Biography

Brenda has 30 years’ petroleum industry experience, specialising in lithostratigraphy and petroleum data management. As a stratigrapher, she has contributed to and project-managed several studies, gaining many years’ experience of the West African Margin, notably high-resolution lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic well to basin-scale analyses of Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and Ghana. Brenda has worked on lithological analyses and stratigraphic interpretations from many other regions, including the North Sea, South America, Middle East and North Africa. She has also participated in multi-disciplinary studies, including research of proven and potential source rocks of the Circum-Indian Ocean and Circum-Mediterranean regions. Since joining PetroStrat in 2011, Brenda has project managed a detailed correlation study of Cretaceous sand packages within part of the North Sea (Norwegian sector), involving the integration of multidisciplinary biostratigraphic and lithological data. She has also been involved in a vintage data correlation study of wells from Suriname, and in stratigraphic studies of wells from Gabon and Ghana. Brenda continues to provide lithological analyses of samples, and has recently been involved in the description and photography of cuttings samples from many Iraq wells and in field-scale lithofacies assignment of cuttings samples from a Jurassic reservoir of the North Sea. Brenda also worked for five years in petroleum data management, during which time she worked on a major well document archiving project and a variety of database products, including organic geochemistry, produced oils, checkshot data, and other well information. Brenda was also initially responsible for the first-stage design of the company’s project information management system (PIMS), researching and establishing a data model for ongoing database development.
