major gas field expansion project in northern Montana and southern Saskatchewan.
Investigations included detailed cross-section work, subsurface mapping of structure and
various isopach data related to gas productivity. Conducted additional geological studies
of depositional environments as related to regional trends in Canada and the U.S. In

3. addition, provided geological input into gas reserves studies and economic analysis of the
play. Upon completion of the study, assisted in the establishment of two large federal
units.
o Marsh Operating Company: Denver, Colorado 1995-1996. Provided geological input
