Mike Mueller
Vice President Analysis
Mueller has nearly 30 years of experience in geoscience technology research and development, with a focus on multicomponent seismic and seismic anisotropy. He delivered the first application of the ocean bottom seismic method at Azeri field in South Caspian (operated by BP), achieving a step change improvement in Azeri structural imaging and improved field development planning. He co-invented the dipole sonic shear anisotropy logging application which has become the industry standard for characterizing shear anisotropy in the borehole. He led a McKinsey and Company study on technology strategy and governance helping to develop and execute the strategic plan for unconventional gas resource progression and reserves production in North America for BP.
Mueller has authored numerous papers and abstracts in the area of seismic technology, two of which have been recognized by SEG editors for their fundamental contributions to the understanding and application of seismic anisotropy in the oil and gas industry. He has a B.S. in geophysics from Binghamton University and a M.S. in applied mathematics from the University of Houston.
