he received the Hedberg Medal for outstanding scientific achievements, and in 2007 was made an Honorary Member of the AAPG . He has been honored by the Houston Geological Society as “A Living Legend in the Oil and Gas Business,” and in 2005, was honored as a “Legendary Oil Finder” by the Petroleum History Foundation .

Michel T. Halbouty Outstanding Leadership Award

M. Ray ThomassonCitation: To M. Ray Thomasson, the quintessential explorationist, enthusiastic leader, contributing visionary and mentor who

has dedicated his professional life to furthering petroleum geosciences.

With an infectious enthusiasm, Ray Thomasson has dedicated his professional life to teaching petroleum

geology and advancing energy exploration . No one has given more to the geosciences than Ray . He is a born leader, a visionary, and, of course, an extremely successful explorationist . Ray is a fitting recipient of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) Michael T . Halbouty Outstanding Leadership Award .

Ray’s early life was spent in Columbia, Missouri, where he attended public school and later the University of Missouri, earning B .A . and M .A . degrees in geology . After two years as a U .S . Air Force intelligence officer, he continued his graduate education at the University of Wisconsin, where he earned a Ph .D . in geology . Both alma maters have honored him with an Outstanding Alumnus Award .

Ray was offered a job teaching stratigraphy and paleontology at the University of Illinois, but decided that the challenges of the business world would enhance his education before he returned to the world of academia . He chose to work for the Shell Oil Company in Midland, Texas, as a junior geologist .

The evolution of Ray’s career with Shell is a classic story of the ascent of a capable person in a dynamic environment . In 17 years Ray moved through various management positions including manager of geologic research and head of corporate planning for the Shell Group in London before being appointed chief geologist . After serving successfully in this role, he chose to seek his fortune as an independent serving as president for a number of smaller growing companies .

Throughout Ray’s career he consistently offered his knowledge and leadership to the AAPG . He served on or chaired 14 standing committees, was a distinguished lecturer, visiting petroleum geologist, and taught a number of short courses . He has presented papers and organized technical sessions at regional, national and international meetings .

AWARDS AND HONORS

Ray has deservedly received the Distinguished Service Award and Honorary Membership from the AAPG . He served as our president in 1999–2000 — our millennium president . He was president of the American Geological Institute in 2003–2004 and received the William Heroy award in 2006 .

In 1991, Ray with his wife, Merrill Shields, conceptualized and organized Thomasson Partner Associates (TPA) . It was a unique concept where geological specialists, geophysicists, geochemists and engineers joined to form synergistic exploration teams to explore for giant accumulations of oil and gas . The experience has been most gratifying to Ray and Merrill .

Ray’s four daughters and Merrill lovingly know that his life as a father, husband and a visionary explorationist has been exciting and successful . No one is more deserving of the Michel . T . Halbouty Outstanding Leadership Award than M . Ray Thomasson .

back. Steep learning curves were the norm for Betsy and her success was not only personal but richly rewarded AAPG and the Montana Geological Society.

Elizabeth B . Campen embraced geology from the moment she heard the definition when she was a student in Massachusetts . A woman ahead of her times, she wasn’t able to work in her career for 20 years after her Smith College degree was granted, as she unfortunately believed her advisors who said “girls don’t work in geology .” She moved to the West, helped to run a ranch in Montana and raised three

children in the interim . Then finally, she looked around and said, “Oh, yes I can!”

In 1977 she attended an AAPG meeting in Billings, Montana, and past president Bruno Hansen took her under his wing, gave her encouragement and mentoring, as he did with many, and helped her to start her own career path . She had a steep learning curve . She did it all . She worked hard with the Montana Geological Society, taking all of their continuing education courses and then found work on well sites, in exploration and as a consultant .

She served on many MGS committees and became an officer and eventually the MGS president . She didn’t stop there . She chaired or co-chaired the AAPG Section meeting in Billings twice .

Bruno appointed her to the AAPG Public Outreach committee and she didn’t look back . She has been an active Delegate, a leader in the Energy Minerals Division, has served on the Membership, Reservoir Development, Geophysical Integration, Public Outreach, Computer Applications, GIS Publications, and chaired the Youth Educational Activities committees . She also served as AAPG secretary in 1998-1999 and was on the Advisory Council, as well as serving as executive secretary to the DPA and EMD .

Let’s backtrack for a minute . Can you imagine the fortitude it took for a ranch wife, born in 1936, 20 years out of touch with this rapidly evolving profession, to acquire the computer expertise to serve on the Computer Applications committee and to integrate modern computer skills into her later life career? We all know more renowned geologists who have been daunted by this, but not Betsy .

Betsy loves to share geology with children and has years of devotion to Billings’ Science Fair, school programs, and the Billings Gem and Mineral show .

In 1986 Betsy married Ted Campen, a petroleum engineer, and they started Campen Consultants, which seems to preclude retirement for both of them, as they continue their 24-year partnership in oil and gas and most recently coal-bed methane exploration .

Today we worry about the petroleum geology workforce and recruiting young geologists in a world where fewer and fewer young people major in our science .

Betsy (Elizabeth) Campen is an important model for AAPG and our profession to embrace, as she can inspire many women to return to the field, to contribute greatly, and succeed with a dusted-off degree . She is irrepressibly determined and admirably successful .

His career started with the Geological Survey of Saskatchewan, where he


AWARDS AND HONORS

met his wife-to-be, Paula, an English radiographer . They moved to Calgary in 1982 where John was a research geologist for Shell . Next stop was Plano, Texas, in 1987 as senior reservoir geologist for ARCO . The family transferred to Jakarta with ARCO in 1991, where John characterized Indonesian reservoirs and seals using capillary pressure analysis . This applied research resulted in his organizing two Hedbergs on Seals (1993 and 2002), being a distinguished lecturer for the Petroleum Exploration Society of Australia (1995), receiving an AAPG Special Commendation Award (1997) and being selected as an AAPG distinguished lecturer (2002–2003 and again in 2009) .

John has won a deserved reputation in the field of education . He became director of the National Centre for Petroleum Geology and Geophysics (NCPGG) at Adelaide University in 1998 . NCPGG merged with the P .E . Department to create the Australian School of Petroleum (2003) . Under his leadership it became the largest petroleum school in the southern hemisphere with strong Masters and Ph .D . programs . John is now the chief scientist for the Cooperative Research Centre for Greenhouse Gas Technologies (CO2CRC), remaining at the university as chair of Geosequestration .

John played a key role in setting up the Asia/Pacific region, serving as secretary, president, Advisory Council representative and House of Delegates delegate . He was Oral Sessions chair of the Bali 2000 and Technical Program co-chair of Perth 2006 International Conferences . A past chair of the Regions committee, he currently leads the Visiting Geoscientist program, and his 2006 Distinguished Service award gave further recognition for his industry schools, and efforts in educating and developing professional staff .

The family enjoys living in Adelaide; Paula does a great deal of volunteer work,

daughter Ana is finishing her degree in Law and International Studies, and son Ben is in his third year of University . They love the outdoor life, and John is also an accomplished squash player .

Honorary Member AwardJ. Michael PartyCitation: To James Michael Party—proven oil finder, beloved father, and husband, true-blue friend and tireless volunteer who never fails

to give the best of himself with equanimity and a smile.

If you ask Mike Party about his most fulfilling experiences with AAPG, he won’t tell you about being elected to the Executive Committee as its secretary . Or about the Distinguished Service and Distinguished Member of the House Awards he received a few years ago . Nope . How about his term as president of the Division of Professional Affairs? Wrong again . Instead, Mike will tell you how much fun he’s had through his many years of service to AAPG .

He’ll tell you about the lifelong friendships he’s made in the course of volunteering not only for AAPG, but for local and regional geological societies as well . He’ll tell you that someone else did all the work . That’s the greatness and genius of J . Michael Party—it’s all about the living and the giving, and never about Mike .

James Michael Party—only child, Missouri-born and bred . Unrepentant child fossil collector, University of Missouri-Rolla graduate, rabid KISS fan, longtime Midland, Texas, resident and geologist and geophysicist for Wagner and Brown, Ltd ., husband to Cathie and father of three kids, Lauren, Michael, and Robby (his greatest source of pride) .

Despite his commitments as an employee, spouse and dad, Mike finds

ways to volunteer his time, energy and good humor to many organizations such as the Permian Basin Section SEPM, West Texas Geological Society and Foundation, Southwest Section AAPG, Permian Basin Geophysical Society, Midland youth sports, UMR alumni activities, Petroleum Club of Midland and, of course, AAPG .

Mike doesn’t just serve as a professional society volunteer: his peers demonstrate their confidence and support in his abilities by electing him to increasingly important leadership positions, the most recent being secretary to the AAPG Executive Committee, a two-year international office .

In case it sounds as if Mike’s perfect, he’s not—every once in a while he confuses one word with another . Don’t even ask if he can spell . The tales of a few St . Patrick’s Day celebrations will remain unwritten . And oh, yeah—he’s probably drilled a dry hole or two . During the 2009 AAPG Annual Convention in Denver, where he will receive his Honorary Member award, Mike will undoubtedly thank everyone for what their friendship has meant to him, and for how grateful he is for the opportunities he’s been given .

But there’s one thing no one will ever hear him say because it’s simply not true, and that’s that his election to any office, or the receipt of any one award, is the crowning achievement of his life or career . That honor is reserved for friendships, and for memories and for fine children sent out into the world .

So, Mike, it’s never about you—except that right here, right now, it is . Sit back and enjoy it for a minute . Congratulations on your Honorary Member Award . AAPG has never bestowed its second-highest honor on a truer friend .

—Brenda K. Cunningham


AWARDS AND HONORS

Honorary Member AwardPeter A. ZieglerCitation: To Peter Ziegler, in recognition of his pioneering leadership and contributions to integrated basin analysis, resulting in new insights

into plate tectonic controls on the evolution and hydrocarbon potential of sedimentary basins.

Peter Ziegler’s career consists of 33 years within the petroleum industry; 30 years with Shell and 20 years of university teaching and research .

Peter obtained his Ph .D . in 1955 from the University of Zürich, Switzerland . After three years of field work in Israel, Madagascar and Algeria, Peter migrated to Canada where he joined Shell as party chief of a helicopter supported field crew . During holidays in Switzerland, Peter met and then later married his wife, Yvonne, and returned with her to the cold and long winters of Edmonton . Realizing that summer fieldwork was not conducive to family life, Peter converted to subsurface geology, started to smell oil and got the hang of it .

In 1970, the Ziegler’s transferred to Shell International in the Netherlands where Peter supervised exploration activities in the newly established North Sea oil patch . As the North Sea success story unfolded, Shell and its partners chalked up such major discoveries as the Brent, Statfjord and Troll fields . Peter’s responsibilities as exploration adviser expanded stepwise to all Shell companies in Europe, then South America and ultimately worldwide .

Parallel to operational responsibilities, Peter compiled his Geological Atlas of Western and Central Europe, published in 1982 . He toured the USA and Canada as AAPG distinguished lecturer in 1986-1987, speaking on the Evolution of the Arctic-North Atlantic and Western Tethys and later published an AAPG Memoir on the same topic that resulted

in his receiving the Robert H . Dott Sr . Memorial Award .

After nearly 19 years in the Netherlands, Peter retired in 1988 and returned with Yvonne to Switzerland . To overcome post-retirement syndrome, Peter prepared the 2nd Edition of his Geological Atlas of Western and Central Europe, published in 1990 during Shell’s 100 Years of Exploration anniversary . In addition, he lectured at the University of Basel and the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, carried out consulting work and participated in international research endeavors such as ILP and EUROPROBE .

Peter’s publications found wide recognition, as reflected by the award of numerous medals and appointments to several Academies . In 1995, he received the AAPG Special Commendation Award, he was appointed in 1996 as Titular Professor in Basel and received Honorary Doctor Degrees from Moscow State University (1997) and Technical University Delft (2001) .

Peter has contributed enormously to narrowing the gap between academia and industry . Personally, I have learned a lot from this unique man who influenced my career and the direction of my research . He has been, and still is, a continuous source of inspiration, both scientifically and personally .

—Sierd Cloetingh

Outstanding Explorer AwardMichael S. JohnsonCitation: To Michael S. Johnson, for your contributions to the discovery of Parshall field in North Dakota along with an outstanding

career that has demonstrated the value of intelligent and tenacious effort combined with exemplary character.

Michael S . Johnson’s career is an example of how a number of seemingly

unrelated events can coalesce to form dramatic results, provided one has the perseverance . He graduated from The Ohio State University in 1949 with B .Sc . and M .S . degrees in geology . Mike was employed by the Amerada Petroleum Corporation, and assigned to the Williston Basin office in Billings, Montana . In 1949 there was no production in the Williston Basin!

Mike was drafted into the Army in September, and was assigned to Fort Belvoir to be an instructor in interpretation of aerial-photographs . Later, in 1951, the Army assigned him to a unit that became one of the highlights of his entire career . He was assigned to the Nevada Test Site where he witnessed the detonation and effects of several small KT atomic bombs .

With military service over in 1953, Mike went back to the Williston office because Amerada had made the Williston Basin oil discovery at the No . 1 Iverson well, and rapid development was in progress .

In 1954, he was transferred to the Tulsa headquarters office and assisted in the development of the Nesson Anticline fields . Two year later, he was promoted to district geologist for the Wyoming district in Casper .

In 1958, he resigned from Amerada to become the Rocky Mountain exploration manager for Apache Oil Company, a newly formed drilling fund . Apache closed their Denver office in 1963, and place Mike on a part-time retainer .

In 1967, Mike went on a full-time retainer with Wessely Energy and Headington Oil Company . Income from this work enabled him to meet business expenses and seek other ventures; however, his main endeavor was the Williston Basin .

Mike’s crowning achievement was at Parshall field . This is where all his diverse background in the geology of the Williston Basin and in aerial-photo


AWARDS AND HONORS

interpretation coalesced . Using his ideas, his partner, Henry Gordon, president of Strata Resources, together with the financial help of Tulsa geologist Bob Berry, leased 44,000 acres surrounding two wells drilled years before in eastern Mountrail County . Both of these wells were twinned by EOG Resources and were the discovery wells for Ross and Parshall fields . Parshall field exceeded expectations, and now covers over 1 million acres .

Mike says, “I have had an interesting and enjoyable career . Financial success has been important, but so has the hunt and challenge of finding oil and gas . In the high-risk nature of our industry, perseverance is a needed quality . It is sometime rewarding, as in my case . How fortunate we are to live in a country as great as ours, and to be blessed with working in an industry such as ours .”

—Walter E. Johnson

Robert R. Berg for Outstanding Research Award

Bradford E. PratherCitation: To Bradford E. Prather, for major advances in our understanding of the sedimentology, stratigraphy and

reservoir characteristics of turbidite depositional systems.

The Robert R . Berg Outstanding Research Award is given in recognition of a singular achievement in petroleum geoscience research . Brad is a recognized expert in sedimentology, seismic stratigraphy reservoir architecture of slope and base-of-slope depositional systems, turbidite rock properties, the stratigraphy and reservoir characteristics of carbonate depositional systems and the use of geochemistry for interpreting carbonate diagenesis . One could therefore imagine the difficulty an awards committee might have in choosing which of his contributions to geology most merited this honor .

While leading interdisciplinary research teams for Royal Dutch Shell, Brad was the principal developer of an innovative geologic model of slope and base-of slope turbidite systems . This model has been used widely by our industry for calibrating seismic facies to reservoir stratigraphy including net-to-gross distributions, geometry and quality of stratigraphic traps and reservoir performance expectations . The concepts have proven their powerful utility as quantitative risk-appraisal tools .

Earlier, non-proprietary elements of Brad’s work were shown at the 2000 AAPG meeting, where they earned the best poster award . A more comprehensive version in the open literature became the fourth-most-downloaded paper from the Marine and Petroleum Geology website in 2003 . It remains on the top-25 list of most-downloaded papers to this day, five years after publication .

Brad Prather’s 27-year career as a geologist, teacher and leader has been characterized by an interdisciplinary and collaborative style of working that offers a role model to younger scientists entering our profession . Always cognizant of the need to calibrate his interpretations, he has consistently demonstrated a keen appetite for the value of personal observations of outcrops, cores, cuttings and thin-sections . He has become a thought leader by venturing outside his geological comfort zone, quickly developing expertise in new areas while testing and sharing what he has learned and remaining open to new ideas . These traits aptly reflect the character of the man for whom this award is named .

Brad has been an AAPG distinguished lecturer, has chaired many international symposia and has been a keynote speaker at EU-UNESCO and Hedberg research conferences . His professional honors include having been named among the Erasmus Haworth Most Distinguished Alumni by the University of Kansas . He has received the Jules Braunstein Award,

and was the only member in the 25-year history of the Cam Sproule Memorial Award to have won it twice .

—John Barwis

Distinguished Service AwardAlistair R. BrownCitation: To Alistair R. Brown for professional expertise in communicating the geologic interpretation of 3-dimensional

seismic data to geologists and geophysicists worldwide by distinguished lectures, numerous articles, courses and AAPG Memoir 42.

Alistair R . Brown is an internationally recognized geoscientist best known as the author of AAPG Memoir 42 “Interpretation of Three-Dimensional Seismic Data .” This publication is the definitive, and now classic, text on integrated geologic and geophysical interpretation of 3-D seismic data . Now in a Sixth Edition following its initial publication in 1986, the book has recently surpassed 22,000 copies in worldwide sales .

Alistair is a Consulting Reservoir Geophysicist working out of Dallas, Texas, and has more than 40 years of industry experience . He is a masterful interpreter of 3-dimensional seismic data using the latest techniques on interactive workstations combined with keen geologic insight and knowledge . He spends much of his time teaching interpretation methods and advising on interpretation problems worldwide . His enthusiasm and clever wit make him an experienced and enjoyable teacher . More than 8,000 geoscientists have taken his courses .

Alistair was born and raised in Carlisle, northernmost England, and graduated from Oxford University in England, having attended The Queen’s College . He met his future wife Mary, another Oxford graduate, in 1960 and they


AWARDS AND HONORS

married in 1963 and have three children . After graduation, he moved to Australia where he was employed by the Bureau of Mineral Resources working on geologic projects . In 1972, he returned to England to work for Geophysical Service International (GSI) where he interpreted one of the first commercial 3-D seismic data volumes .

He is credited with the idea for the first seismic horizon slice in 1979, which forever changed the interpreter’s viewpoint from looking at seismic cross sections to looking at seismic reflections as patterns along horizon bedding planes .

Alistair has made numerous contributions to AAPG, SEG and other professional societies . He was an instructor for an AAPG/SEG continuing education course in 1984-1987, chairman of the Editorial Board of The Leading Edge SEG publication from 1986-1988, and became an AAPG distinguished lecturer in 1988 .

Alistair’s exceptional skill as a communicator led to his service as the inaugural Joint AAPG/SEG distinguished lecturer in 1999-2000 and he was able to visit AAPG and SEG audiences around the globe . During 2004-2005, he was Editor of the Geophysical Corner, a monthly column in the AAPG Explorer magazine . In 2006 Alistair received SEG Honorary Membership in recognition of his many contributions .

This dedicated, lifelong effort to improve the science of geologic interpretation of seismic is an inspiration to his colleagues . It is not an exaggeration to say that Alistair has probably had more influence on how we interpret modern seismic data than any other single person . It is principally for his unique expertise and contributions that AAPG honors him .

—R. Randy Ray

Distinguished Service AwardLarry L. JonesCitation: To Larry L. Jones for his unlimited passion in all things AAPG but most especially his work as House of Delegates chairman

during a very challenging time. His professionalism and sense of fairness was enjoyed and respected during his tenure as HoD chair.

The Distinguished Service Award was established 38 years ago to recognize AAPG members who have stood out from their peers in their service, and most importantly in the responsibilities handed to them in the form of a special AAPG position .

Since 1994, Larry has been first a delegate and then an influential voice in the House of Delegates . As past foreman of the Houston Delegation, Larry has represented the AAPG’s largest body of members during a time when the House of Delegates was tasked with providing decisions and leadership on several tradition-changing proposals . In his involvement with the House of Delegates, Larry held the positions of chairman of the Rules and Procedures Committee and the Honors and Awards Committee . With those responsibilities Larry provided the necessary leadership and advice needed .

His election as HoD chairman-elect at the Annual Meeting in Calgary in 2005 was followed by his serving as vice-chairman of the Ad Hoc Committee for Graduated Dues at a time when the newly proposed Graduated Dues program required new rules and procedures to be adopted . His decision to begin his term as HoD chairman and member of the Executive Committee came after he overcame a severe medical occurrence . The discipline required to combat this life-threatening medical issue was a result of his dedication to basic moral principles and because of this strength of character, Larry was able

to successfully complete his tenure as chairman .

Larry left the plains of Nebraska with a B .S . and M .S . from the University of Nebraska to begin his career in the Gulf Coast . His love of Nebraska did not end when he left Lincoln . Larry has provided his Alma Mater with many hours of advice and service in his role as a member of the Geoscience Advisory Board and in his position as a trustee of the University Foundation . In these roles, he was able to assist in the implementation of several necessary programs, and more importantly Larry was able to encourage university freshman to consider the geosciences as a career .

Since being a member of the 1955 Orange Bowl team, Larry has attended many games in Lincoln . He makes a special attempt to attend the OU-Nebraska game, as many of his peers will attest . His commitment to Nebraska, not unlike his commitment to the AAPG, is but one example of the principals Larry has demonstrated throughout his career: those of dedication, commitment, discipline and support of a cause that he believes in .

I am very pleased to have played a small part in the awarding of Larry L . Jones with the Distinguished Service Award for his service to the AAPG and for his lifelong commitment to the AAPG .

—Gary S. Grinsfelder

Distinguished Service AwardMike J. LakinCitation: To Michael John Lakin, pre-eminent for his drive and determination to ensure that APPEX London became a success within

the European Region, but also for his considerable contribution to the European Region Council.

Mike Lakin is a born leader . Mike was elected to the European Region Council


AWARDS AND HONORS

in 2004 as vice-president, serving with Sigrunn Johnsen and myself . At about the same time Mike recognized that the early stage AAPG concept of a fair, at which oil industry deals could be made, along the lines of NAPE, but specifically international in nature, could have very considerable success being centered in London, and his involvement and his specific skills have proved invaluable .

Over the past six years Mike has been very involved on the APPEX Committee, was deputy in 2007 and now chairman in 2008 and 2009, and a key to help making the event a success to date and potentially the world’s only truly global upstream deal-making show . APPEX, as a result, is now becoming recognized as “the” international deal fair and it has become an integral annual meeting in the European Region calendar . Furthermore, it is more of a key “industry event” involving as it does not only leaders from the oil and gas industry, but financiers and key commercial elements of the industry as well .

Bringing together geoscientists with representatives of the legal and financial professions has led to very considerable benefits in that each has begun to understand and respect the others’ views and even the others’ terminology . In the oil and gas business, the standing of the AAPG in the industry can only be enhanced by the growing reputation of the APPEX brand, which has grown to be so well regarded under Mike’s recent leadership and his dedicated British team .

Mike graduated from University College, Cardiff, in 1984 in geology and started his career as a geologist with Superior Oil, then with Carless, Capel and Leonard, which successfully explored and exploited some of the oil and gas fields onshore southern England before transitioning through Kelt, acquiring them in 1998, and before moving to join Petresearch and the development of his deal making activities and experience . He formed his own company, ENVOI Limited, in 1999 .

He became an active member of AAPG in 1993, and he is also a fellow of the Geological Society, and a member of the Energy Institute, the Association of International Petroleum Negotiators and the Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain .

Mike has always brought a passion and dedication to whatever he turns his attention and in so doing is an inspiration to his colleagues . His time as vice-president of the European Region Council and his assumption of the chair of APPEX showed his leadership qualities .

It is rare for an individual to make so influential an impact in our business and with AAPG in so short a time, but this Mike has done, and so the recommendation of the Distinguished Service Award is most thoroughly deserved .

Distinguished Service AwardDalton F. LockmanCitation: To Dalton F. Lockman, recognizing his distinguished leadership, enthusiastic service and exceptional organizational and

technical skills for the benefit of the Pacific Section and all of AAPG.

Dalton Lockman is an exceptional choice to receive the Distinguished Service Award from AAPG . He was born in Kennewick, Washington, and raised in the San Francisco Bay area . He proclaims his wife, Lisa, and two children, Ethan and Lily, are gifts from God, and they receive much of his attention . Dalton began his geologic career at Whittier College, obtaining his B .S . in 1979 . He earned his Masters degree from Wright State University in Ohio, where renowned fracture expert Byron Kulander was his advisor . In 1981, Dalton joined Exxon Company, USA in Los Angeles . He was soon describing fractures in cores

from Alaska’s Lisburne Formation, where he contributed significantly to understanding that reservoir and Exxon’s fracture description methods .

Exxon’s office moved to Thousand Oaks, California, in 1983, and Dalton logged 15 years there, working fields onshore and offshore California and Alaska . He was the production and operations geologist for the Heritage Platform developing Pescado Field, and then was operations coordinator for all of the Santa Ynez Unit . He played a key role in technical analysis of the Monterey Formation, presenting papers at Pacific Section and national AAPG meetings on the reservoirs and fractures .

Dalton began his involvement with local geologic societies during this time, serving as vice-president then president of the Coast Geological Society, and finally taking on the general chairmanship of the 1994 AAPG Pacific Section Convention in Ventura, California . Dalton was elected in 1996 to serve as the 1997-1998 Pacific Section president . In 1998, he moved to Anchorage, Alaska, overseeing Exxon’s geologic interests on the North Slope, as well as serving for three years as treasurer of the Alaska Geological Society .

Dalton left ExxonMobil in 2001 for a position with Stocker Resources (now Plains Exploration & Production) in California . The Inglewood Field was the focus of his attention, and he led the way in the amazing feat of acquiring a 3-D seismic survey in the midst of Los Angeles! The move presented the opportunity for participating in yet another Pacific Section Society . Starting in 2001 Dalton served as president of the Los Angeles Basin Geological Society for four years . In 2003, he served as general chairman for AAPG at the joint Pacific Section meeting with SPE Western Region in Long Beach and won election as an AAPG Delegate from the Los Angeles Basin Geological Society . His crowning achievement (so far) was serving as general chairman for


AWARDS AND HONORS

the 2007 AAPG Annual Convention held in Long Beach . The meeting was a resounding success and a tribute to his organizational skills and leadership .

Dalton has received numerous technical and service awards from the Pacific Section, and the AAPG Certificate of Merit for his work on the 2007 Long Beach Convention . Everywhere he goes he makes important contributions to AAPG and our profession .

—Jon Schwalbach

Distinguished Service AwardKenneth M. MallonCitation: To Ken Mallon, in recognition of his distinguished and long record of dedication and achievement in intersociety initiatives

for AAPG concerning reserves and resources definitions and classifications.

Kenneth Mark Mallon, a native of New Jersey, became fascinated with geology during his high school years from rocks he collected in the Ramapo Mountains . In 1964, he received a B .S . degree from Tulane . He obtained his M .S . from New Mexico Tech, where he studied polymetamorphics under Professor Ed Bingler, who instilled the importance of details when assessing rock and basin genesis . In 1966, Ken began his petroleum geology career with Gulf Oil in Houston, Texas .

After a leave to serve his country as a U .S . Navy officer in Vietnam, he resumed his training in exploration before transferring to the Kilgore production office where he gained experience under the tutelage of Bill Smylie . Bill taught Ken the fundamentals and complexities of development geology and value of serving one’s profession and community .

The Kilgore posting resulted in a significant contribution to the redevelopment of Fannett Salt Dome in mid-1970s, after which he was promoted

to head of Production Geology in Hobbs, New Mexico . In Hobbs he developed an interdisciplinary team and program that expanded the exploitation program, halted production declines, added reserves and increased staff development and morale . Ken also facilitated an exploration-development geology cross-training program that afforded unprecedented opportunities to cross-train exploration geologists on the challenges and rewards of development geology .

In 1986, he joined a private venture to develop PC-based reservoir characterization software . In his next adventure, he led a Landmark Graphics technical team working with Chinese geoscientists in China . Upon his return, he redirected his career as an independent consultant on exploration and development projects and reserve evaluations throughout the world .

In 1996, Ken began serving as AAPG’s first liaison to the SPE’s Oil and Gas Reserves Committee . Several AAPG Explorer articles documenting the OGRC activities and publication of the March 2007 SPE/WPC/AAPG/SPEE “Petroleum Resource Management System” attest to his contributions concerning resource definitions . During 2006-2007, he served on the United Nations Ad Hoc Group of Experts for the Harmonization of Fossil Energy and Mineral Resources Terminology .

This group is updating the UN Framework Classification to integrate different reporting systems from around the globe . He is a member of AAPG’s Committee on Resource Evaluation, and served the Reservoir Development Committee for 17 years . He is a licensed geologist in Texas and a member of DPA, SPE, HGS, SIPES and Roswell Geological Society .

His mentorship and untiring service to AAPG are validated at conventions as he is seen engaging speakers and judging sessions . His focus on interdisciplinary communication, knowledge transfer

and development geology continue to support and inspire others .

Ken’s career truly exemplifies a lifetime of personal and professional service . It is with great pride and pleasure that I write about Ken for AAPG’s recognition of him with a 2009 Distinguished Service Award .

Distinguished Service AwardRandi S. MartinsenCitation: To Randi Martinsen, passionate in everything. She created a petroleum curriculum that for decades has produced superior

explorationists, she insists on students taking field experience into their industry careers, she fires up their creativity and she single-handedly established the Rocky Mountain Rendezvous.

Randi Martinsen is the very definition of passion in everything she does . Her single-handed establishment of the Rocky Mountain Rendezvous student job fair at the University of Wyoming exemplifies the kinds of successes she has created during her professional career .

Leaving her very satisfying position as exploration geologist with Cities Service in Denver in 1979, she was faced with building a new career in academia when she married geology Professor Jim Steidtmann at the University of Wyoming . Undaunted by the lack of a Ph .D ., she built a petroleum geoscience curriculum and supervised graduate student research on petroleum-oriented theses, served on graduate student committees and advised many students of the earth sciences .

Randi was born and raised in Queens, New York, and acquired her B .S . in geology at S .U .N .Y at Stony Brook . Her lifelong commitment to and enjoyment of the great American west began with her move to Northern Arizona


AWARDS AND HONORS

University in 1972 where she did her Master’s thesis on the East Verde River Canyon in Arizona . She worked with Cities Service Company after grad school, immediately making a name for herself with talks and publications on Hartzog Draw Field in Wyoming — for which she was awarded the A . I . Levorsen Award in 1979 . She has recently received the Frank A . Morgan award from the Wyoming Geological Association, their highest award .

Randi created the Rocky Mountain Rendezvous at the UW for students who could not attend the Houston-based AAPG Student Expo . For seven consecutive years it has been successful in attracting students from all over the United States and recruiters from more than 25 companies .

Randi’s contributions to AAPG include a recent two-year term as treasurer, chairing the Rocky Mountain Section meeting in 2000, Technical Program chair for the 1994 Annual Meeting in Denver and chairing or serving on the Audit Review, Budget and Finance, Investment, Group Insurance, Prowess, Student Expo, GeoTours, Membership, Publications, Public Outreach, Distinguished Lecture and Membership committees . She has been an associate editor and has joined the PTTC BOD .

Her teaching and consulting skills have been sought after around the world, which takes her away, all too often, from her husband, horses and wonderful mini-ranch outside of Laramie . But these travels fulfill one of her other lifetime dreams of enjoying people and cultures globally . Not inconsiderable has been the time and effort she has dedicated to home and hearth . She and Jim raised a family and Randi has placed her most profound attention to the needs and interests of daughter, Dana, and son, Matthew .

Distinguished Service AwardJohn E. RitterCitation: To John Ritter, for his enthusiasm, dedication and leadership in promoting global standards in the assessment, classification

and reporting of petroleum reserves and resources.


AWARDS AND HONORS

The Distinguished Service Award is bestowed on AAPG members in recognition of their beneficial long-term service to the organization . John Ritter not only brought credit to the AAPG through his prior and ongoing service on the Committee on Resource Evaluation (CORE) but also promulgating AAPG-endorsed petroleum resource assessment and classification standards through joint ventures with other organizations .

It is recognized that the assessment of in-place and potentially recoverable petroleum requires the coordination of geoscientists, engineers and economic analysts with diverse areas of expertise . Moreover, achieving global consistency in the process requires ongoing interaction beyond the international petroleum industry with government agencies, academia and related industries . Through the efforts of John Ritter, the AAPG has been well represented in these negotiations .

John chaired the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) Oil and Gas Reserves Committee (OGRC) from 2004 through 2007; it was under his guidance that the Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS) project, co-sponsored by the AAPG, was completed . This document provides the industry best-practice guidelines for assessment of, and the international reporting standard for, petroleum reserves and resources .

John also represented the SPE OGRC on the governing bureau of the Ad Hoc Group of Experts on the Harmonization of Fossil Energy and Mineral Resources Terminology (AHGE) charged with updating of the United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC), working hand-in-hand with AAPG representatives . He directed discussions with the Committee for Mineral Reserves International Reporting Standards (CRIRSCO), leading to a detailed mapping of petroleum and minerals resource classification systems and the subsequent interface with the

International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) project that will ultimately lead to revised global financial reporting standards for the extractive industries .

John was also heavily involved in two key activities that promoted AAPG’s position at the national political level . The first was the AAPG/SPE Interdisciplinary Conference held in Washington, D .C ., June 2007 . This conference helped provide insights on the implications of reserves and resource reporting to a wide spectrum of industry and political participants . Further, John participated as a member of the AAPG SEC Comment Committee, providing input to the Securities Exchange Commission on their proposed reserves disclosure .

He is widely respected by both geoscience and engineering professionals and is an outstanding candidate for recognition through the AAPG Distinguished Service Award .

Distinguished Service AwardJack H. WestCitation: To Jack H. West, consummate geologist to the discovery and development of oil and gas, for his exemplary and long-term service to

AAPG and the Pacific Section.

A defining moment in Jack’s early history in geology took place in July 1959 during a mapping program in Alaska . Jack was a summer intern with a field party of geologists mapping in the Brooks Range on the North Slope region of Alaska .

He and his partner were examining outcrops when a storm moved in and lightning struck in their vicinity . Both were knocked unconscious . After they recovered and made their way to the base of the hill, the party’s helicopter flew them back to camp, then to Fairbanks for a medical examination . Later they returned to the field to continue the mapping program .

Even after this horrific experience, Jack decided that geology was his continued choice of study, which he vigorously applied to the oil and gas industry over the next 45-plus years .

Jack Henry West was born April 7, 1934, in Washington, D .C . The family settled in Portland, Oregon, in 1947 and Jack graduated from high school in 1952 . He enrolled in Portland State College and later transferred to the University of Oregon and received his B .S . in geology in December 1956 .

Jack served honorably in the United States Marine Corps during 1957 and 1958 . He then returned to the University of Oregon and received his M .S . in

geology in 1961 . While in graduate school, Jack interviewed with Texaco and accepted a position as a geologist in their Bakersfield office .

Importantly, while Jack was in graduate school he met his wife-to-be, Bonnie . They were married in 1961 and live in Bakersfield, California . They have two sons, Trent and Todd, and are also blessed with two grandchildren .

Jack’s work experience as a petroleum geologist has spanned more than 45 years . He was with Texaco for 17 years primarily involved with oil and gas exploration and development in California and Alaska . Since 1978 he has worked for and as a consultant to various companies on the oil and gas potential of onshore and offshore basins within California .

Jack West has been a member of AAPG since 1962 . Over the past four decades, his contributions to the geologic profession through the Association are most noteworthy .

He was president of the Pacific Section in 1988-1989 and was the Pacific Section representative to the AAPG Advisory Council from 1991-1994 .

He received the Pacific Section’s highest award, Honorary Life Member, in 1997 and AAPG awarded him Certificates of Merit in 1989 and 1994 . The Division of Professional Affairs (DPA) presented Jack their Distinguished Service Award in 1989 and a Certificate of Merit in 2003 .

The guidelines for the Distinguished Service Award emphasize “long term, meaningful service to AAPG and the activity be specific .” Jack West fulfills these guidelines and justly deserves this prestigious Award .

Grover E. Murray Memorial Distinguished Educator Award

J. Frederick ReadCitation: To J. Fred Read, in recognition of his outstanding achievements as an educator and researcher, whose enthusiasm and

insight are an inspiration to students and colleagues.

Fred Read received his undergraduate and graduate education at the University of Western Australia in Perth . During his Honors year he and two other students had the opportunity to work in the Carnavon Basin on the well-exposed Paleozoic carbonates .

His honors project was a joint mapping project along the basin margin, followed by a study of the Carboniferous mixed carbonate and clastic rocks with the support of West Australian Petroleum (WAPET) and Murray Johnstone .

He earned his Ph .D . in 1970, working under Brian W . Logan on Holocene and Pleistocene carbonate sediments of Shark Bay, one of the classic modern carbonate environments (published as AAPG Memoirs 13 and 22) . He then did post-doctoral research on the cyclic back-reef facies of the classic Devonian reef complex, Canning Basin, Western Australia .

He has been at Virginia Tech since 1973 and is a full professor . He and his students have worked on evolution of passive carbonate margins in the U .S . Cambro-Ordovician, the Triassic of Hungary, the Tertiary of the eastern U .S . and the Early Proterozoic of Canada .

They have studied foreland basin carbonates in the Middle/Late Ordovician, the Siluro-Devonian and the Mississippian in the Appalachians, Illinois Basin, and the western U .S . He presently is associated with projects in the Late Paleozoic and Mesozoic of Croatia and the Middle East .


AWARDS AND HONORS

Fred’s research group at Virginia Tech also has been involved in computer stratigraphic modeling, cyclostratigraphy and documenting the sequence stratigraphic signature of global ice-house, transitional and greenhouse worlds and its implications for reservoirs (published as an SEPM Short Course) . They also have studied regional calcite cementation in shallow aquifer to deep burial settings in Paleozoic carbonates, and also developed models for early dolomitization in peritidal settings and documented resetting of early dolomites by burial processes .

Fred was an AAPG distinguished lecturer 1989-1990, and has taught numerous short courses for AAPG, SEPM, GSA and industry groups . He is also the author of the widely-cited AAPG paper that provided the first comprehensive classification of carbonate platforms and which was an AAPG Short Course for several years .

He and his students have twice received the Outstanding Paper Award, “Journal of Sedimentary Research .” He received the Outstanding Educator Award, Eastern AAPG in 2005, and the Pettijohn Medal for Excellence in Sedimentology in 2007 . The focus of much of their present work involves developing techniques for defining high-resolution sequence stratigraphy and reservoirs in Late Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Tertiary rocks using core and well data, and tying this to global climate . He and his students have had almost continuous NSF support for their research over the last 35 years, as well as PRF-ACI support .

Grover E. Murray Memorial Distinguished Educator AwardFinn Surlyk

Citation: To Finn Surlyk, in recognition of his infectious passion for geology and his unwavering support and dedication to his students. He has been more than

just a teacher to so many students; he has also been the inspiration and role model for a life in geology.

Finn Surlyk is that special breed of teacher who comes along only rarely . He is on the one hand a world-renowned and highly respected researcher, having published more than 170 peer-reviewed papers and, on the other hand, and arguably more importantly, he has been a teacher and a mentor to many young students and made a huge difference in so many lives .

He has supervised about 80 postgraduate students over the years and has taught his students the meaning of doing a job right and not accepting short cuts or half-baked answers . And he has taught them the meaning and value of loyalty, in each instance not with words, but by his actions and deeds .

The stories of Finn’s loyalty to his students coupled with a demanding drive for excellence are legendary . One former student tells the story of how Finn filled up a bus with her fellow students and drove for three hours to a reception in recognition of her first job . He said, “…it was an obligation to go and make it a happy day!” Another former student observed, “…even though he at first seems to be a very strict professor, we all know that he is the most loving and warm-hearted mentor you could wish for . He cares for us and always points out our most positive attributes to other colleagues .”

Finn’s attempts at a stern exterior are simply a transparent mask to a kind and caring person; the stern exterior never endures long . After examining a first-year student, Finn approached the student with her grade . He looked very angry and said: “You almost gave me a heart attack . You had better speak in half-speed next time!” Clearly his tough external demeanor is an act that everyone sees through in a heartbeat! Finn has always managed to strike a balance between being demanding and

being compassionate and caring, the hallmark of an inspirational mentor .

Clearly Finn is a teacher who embodies the very essence of what it means to be a teacher whose mission is to train bright young people; wise, loyal, demanding, inspiring—a true role model . Through his years at the Geological Survey of Greenland and at the University of Copenhagen, he has created an atmosphere of dedicated learning and has instilled a great love for the science of sedimentology . I can think of very few teachers as deserving of this award as Finn is; he is truly the type!

AWARDS AND HONORS

Public Service AwardOwen R. HopkinsCitation: Honoring exploration geologist Owen R. Hopkins, whose enthusiasm for “planting the seeds of geologic curiosity” led him to

initiate a plan for placing geologic maps in thousands of elementary schools nationwide.

Owen Hopkins was born June 23, 1947, in Shawnee, Oklahoma . After he graduated from high school in 1965, Owen enrolled in the University of Oklahoma where, in his third semester, he took a course in geology . “That class changed my life,” he says . “I made my first college A, and I called my mother and said, ‘Mom, I’m going to be a geologist!’”

After earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Geology at OU, Owen took a job with Chevron Oil Company, first in Lafayette, Louisiana, and later in New Orleans . In 1977, he earned a Master’s in Geology from Tulane University . Later that year, he moved to Corpus Christi, Texas, where he worked for Holly Energy, Sexton Oil and Harkins & Company .

In 1990, he helped form Suemaur Exploration and Production, LLC, working as a geologist initially, then chief geologist, and finally to vice-president exploration until February 2005, when he retired from active management . He remains a partner with the company .

When he became president of the Corpus Christi Geological Society in 2006, Owen decided his project as president would have to do with science education . “I wanted to help plant seeds of scientific and geologic curiosity,” he says . “If students can have their interest piqued when they’re young, who knows where that could lead?”

He began a program to have laminated, framed U .S . Geological Survey Time and Terrain Maps of the United States mounted prominently and permanently

in all the elementary schools in the Coastal Bend . Enthusiasm for the project quickly grew beyond the Coastal Bend . Today, maps have been placed in schools throughout Corpus Christi, but also in Austin, San Antonio, Midland and Houston, as well as in Louisiana, Alabama, Oklahoma and California .

As a part of the program, and as a way of finding out what students are learning from his presentations, Owen requests that they write follow-up notes . One recent message from a fifth-grade girl read, in part, “I really appreciate your donating a map to the fifth graders . I think it is really cool that you are a geologist . My dad is only a doctor .”

—Jan Williams

Pioneer Award James D. Lowell Citation: To James D. Lowell for establishing the concept of structural styles in petroleum exploration and placing them in a plate tectonic framework

and for educating countless explorationists across the globe in the application of structural geology to exploration and production.

After receiving a B .Sc . at the University of Nebraska, James Lowell received a Ph .D . under Marshall Kay at Columbia University in 1958 . The first 18 years of his career were with three companies: He began with Amoseas, a joint venture of Chevron and Texaco, in Libya, The Netherlands and Spitsbergen; he then worked for Exxon in both research and exploration out of Houston and Denver; he went on to be manager of geology with Northwest Exploration in Denver . It was while setting up the first schools in structural geology for Exxon with Tod Harding that he and Harding collaborated in developing the structural styles concept .

His early company assignments gave him a broad exposure to worldwide geology .

This period happened to coincide with the plate tectonic revolution and he was an early adopter . He saw clearly how geologists could benefit from considering geologic structures in a plate tectonic context . Google him with structural styles, wrench faults, thrust belts, basin inversion, Red Sea, Spitsbergen etc ., and you will find a substantial publication record .

Between Amoseas and Exxon, Jim spent a year teaching at Washington and Lee University (1965-1966) . Although he didn’t continue in the academic world, he did continue teaching, since 1976 as a consulting geologist instructing in nearly 200 hundred popular classroom and field courses for OGCI and for many different companies, as a visiting professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Nebraska and as an Esso Australia distinguished lecturer . Topics included exploration, seismic interpretation of structure and especially structural geology for which he wrote a well regarded textbook, Structural Styles in Petroleum Exploration .

He has also consulted for more than 40 clients, including several national oil companies, on exploration problems on every continent except Antarctica; time consulting and exploring has actually far exceeded time spent teaching . He has worked in and visited some 125 countries during his career .

Along with these rent-paying activities, he has served the RMAG and the AAPG in holding office and in committee assignments and distinguished lectureships . He also served on the safety panel of the Ocean Drilling Program . His expertise and winning personality have led to a very successful career . Jim and Suzanne live in Denver . They have four daughters and seven grandchildren . As befits a pioneer, they have forged, over 50+ years, a very strong, loving family bond .

AWARDS AND HONORS

Wallace E. Pratt Memorial AwardJoseph A. Cartwright, Mads Huuse and Andrew Aplin

“Seal Bypass Systems” is a comprehensive review of a diverse set of geological structures that breach sealing sequences and allow fluids to flow vertically or subvertically across a seal, potentially negating predictions of sealing capacity based exclusively on flow properties . These structures are classified into three main groups based on seismic interpretational criteria: (1) fault related, (2) intrusion-related and (3) pipe-related . The paper explores the ways in which each group exhibits different modes of behavior with different scaling relationships between flux and dimensions, and discusses how these can have different short and long-term impacts on seal behavior .

Examples are presented that show direct evidence of highly focused vertical or sub-vertical fluid flow from subsurface reservoirs up through the seal sequence with leakage internally at higher levels or to the surface as seeps . Failure to recognize these features and risk them appropriately can lead to costly errors in exploration .

Joe Cartwright has been a research professor at Cardiff University since 1999 . He worked for Shell International as an exploration geophysicist

from 1980-1984, and was involved in exploration campaigns in Denmark and Brunei . He was at Imperial College as a senior lecturer until 1999, and was appointed honorary professor of the Institut Francais du Petrole in 1998 .

J. C. “Cam” Sproule Memorial AwardDavid R. Pyles

The J . C . “Cam” Sproule Memorial Award, presented to the AAPG member 35 years old or younger at the time of submittal who authors the best paper published during the year by the association or any affiliated society, division, or section, is awarded to David R . Pyles for “Architectural Elements in a


AWARDS AND HONORS

Ponded Submarine Fan, Ross Sandstone, Ireland .”

The goal of the paper was to describe the stratigraphic architecture of ponded submarine fan strata in order to aid in the interpretation of subsurface data in ponded strata of structurally confined submarine fans . To address this goal the paper focused on defining the architectural elements that fill the Carboniferous Ross Sandstone, which is an ancient submarine fan that filled a structurally confined basin of similar shape and size to northern Gulf of Mexico minibasins . Four architectural building blocks are defined in the formations: channels, lobes, slumps and mudstone sheets . Channels and their genetically related lobes are documented to stack in a hierarchical manner . Together these channel-lobe elements filled the basin in an aggradational pattern . The paper also focused on the axis-to-margin facies associations for each element as well as dimensional data for each . The paper further defined unique attributes of architectural elements that allow them to be distinguished using one-dimensional data, including core, gamma-ray and dip-magnitude .

David Pyles is the technical research project manager for the Chevron Center of Research Excellence (CoRE) and a research professor in the

Department of Geology and Geological Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines . David is working together with his colleagues to improve the understanding of structure/stratigraphy interactions in deep-water settings . To address this goal, they are studying outcrops of several deep-water systems around the world . The studied basins range in size from small (5-km diameter) basins to large (>200-km diameter) basins with tectonic growth rates that range from high to low . His goal is to collect data from basins that span the

natural variability that exists in deep-water reservoirs around the world and to use these data to develop empirical rules for how basins fill in response to various boundary conditions .

George C. Matson Memorial AwardMark Knackstedt

The George C . Matson Memorial Award for the best paper presented during an AAPG oral technical session is presented to Mark Knackstedt for “Carbonate Petrophysical Parameters Derived from 3-D Images .”

Mark Knackstedt was awarded a B .S . in 1985 from Columbia University and a Ph .D . in chemical engineering from Rice University in 1990 . He is professor

and head of the Department of Applied Mathematics at the Australian National University (ANU) and a visiting professor at the School of Petroleum Engineering at the University of NSW (UNSW) .

His research has focused on development of 3-D tomographic imaging analysis methods and modeling transport, elastic and multiphase flow properties of complex materials . His recent focus has been on coupling this 3-D analysis method to conventional rock typing descriptors used by geologists and petrophysicists .

In 1999, Mark initiated a large collaborative effort between the two Australian Universities . The research program had three focus areas; first, the development of a leading edge experimental micro-CT facility for imaging of materials in 3-D; and secondly, the establishment of a research group focused on the development of optimised algorithms for handling large-scale 3-D data and analyzing the structural and textural features of rock in 3-D . The third focus was the deveopment of numerical simulators for predicting key

geophysical and petrophysical properties from 3-D image data . Based on this foundational work, in 2005 the ANU/UNSW group initiated the Digital Core Consortium . The consortium members include ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP, Shell, Total, Saudi Aramco, Schlumberger, Baker Hughes, BHP Billiton, Japan Oil and Gas, ADCO, Petronas and Maersk Oil and Gas . The ongoing research program currently encompasses more than 25 staff and students .

He was a distinguished speaker for the SPWLA (2007-2008) and awarded the SPWLA Annual Logging Symposium Best Paper in 2004 .

Jules Braunstein Memorial AwardTim Dooley, Michael Hudec and Martin Jackson

The Jules Braunstein Memorial Award for the best AAPG poster presentation is presented to Tim Dooley, Michael Hudec and Martin Jackson for “Dismembered Sutures Formed During Asymmetric Salt-sheet Collision .”

The poster presentation summarized some 25 scaled physical models on salt-sheet advance and suturing conducted over the past three years by the lead author . The authors focused on salt-sheet suturing because this topic had been largely ignored in physical modeling laboratories, and because imaging problems tend to obscure suture trails within salt sheets . Sutures between salt sheets document the collision between salt bodies sourced from different feeders and thus elucidate sub-salt structure . Some suture trails are also drilling hazards, so applying this research can help mitigate drilling risk .

Initial models, run in 2005, focused on symmetric, direct, collision between salt bodies . The authors tested modeling techniques, such as passive markers embedded within the salt analog to track internal flow . A mixture of brittle modeling materials allowed roof densities


AWARDS AND HONORS

not to exceed those of salt, which would be unrealistic for the shallow burial depths of advancing salt sheets . Once modeling techniques were optimized, they experimented with variable roof thicknesses, asymmetric advance, 3-D salt flow and diachronous suturing . In asymmetrically advancing sheets, suture trails are formed from the roof of the overridden salt sheet . Furthermore, suture trails do not necessarily connect back to the original point of collision because trails can be torn and translated great distances as one salt sheet overrides another . Geometries in the models are similar to those on seismic data, so appear to offer a realistic explanation for suture genesis and evolution .

Tim Dooley received his Ph .D . from the University of London in 1994 and spent the next nine years with the Fault Dynamics Research Group at

Royal Holloway University of London . He has conducted experiments studying structural processes since 1988 . Tim joined the Applied Geodynamics Laboratory (AGL), a research group on salt tectonics, at The University of Texas at Austin in 2003, where he manages the physical modeling laboratories . Since joining the AGL, his focus has been on salt tectonics using innovative modeling, analytical and graphical techniques . Current research interests include the growth, advance and coalescence of salt sheets, salt-stock canopy systems, strike-slip deformation above salt and the effects of shortening on salt diapirs .

Mike Hudec received his Ph .D . from the University of Wyoming in 1990, and spent the next eight years at Exxon Production Research, where he specialized

in salt tectonics, extensional tectonics and seismic interpretation . He moved to Baylor University in 1997 as an assistant professor in structural geology .

In 2000, Mike moved to the Bureau of Economic Geology . He is co-director of the Applied Geodynamics Laboratory, an industry-funded research consortium studying salt tectonics . His current research interests include advance mechanisms for salt sheets, processes in minibasin initiation, configuration of the Louann salt basin in the deep-water Gulf of Mexico and construction of a digital atlas of salt tectonics .

Martin Jackson established and co-leads the Applied Geodynamics Laboratory, a research group on salt tectonics at The University

of Texas at Austin . Honors include AAPG’s Sproule Award, Matson Award and Dott Award . His early career interests include lunar structures, mineral exploration, and Precambrian geology . His current research blends 3-D seismic interpretation, modeling and field work focusing on allochthonous salt sheet advance in the Gulf of Mexico, folded evaporite canopies in the Canadian High Arctic, intra-salt Messinian shortening in the eastern Mediterranean, salt tectonics on Mars and plate-kinematic reconstruction of terrestrial salt basins .

Gabriel Dengo Memorial AwardCharles Kerans

The Gabriel Dengo Memorial Award is given each year in recognition of the best AAPG paper presented at the previous year’s international conference . This year the award is presented to Charles Kerans for “Carbonate Grainstone Geobody Occurrence and Organizations .”

Carbonate grainstones are a critical producing facies of many carbonate reservoirs . The 4-D distribution of grainstone bodies adds greatly to permeability heterogeneity of reservoir systems . This paper provided a survey of the geometric parameters of Permian, Pennsylvanian, Jurassic and Cretaceous grainstones . The focus is on ramp

systems where grainstones can be divided into foreshore-shoreface, barrier-inlet-lagoon and sharp-based shoreface systems . Each has characteristic geometries and the synthesis provided suggests that their distribution may be predictable within a sequence/systems tract framework .

Charles Kerans is currently Goldhammer chair of carbonate geology at the Department of Geological Sciences, Jackson School of

Geosciences, The University of Texas at Austin . From 1985-2005, Charlie was a senior research scientist at the Bureau of Economic Geology at UT where he developed and co-led the Carbonate Reservoir Characterization Research Laboratory . His areas of focus are in carbonate sequence stratigraphy and reservoir characterization, with an emphasis on integrating outcrop analog information for improved understanding of the subsurface .

Charlie has been both a domestic and international AAPG distinguished lecturer . He also won the Pratt award from AAPG for best paper in the AAPG Bulletin in 1994 (first author) and in 2005 (second author) . He is currently engaged in study of carbonate reservoir analysis in the Middle East, West Texas and in South America, and supervises research on carbonate stratigraphy and sedimentology .

Ziad Beydoun Memorial AwardS. George Pemberton F.R.S.C.

The Ziad Beydoun Memorial Award is given each year in recognition of the best AAPG poster presented at the previous year’s international conference . This year, the award is presented to S . George Pemberton for his poster presentation “The Role of Bioturbation in Low Permeability Gas-charged Reservoirs .” His co-authors were Murray Gingras of the University of Alberta’s Department


AWARDS AND HONORS

of Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, and James MacEachern of Simon Fraser University’s Earth Sciences department .

In the past, trace fossil research in hydrocarbon reservoir rocks was almost exclusively restricted to exploration geology; however, recent research shows that ichnology has significant applications in production geology as well . Overlooking the potential impact of heterogeneities caused by burrowing can lead to inaccurate assessment of the flow characteristics of a reservoir and misidentification of permeability streaks . This is especially important in gas-prone reservoirs, where slight variations in permeability can affect storativity, reserve calculations and resource deliverability . An understanding of how burrow-associated heterogeneities control fluid flow within sedimentary units is necessary, if production from bioturbated reservoirs is to be optimized .

George Pemberton received his Ph .D . degree from McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, in 1979 . He is currently a Canada research chair in

petroleum geology in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Alberta . The main thrust of his research pertains to the application of ichnology (animal-sediment relationships) to petroleum exploration and exploitation and its use in sequence stratigraphy . Recent work has been done on the application of ichnology to the flow of fluids through the reservoir in both clastic and carbonate settings .

His work has been recognized by a number of awards including: the Past President’s Medal (1994), Geological Association of Canada; he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 2001; he was awarded the 2003 R . C . Moore Medal for Excellence in Paleontology, presented by the Society for Sedimentary Research; and was the recipient of the 2008 Grover

Murray Distinguished Educator Award presented by AAPG . He has actively worked on major hydrocarbon bearing units in Australia, Taiwan, China, Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Gulf of Mexico, Japan, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Venezuela, Columbia, Trinidad, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, the United States and Alaska, the North Sea, Algeria, Qatar, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Angola, India and Nigeria . This work has been done in conjunction with most of the largest multi-national and national oil companies in the world

Distinguished Member of the House

Susan M. LandonCitation: To Susan Landon whose devotion to AAPG and the House of Delegates transcends all extra effort and physical hardship required in

order to participate in her cherished Annual and Section meetings.

Susan M . Landon is honored for her long-time participation in the House of Delegates, and particularly for recent re-entry into HoD service . Her dedication is out of the ordinary, having fought her

way back from a near fatal head injury in 2005 . It requires a major physical effort for Susan to attend conferences, which can tire the best of us, but Susan does it with great determination and never a complaint . She takes great joy in “being there” and her geologic associations and contributions continue to sustain her, at a time when 60 percent of her waking hours are still filled with necessary physical and occupational therapy .

Susan’s numerous contributions to AAPG and to the global geological community have been detailed in her 1995 Distinguished Service Citation and her 2000 Honorary Membership Citation and, though prolific and continuous, none compare to the effort she has directed toward returning to her life as a geologist .

As she struggled to leave the hospital in 2006 some of her first ventures were to local geologic luncheons with the Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists . Later, when she was finally freed from a wheel chair and various tubes, she ventured immediately off to Montana for an AAPG section meeting and field trip! Her first return to an Annual Meeting in 2007 was a joyous landmark for her, able to see and enjoy the community of geologists that she treasures so greatly . Her re-election and service as a delegate to the HoD has given her an added inspiration to continue the participation she has so long cherished .

Those of us that have known Susan for most of her career, recognize that geology in many ways has given her the will to push on and continue her uphill battle . She thrives on attending technical sessions and workshops . For all the years of service she delivered to the geologic community, it is remarkable to find that geology is giving something back to her, providing the impetus for her return .
