CWSX, L.L.C. .

Strengths are in seismic interpretation and attribute analysis, working closely with sequence stratigraphy and reservoir characterization. Skilled in velocity and time depth conversions, synthetic seismograms, rock properties, well log correlation and well tie analysis, integrating geological data to deliver depth contoured structure maps.

Recommendation of drilling locations for exploration, field development and horizontal drilling programs. Extensive experience in both clastics and carbonate depositional systems in coastal, shelf and deepwater environments. Familiar with a variety of tectonic settings, including extensional, compressional and wrench faulting.
