Employment History
Prior to joining Durham University as as Professor of Geoenergy, Carbon capture and storage in 2009, a position sponsored by Dong-Ikon, I worked in the Petroleum Industry for 28 years and have experience working within teams within large multi-national companies and also in smaller companies, several of which I co-founded.
