Biography
Laurent holds a Master’s degree in Geology and a PhD in numerical geosciences both from Nancy’s School of Geology, France. During his PhD he explored new techniques for modeling the impact of faults on fluid flow. He then joined Schlumberger where he developed a Petrel module for modeling fractured reservoirs. Since then he has been alternating between reservoir geologist roles, working on field development and exploration studies, and software product development responsibilities. Most notably, he defined the roadmap for renewing the modelling core of Petrel and designed the integration of the Volume-based Modeling, Depospace and Depogrid technologies into the reservoir modelling workflow. More recently, he has been working in Kuala-Lumpur, Malaysia as a consulting geologist specializing in fracture modeling and complex geomodeling studies. Laurent joined Rocksoft in 2015 as a Product Manager, taking care of Rocksoft product design and developping new approaches for integrating seismic information into reservoir models.
