About

With over 20 years of experience in business development for global oil & gas exploration technologies, I specialize in helping international contracting companies succeed in the Indian energy market. Since 2005, I’ve represented leading US and UK software and services providers across seismic acquisition, interpretation, reservoir analysis, and AI-based geoscience platforms and brought them directly to end users at ONGC, Oil India, Vedanta, GAIL, and other top Indian operators. Some of my key achievements include: → Managing multi-million USD sales of multi-client seismic data for ION Geophysical over a 10-year span → Driving license sales for MESA under both ION and Sercel from 2015 to 2023 → Successfully introducing and scaling DAKS reservoir analog software in India since 2005 What sets me apart is a hands-on, honest, and highly personalized sales approach. I engage directly with technical decision-makers- exploration geophysicists, geologists, and procurement teams to understand their challenges and tailor solutions from my principals accordingly. Whether it's navigating local tendering, offering strategic positioning, or enabling proof-of-concept pilots, I bring market intelligence, cultural alignment, and a proven network to every engagement. If you’re looking to expand your oil & gas technology business in India, with someone who knows the terrain and speaks the language on both sides, I’d be happy to explore how I can help.
