5 Curriculum Vitae Woong Mo Koo 5 Software Skill A. Seismic interpretation software I have used seismic interpretation software such as Petrel and Kingdom actively since I can operate both systems independently for seismic interpretation and geological modeling without major assistance and manuals from producers. I was introduced to UNIX or Linux based systems such as SeisWorks and GeoFrame in early beginning of my job in Korea National Oil Corporation. However, due to not much experience on these systems, I can use them in basic level with manuals. B. Well logs interpretation software Interactive Petrophysics is my main well logs interpretation software. I even interpreted daily hydrocarbon saturated intervals with well logs frequently in drilling sites. I can also use PowerLog to interpret well logs in intermediate level with some help from manuals and / or producers. Language Proficiency A. Korean Native proficiency in Korean B. English Professional working proficiency in English. I had to work in English at the various sites for exploring hydrocarbons in overseas since Through these experiences, there are no significant difficulties on communication and discussion by English. C. Russian I can speak very basic Russian for surviving in Russian speaking countries.
