Dr. Peter Jackson, CERA Senior Director, Oil Industry Activity, is a widely respected authority on oil and gas production and upstream development. He combines expertise with practical experience in some of the world’s most important production areas.
At CERA, he is responsible for global oil capacity outlooks worldwide. A major component of his research is aimed at understanding current trends and challenges in productive capacity and reserves distribution, as well as forecasting which areas will become a focus for exploration and production (E&P) industry investment over the next 10 years.
He was principal author of CERA’s 2007 report Bumpy Road Ahead – Global Liquids Capacity to 2017. His most recent paper, Finding the Critical Numbers – What Are the Real Decline Rates for Global Oil Production?, was an important contribution to understanding the future of oil supply. He also has played a major role in developing CERA’s new E&P Trends Forum.
Dr. Jackson has 22 years of E&P experience with what were Britain’s two leading independent oil companies, Britoil and Enterprise Oil, as a geologist and manager. With Enterprise, he was President and General Manager of Enterprise Oil’s Gulf of Mexico business, which gave him extensive experience with deepwater development. He served as Chief Geologist for Enterprise, responsible for the worldwide view of prospects and development, during the period that Enterprise was the world’s largest independent oil company. He also gained extensive knowledge of E&P projects while working in the United Kingdom, Indonesia and Italy.
Dr. Jackson holds a B.Sc. from St. Andrews University and a Ph.D. from Edinburgh University. |
