Background

About Zac Moore

Driven by a profound belief in the power of geoscience to unlock nature’s secrets, I am passionate about enhancing our understanding and management of the Earth's subsurface resources. My expertise lies in integrating geological, petrophysical, and regulatory frameworks to drive operational excellence in carbon sequestration, resource extraction, and environmental compliance. I am committed to pioneering innovative solutions that not only advance the energy industry but also uphold environmental stewardship. With a strong background in petroleum geology and subsurface evaluation, I specialize in well planning, development, and regulatory compliance for projects in complex geological settings, including the Powder River and Midland Basins. My experience extends to managing large-scale monitoring programs, including groundwater assessments, induced seismicity tracking, and air quality evaluations, ensuring alignment with EPA, CARB, and state regulatory requirements. I have successfully collaborated with regulatory agencies and third-party service providers, overseeing Class VI, CARB, Subpart RR, and FERC permitting processes to support carbon sequestration initiatives. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a results-driven approach to optimizing geoscience operations. I led the development of novel wellbore stability models that reduced drilling days by 42% year-over-year and managed geoscience operations for over 85 horizontal wells in the south Midland Basin, significantly improving economic and operational efficiency. Additionally, my leadership in a multidisciplinary carbon sequestration project showcased my ability to integrate geological, engineering, and regulatory workflows to drive sustainable energy solutions. I thrive in dynamic environments that require multitasking across regulatory documentation, compliance reporting, and permitting strategies. My ability to synthesize large regulatory documents, provide technical oversight, and coordinate regulatory submittals positions me to contribute meaningfully to carbon sequestration and gas storage initiatives. I am eager to leverage my technical expertise, regulatory acumen, and leadership skills to support forward-thinking energy and environmental solutions.
