Julian Chenin graduated from the UH EAS department with a B.S. in Geology in 2018, and with an M.Sc. in Geophysics from the University of Oklahoma. He is currently helping ROGII create new subsurface workflows through new integrations and partnerships. While at UH, Julian studied under Dr. Mike Murphy investigating the migration of the Yellowstone Hotspot. While completing his master’s degree, he worked with Dr. Heather Bedle to research machine learning applications for identifying gas hydrates and low saturation gas in seismic data. He loves the outdoors and any chance to cook BBQ!

David (Daveed) has a B.S. in geology from the University of Houston and a Ph.D. in Geosciences from the University of Texas at El Paso. At UH, he researched the Perdido Fold Belt and the Mexican Ridges in the Gulf of Mexico as part of the Conjugate Basins Tectonics and Hydrocarbons (CBTH) consortium. At UTEP, he focused on field exposures of salt diapirs and studied the depositional and deformational histories of sediment adjacent to the Onion Creek Salt Diapir near Moab, Utah, as part of the Salt Sediment Interactions Research Consortium (SSIRC). He currently works as a geologist at bp. In addition to being a geologist, David has volunteered with the World Petroleum Council, Houston Geological Society Student Expo, the IMAGE conference, and other events/professional societies where he is passionate about STEM and energy education and supporting students and young professionals throughout their development.
