EDUCATION: 

  • Needville High School - 2001
  • Texas A&M University - College Station, BS in Mechanical Engineering

I have worked as a Drilling and Completions Engineer for BP for the past 10-yrs. I am currently a Senior Completions Engineer (Deep-water Gulf of Mexico). This SPE GCS scholarship helped me to get an internship working offshore with Wood Group Production Technology. The internship (and subsequent internships) solidified my decision to pursue a full time position in the oil and gas industry. My advice to students is to obtain as much intern / industry experience as possible prior to graduating. Contact me at dale.pumphrey@bp.com
