How to be good oil finder? Part 2





What is an oil finder?
Oil finders are people who have not only found oil or gas but who seem to have a nose for it and feel it’s present.

Anyone wishing to become an oil finder should have especial characters and useful.
·         Get a good education, work with an oil finder mentor, study oil and gas field case histories, and use every scrap of information.
·         Love the excitement of the oil industry.
·         Study what oil finders have written. 4. Know that finding oil requires endless effort.

·          Educate yourself widely in geology, geophysics, and engineering.

What do you think about finder petroleum skills?
It is much more a learned skill than a natural talent. However, a good oil finder must be an optimist. He has to believe that he can find prospects that others overlook in order to be effective.
Most do not want to be oil finders, or at most it is a secondary objective. Also, most explorationists think they already know how to do it—they don’t!

A skilled practitioner employs controlled, creative imagination. The control consists of utilizing all geological and geophysical data available. Creative imagination involves the application of a broad academic and experience background. I will be grateful for luck but to depend on it is no better than your chances of hitting a moving target with a dart in a high wind

What is period of time you need to be good oil finder?
At least five or more years’ experience. Many oil finder said they are most productive now, indicating they feel experience is critical.

What has motivated oil finder in their career, and what do you think are the most important motivating factors in general?

The excitement of the hunt; money is nice, but it isn’t the real motivator.

I believe motivation and the best scientific oil finders come from a basic love, understanding, and appreciation of their science, as well as the exploration business, i.e., playing the game for the game’s sake

How did you learn to find oil? Did someone teach you, or were you largely self-taught?

Although earlier the respondents said mentors were very important, I believe it were self-taught.
