This one is with Ms. Jennifer Smith (Enos) from Ensign Natural Resources and Geochemist for Geomark Ms. Catherine Donohue. We talk about the value of understanding where your oil is actually coming from, which will help optimize the development of your acreage. We also talk about the re-frack industry and how this will be something to watch!

With one of the coolest booths to ever hit URTeC, we got to learn so much more about this company. From the technicians to the vision of the Business Development, to the CEO and his passion to run a great company.
Read MoreAndres is the North American Regional Manager for Geolog Internation. The company provides a lot of quality-controlled data from the rigs running around the world. Andres teaches us all about the Geolog services and gives us a great recap of his career thus far! Always keep moving, just one step at a time or the world will move on without you, his journey of all kinds of different experiences has led him to the Geolog family where he fits in naturally from our perspective. We’re rooting for this company and definitely keeping a close eye on what they are doing!
Read MoreDr. Chi Ly is one of the coolest and most unique individuals in the oil and gas business. He actually comes from the mining industry and listening to him talk about the rocks of the unconventional plays is always interesting! He helps run the Houston lab for Geolog Americas and he has a Ph.D. in geochemistry… The dude is the real deal
Read MoreURTeC is an Unconventional focused conference that happens once a year and it never disappoints. The folks at this event are dedicated to the idea that we can generate a lot of value from a part of the geologic system that for most of the history of oil and gas, the operators never thought could really work… We’re they wrong? or we’re they right? Time will tell, and until then, we’re going to be at this event talking with Dr. Susan Nash every single year! She is an innovator herself and someone that keeps a close watch on emerging sciences and technologies that are developing from the professionals working the unconventional reservoirs.
Read MoreThis episode is with an entrepreneur! Founder of Integrity insitu, a downhole geomechanical tool that can help constrain your regional and local stresses and strains in the rocks for many applications. His resilience is inspirational and the technology really got us thinking! Every rock on the planet is a record of time, the magic is figuring out what the strains were during the time of deposition AND what the current day stresses and strains are. Align these in your interpretation and you should be able to increase your probability of getting control of your frack heights, widths, and preferential directions. This is an essential data set to collect when developing and optimizing a field.
Read MoreIn the last 20 years, the rise and what some would say the fall of the unconventional resource play has happened. Who seen it coming? Not anyone that we know AND, the plays are not dead yet! We learned a lot about the rocks and how to explore and exploit the fluids in them. It’s a rising time in the industry globally, what will we see? Will the money merge, major acquisitions? Where are they going to go with the money, offshore, or onshore? We get to talk about all these ideas and especially what Canada has to say about all this!
Read MoreZircons are a key physical material to the Earth's past... Like, the beginning of Earth! Recent master of Geology graduate Dylan Morton goes through his thesis on how he used them to better understand the Cottage Grove sands in Oklahoma.

We also dove into the subject of MagmaChem, where it started, and some of the basics of how we use the models to explore natural resources. Lew has a Ph. D out of the Colorado School of Mines, he is someone to reach out to if you’re in Colorado and want to get involved with the societies and what’s happening in the mining and metals world.
