Petroleum Club of Houston800 Bell St (43rd Floor) Houston TX 77002 11:30 AM "Professional Practices as they apply to Petroleum Geoscience: The Practical Application of Ethics”Professional practices, as they apply to petroleum geoscientists, are key and fundamental aspects of delivering on our promises and conducting ourselves in an ethical manner. Reliability in a geoscientist’s work is the cornerstone to building confidence in the product, whether it is a seismic interpretation, prospect map, resource or reserves estimate, to name a few. Reliability is increased when managers, companies and investors have the assurance that the information they are evaluating was professionally prepared.
This talk discusses “Professionalism and professional practices” in petroleum geoscience and highlights the important factors such as educational background, experience, knowledge of recommended practices, the use of advanced technology, and last but not least, personal values – Ethics. There is, of course, always uncertainty and risk associated with the exploration or development of hydrocarbons. However, the proper use of technology, recommended practices, industry wide standards and ethical/professional conduct not only can reduce risk and uncertainty, but can also provide to companies and investors the confidence needed to move forward with an exploration or development plan or program.
