I have 30 years industrial experience in supervising and acquiring data in new oil wells around the world, for many clients.

Throughout my career I have been teaching novices as they come out of (generally ; not exclusively) university and enter industry. I have had to acquire and explain a large variety of tool concepts for relating measurements we take to the practical problems of determining if an oil well is an economic proposition. While university courses cover a lot of this material, it isn't from an integration across subjects, whereas the real world does not respect the boundaries of academic disciplines. Integrating physical sciences is a skill in itself.
