Julian Moore holds a BSc in Geological Sciences from the University of Plymouth, UK, and MSc in Petroleum Geochemistry and PhD in Geology (sedimentology & petrophysics) both from the University of Newcastle, UK. He has served as the Chief Technical Officer of Applied Petroleum Technology (APT) Group, a Norwegian organic geochemistry lab and associated consultancy.
Prior to working for APT Group, Julian worked for BP Exploration, where he completed the Challenge Graduate program, before working in a variety of roles, including a secondment into the Reliance-BP JV and a role on the Exploration Assurance team. As APT CTO Julian took on a wide range of activities from day-to-day management of operations, to accounts to business strategy and product development. Julian is a co-developer of Girasol, a well site gas interpretation software developed jointly with Tim Dodd (ex-BP). He has led two industry funded R&D projects, the first was on geochemical maturity parameters and more recently he has led an R&D project into GPC-RI-UV technology combined with machine learning methods to predict petroleum physical properties from both flowed petroleum samples and from solvent extracts from rock samples. Dr. Moore has recently returned to BP, where he serves as Senior Geoscientist.
