Expert is a leading expert in the energy industry with over 30 years of experience in the quantification of strategic issues, investment appraisal, and operations, in the power and the oil & gas industry. He has specialized for many years in the quantification and understanding of market issues and dynamics, notably in industries related to natural gas/LNG and electricity. His broad experience spans the globe and includes all aspects of the energy business, including risk management, exploration and drilling, refining operations, and the introduction of new energy technology—especially to reduce waste and increase inefficiencies and of course power. He regularly works with the management of large energy companies, on various topics, including market and price forecasting, improving operations and efficiency.

As an energy economist and a chartered electrical engineer, Expert. Expert has a unique skill set covering both technical and economic issues. He knows how the energy sectors work from the process and technical efficiency perspective, as well as from the market perspective. This has enabled him to develop and create forecasts and participate in discussions in many markets especially ones that are less liquid such as in emerging markets or are thinly traded ones.

Expert. Expert focuses on energy initiatives such as clean energy (including renewable), carbon emissions, efficiency projects, and flaring reduction. He provides advisory services, litigation support, software, data and forecasting services. Expert also works part-time for the World Bank on clean development mechanisms (CDM), carbon issues and financing, market forecasting, flaring reduction initiatives, small scale gas processing, gas compressor/pipeline implementations and distributed power projects. He also provides expert advice to the EU DG Clima on modeling, policy and data issues. Expert has held a number of technical, commercial and strategic roles at BP Exploration (1982 – 1992). This was followed by 8 years with Arthur Andersen leading a consultancy practice within the Petroleum Services Group. After leaving Arthur Andersen, Expert.

Expert. Expert has been analyzing the effects of technology on the oil and gas and associated industries for around twenty years. In doing so he has compiled databases and costs of a large variety of direct and complimentary technologies, both for software and hardware.

Although the technology itself is interesting, Expert is typically concerned with the impact on the cash-flows and performance of businesses, including the valuation of new technologies in an industry context.

His work has included
- Creation of specific technologies data bases
- Has developed a "network based methodology" for identifying the knock on effects of technologies
- Used Delphi studies to estimate future reductions in costs and perfromance of particular technologies
- Reviewed and analyzed spends on R & D and its impact on
- Provided strategic technology advice and consulting to a medium size Oil and Gas company
- Valuation of various technologies eg. Gas to Liquids, LNG, FLNG, Seismic processing, FGTL, Fraccing
- Future world studies - Carbon Consequences and valuation
- Advised government policy on technology research including a plan for a technology city center.
- Adjusted long term oil forecasts to take account of future technology gains.



Report on Carbon Emissions
In 2010 Energy-Redefined undertook a major analysis of the crude emissions of some 6000-7000 oil fields around the world.
