Darin R. Knowlton - Global Fueld Systems Advisor at ExxonMobil

EDUCATION:  Deer Park High School - 1983 University of Texas at Austin, BS in Civil Engineering University of Texas at Austin, BS in Civil Engineering

My favorite college memories include the balance of classroom and hands-on activities that helped bring home the key points of the class objectives.  I started working for Exxon (now ExxonMobil) directly after receiving my Masters degree. I’ve had a 27-year career involving multiple projects traveling to different parts of the world.   While I studied civil engineering, I understood the opportunities that existed in the petroleum industry, and the SPE helped me see those opportunities. My advice to students is to recognize the power that this award provides you, and use it to help open as many opportunities as you want.  Contact me at darin.r.knowlton@exxonmobil.com.
