About the Editors
*
David A. Budd is an Associate Professor of Geological Sciences at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He received B.A., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in geology from The College of Wooster, Duke University, and The University of Texas at Austin, respectively. Between 1983 and 1986 he was employed by ARCO Exploration and Production Technology Company where his primary duties involved reservoir characterization studies. Since 1987 he has been a professor in the Department of Geological Science at the University of Colorado. His research interests include the origin and diagenesis of carbonates, with special emphasis on the geochemistry of limestones, the relations between carbonate alteration and diagenetic pore fluids, and the application of diagenesis to the understanding of pore-system evolution and porosity heterogeneity in carbonate reservoirs and aquifers.

Arthur H. Saller currently works as a carbonate sedimentologist for UNOCAL Energy Resources in Brea, California. He did undergraduate studies at the University of Kansas (1974-1978), received a Master's degree from Stanford University in 1980, and a Ph.D. in geology from Louisiana State University in 1984. From 1984 to 1986, he worked as a Research Geologist with Cities Service Oil and Gas in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and he joined UNOCAL in 1986. At UNOCAL, Art teaches courses, performs technical service work, and conducts research related to exploration and development in carbonate rocks.
 
 

Paul M. (Mitch) Harris, a Senior Research Associate with Chevron Petroleum Technology Company in La Habra, California, does carbonate technical support projects, research, consulting, and training for the various operating units of Chevron. His work centers on facies-related, stratigraphic, and diagenetic problems that pertain to carbonate reservoirs and exploration plays. Mitch received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from West Virginia University and his Ph.D. from the University of Miami, Florida. He has worked in the oil industry since 1977 doing projects in most carbonate basins worldwide. He is active in AAPG and SEPM, having published numerous papers and edited several volumes on carbonates.
