About Andrew Forbes McIntosh

Talents (only 3): curious, creative, caringSkills: 2D/3D mapping, analytics, AVO, Inversion, Rock Physics, modeling, seismic stratigraphy, borehole, petroleum systems, synthetics, depth conversion, seismic acquisition, seismic processing, workflows, software development, major studies, prospects, risk and uncertainty, complex geology, prestack interpretation, reservoir characterization, geophysical/geological interpretation toolkit.I am an explorer by nature and I collaborate well with others to identify and secure quality and material opportunities. For many years I have worked as a Geophysical Advisor so I bring a breadth of global experience in innovation, generation, framing, advising, executing and delivering value to integrated subsurface projects. I am a proven leader who promotes, develops and evaluates new technologies. I am an experienced supervisor who has learned to drive performance by developing trust amongst my colleagues by investing the time it takes to really know them as individuals. I enjoy working in a team and I am a respectful coach and mentor to colleagues and junior staff. My time as a manager has taught me to keep my eye on the prize and succeed by being an ethical win-win negotiator around the boardroom table.Technically I am a highly energetic and professional seasoned geophysicist specialist whose hands-on expertise is focused on seismic imaging and the extraction and interpretation of structural, stratigraphic, and rock and fluid properties from surface and borehole seismic and the use of multi-disciplinary collaboration and analytics to quantify the economic opportunity and the associated risks and uncertainties. An outcome oriented team player and proven oil finder with exceptional skills in the areas of applied geophysical technology, innovation, project management, leadership, decision making, communication, information sharing, mentoring, and value generation.
