About your Expert Trainer : RICHARD ATTEWELL BSc MSc DUC
Senior Project Scientist, CGG DMS
Richard received an MSc in Micropalaeontology from London University in 1970 and immediately started as a
biostratigrapher in Llandudno, North Wales with Robertson Research International. He followed an
international career from the beginning, and worked for seven years in Singapore on a variety of projects where
biostratigraphy was combined with operations management responsibilities. Upon returning to the UK, he led
a dynamic team in creating innovative methods for stratigraphic analyses as well as reporting. Subsequent
secondments meant more international travel, training new staff members and growing the geoscientist teams.
Richard was drawn to data management through dealing with significant amounts of E&P data throughout his career and observing
first-hand, through his advice and consultancy expertise, many of the issues for which CGG DMS can now offer solutions. He is one of
our most experienced trainers and completed the PTLLS (Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector) training.
