Helium One Group Ltd has appointed Lorna Blaisse as principal geologist.
Ms Blaisse is a skilled petroleum geologist with 15 years’ experience in exploration and appraisal across Africa.
She has direct experience of rift basin geology, conducting work in the Lake Albert Rift Basin in Uganda, as well as operational experience managing exploration campaigns in North and East Africa.
As principal geologist, Ms Blaisse will assist with day-to-day supervision of the drilling and seismic programme.
This will allow current technical director Josh Bluett to step back into an advisory role.
The appointment will allow Helium One to bring seismic interpretation in house, granting better control over the company’s geological modelling of the basin.
