Mike Shepherd was born in Aberdeen and witnessed the arrival of the oil industry to the city in his teenage years. Later working for BP and Shell planning oil wells in the North Sea, his childhood dream of becoming a geologist was realised with over thirty years experience in the oil indus-try. His previous work includes the textbook Oil Field Production Geology, used for postgraduate study both in the UK and abroad.
