Work Experience
Summary
Dr. Ross is
currently president of
Cross QI,
a quantitative interpretation consulting service company
involved with leading-edge, applied and integrated
geophysical interpretation and analysis techniques for
exploration and development. He has managed, led, and worked
as a team member for contractors and oil and gas companies.
His focus areas are, but not limited to,
predictive analytics of production metrics for
unconventional resources, seismic attributes, AVO modeling
and analysis, acoustic impedance and simultaneous inversion,
multi-attribute (neural network) inversion, azimuthal
anisotropy and fracture detection, VSP, time-lapse (4D)
monitoring, seismic overpressure prediction and
geostatistical projects, which have routinely improved
drilling success rates, reduced risk, and improved financial
positions.
Dr. Ross'
well-rounded processing and interpretation skills, coupled
with a pragmatic problem-solving style in geoscience and
associated disciplines has given him acute insight into
effective selection of appropriate applied technologies with
integrated and contemporary geoscience and engineering
practices. We look forward to
working with you! Contact us via email at
