In 2000, Galen joined Weinman Geoscience where he’s held the position of chief geophysicist and now, vice president. Galen’s main interests are direct hydrocarbon detection technology and azimuthal analysis for fracture detection. He’s given recent talks at the SEG in San Antonio, the SPG conference in Hyderabad, India and the RMAG conference in Denver. Galen sits on the Oil and Gas Committee at Ellison Miles Geotechnology Institute and has been part of the AVO paper review effort for the annual SEG convention.
