Herve Farran
BCP Geosciences Consulting Director

I have more than 25 years of experience in the Oil and Gas industry, having worked with Schlumberger, a service company, and Shell, an international operator. I possess extensive knowledge of Exploration and Production cycles, including development, production optimization, and exploration within both established petroleum regions and emerging/frontier basins worldwide.
I have conducted analyses and evaluations of global basins and plays, ranking portfolios according to the company’s strategic objectives while considering all aspects of the opportunity maturation process. My background includes collaborations in Joint Ventures with National Oil Companies throughout the Middle East, as well as roles at global headquarters across four continents.
I have served in various capacities, from technical specialist in subsurface evaluation to leadership positions such as Team Leader, Regional Chief Geologist for the Middle East and Africa, and Business Opportunity Manager for exploration projects in conventional Oil and Gas. Throughout my career, I maintained strong hands-on skills in the entire subsurface evaluation workflow using software such as ArcGis and Petrel.
