Chris started in the oilfield with Baker Hughes wireline in 2006 in Aberdeen. He progressed to Senior Field Engineer in his first six years. During this time, he specialised in open-hole and cased hole services with a focus on RCX and other front-end services.
Chris worked as an independent wireline witness for the following six years whilst undertaking two MSC’s in Petroleum Engineering and International business Management. His client list included Ineos, Apache, Nexen, Hunt, and Murphy.
Since 2017, Chris has worked as an engineering advisor to Probe technologies, a global leader in downhole production and reservoir monitoring technologies.
He joined one&zero at the end of 2018 to utilise his extensive knowledge, providing one&zero’s clients with quality advice in relation to the planning, preparation and execution of wireline operations.

Alistair started his career in 1993 and has since worked with a large number of IOCs. His technical strength lies in both open and cased-hole logging, deep water, perforation and seismic operations. He has worked globally; from the North Sea, to West Africa, the Far East and Brazil, gaining experience in operations management, contract and financial planning.

Alistair’s experience in wireline operations is built on his 18 years of field experience within Schlumberger. Following the completion of his degree at Heriott-Watt he was trained in open-hole and cased-hole services during his training period in Schlumberger. He became a General Field Engineer in 2001. He was subsequently chosen to be a lead engineer for a number Schlumberger’s key clients globally, including Petronas and Exxon Mobil.

Following his extensive Schlumberger career, Alistair was given a role in BP who recognised his wealth of knowledge as a valuable asset. BP provided further training in petrophysics including the use of Techlog and specific training on cement bond log evaluation. His role in BP provided a solid basis for his current work with one&zero, providing expert support during the planning, preparation, execution and post-job phases of wireline logging operations.
