Personal Statement
Recently I have completed my masters in geology from the University of Alberta. I have about 10 years diversified
oil industry experience and have served British Petroleum (Pakistan), Tullow Pakistan (Developments) Limited ,
OMV G.m.b.H Exploration and Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL). I have been involved in exploration and
development activities starting from well monitoring to seismic interpretation. In addition to in-house G&G work I
participated in a number of field excursions for surface geological mapping and section measurements for the
evaluation of the reservoir and the source rocks.
