Welcome to my webpage!
Hi there! I’m Creties Jenkins, a Partner in the consulting firm ROSE Subsurface Assessment. We’re experts in the characterization of risk and uncertainty for subsurface energy projects. I joined ROSE in 2013 after spending 26 years with Tenneco Oil, ARCO, and DeGolyer & MacNaughton.
My specialty is the characterization of unconventional reservoirs, including tight sandstones and carbonates, shales, and coalseam gas. I’ve conducted integrated studies, peer reviews, and resource assessment work for dozens of companies around the world. Over the past three years, I've also been working to characterize subsurface risk and uncertainty for CO2 storage projects.
I’ve conducted more than 100 industry courses and workshops either solo or with my colleagues over the past decade focused on multiple topics including:
1. Evaluating Shales and Tight Oil and Gas Reservoirs (ESTOGR)
2. Unconventional Resource Assessment and Valuation (URAV)
3. Mitigating Bias, Blindness, and Illusion in Decision Making (BBI)
4. Play-based Assessment of Unconventionals (PBAU)
5. Quantifying Risk, Uncertainty and Chance in Subsurface CO2 Storage
You can discover more about these courses and workshops at our website: www.roseassoc.com. The courses are often coupled with consulting assignments, where we help clients evaluate projects using our experience and software tools www.roseassoc.com/software-overview/
I’ve also been involved in lots of Professional Society activities. I’ve served as a technical editor, distinguished lecturer and distinguished author for the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). I also served as president of the Energy Minerals Division of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG) who honored me with their Distinguished Service Award.
In 2016, I co-authored Monograph 4 for the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (SPEE) called Estimating Ultimate Recovery of Developed Wells in Low-Permeability Reservoirs. In 2017, I served on the Steering Committee for a multi-disciplinary Summit called Building and Applying the Universal Workflow for Low Permeability Oil and Gas Reservoirs. In 2019, my colleague Mark McLane and I wrote an Unconventional Resources Technology Conference (URTeC) paper called How Not to Squander Billions on Your Next Unconventional Venture. In 2023, I conducted three 1-day workshops for SPE called Mastering Uncertainty and Risk in Unconventional Reservoir Assessment in Denver, Wheeling and Brisbane.
In the Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) realm, I've given presentations in 2022 and 2023 at the annual SPE-AAPG-SEG CCUS conference in Houston, and am co-author of a 2024 London Geological Society paper called Long Term Risk Assessment of Subsurface Carbon Storage: Analogues, Workflow and Quantification. At ROSE, we're also busy building a comprehensive risking tool for CCUS projects.
I received a BSc in Geological Engineering and an MSc in Geology from the South Dakota School of Mines. I’m also a registered professional geoscientist and engineer in Texas. If you’re interested, a more detailed resume is available on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/creties-jenkins-565671/ )
If we at ROSE can be of any assistance in the realm of quantifying subsurface uncertainty and risk, please reach out. We'd appreciate the opportunity to engage you.
On a personal note, I live in Santa Barbara, California with my wife (Betty) and cat (Lily). My interests include hiking, travel, photography and the natural world. Retirement is still a few years off, after which I hope to join the Channel Islands Naturalist Corps.
Thanks for visiting!
