Oil Patch Bits: CGG’s Hampson and Russell awarded with membership

Dan Hampson and Brian Russell of CGG were awarded honorary membership in the Geophysical Society of Houston during its 2014 Annual Honors and Awards Banquet.

Honorary membership in the GSH is conferred in recognition of a distinguished contribution to the geophysical profession. It is the highest award bestowed by the GSH and Hampson and Russell were the only recipients this year.

Hampson and Russell founded Hampson-Russell Software in 1987. When the company was acquired by Veritas DGC in 2002 and then by CGG in 2007, the founders continued their mission to deliver best-in-class seismic reservoir characterization software and services to the worldwide oil and gas industry. Today, Hampson serves as president, Hampson-Russell, which is now part of CGG GeoSoftware, with Russell as vice president for global Hampson-Russell sales, and both continue to guide the strategy and development of geoscience software within the CGG GeoSoftware organization.

Sophie Zurquiyah, senior executive vice president, Geology, Geophysics & Reservoir, CGG, said, “CGG is extremely privileged to have Dan Hampson and Brian Russell as key members of our GeoSoftware management team. They are shining examples to us all of true dedication to the advancement of our industry. They fully deserve the recognition they are regularly shown by our industry societies for their total commitment to innovation and their enthusiasm for sharing their knowledge and expertise for the benefit of the wider geophysical community.”
