The inventor of the Bismuth Plug, Bob has worked with bismuth alloy seals for almost 30 years. Bob serves as a technology developer for the oil industry, with activity in the exploitation of innovative technologies for Shell International and BP.
Before establishing Rawwater, he worked at UMIST (University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology), developing technologies in explosive cutting and cladding, corrosion, subsea engineering and well technology.
Bob's oilfield technologies include subsea reservoir injection systems, bismuth alloy well-sealing and forecasting tools for oilfield reservoir souring.
Head of Division – Scientific & Senior Research Scientist
Matt Streets
Head of Division – Scientific & Senior Research Scientist
Matt’s expertise lies in understanding and managing problems associated with microbiological biofouling in the upstream oil & gas industry. A regular speaker at key industry events, his areas of interest include oilfield reservoir souring, souring remediation and control, laboratory-based oilfield microbiology simulation studies, and oilfield reservoir souring forecasting and modelling.
As a highly respected microbiologist, Matt is acutely aware of the importance of providing Rawwater’s global client base with cost-effective treatment strategies to mitigate oilfield souring.
Senior Research Scientist
Leanne Walker
Senior Research Scientist
Leanne is a leading member of our microbiological souring services team. Working on behalf of major oil & gas operators and service companies, she researches the oilfield reservoir conditions that support and inhibit the growth of souring bacteria, as well as treatment strategies.
Working in association with the University of Manchester, she is leading our vital research into the microbiology of Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) environments. A vastly experienced microbiologist, Leanne runs our pressurised bioreactor suites and our predictive reservoir souring modelling program with Head of Division, Matt Streets.
