  Quinn R. Passey graduated from BrighamYoungUniversityin 1978 with a BS (Magna Cum Laude) in Geology, and continued his graduate studies at the California Institute of Technology with a M.S. (1979) and PhD (1982) in Planetary Science and Geology. Currently, he is the Senior Formation Evaluation Consultant for ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company (URC).

  He has numerous external publications on topics ranging from planetary geology, meteoroid breakup, earth-crossing asteroids, isostatic rebound, and various aspects of petrophysics – including papers on source rock evaluation from well logs, interpretation of high-angle and horizontal wells, and an AAPG book addressing thin-bed formation evaluation. He is recipient of the 2011 SPWLA Distinguished Technical Achievement Award, and has been an SPWLA Distinguished Speaker several times.

  Current research is on understanding the geological and petrophysical aspects of fine-grained reservoirs, a topic for which he is a 2012 AAPG Distinguished Lecturer, and he is currently developing an AAPG short course on this topic.
