(National Oil Company of Colombia) for the last 13 years. John is an applied geoscientist with ample experience in the integration of geological information with gravity, magnetics, seismic and remote sensing data in the search for hydrocarbons and ore deposits and in the assessment of environmental problems. He is also skilled in the use of instrumentation, interpretation software, GIS and data integration tools.
Adriana Chacon began working as the International Project Manager for the GEGEO (Guinea Equatorial GEOscience) program in April 2003. The GEGEO program is training Equatorial Guinean students in geology and geophysics in cooperation with the National University of Equatorial Guinea (UNGE) in Malabo. She attended USC's English Program for Internationals (EPI) for six months in 2001. Before coming to USC, Adriana worked in marketing and sales in Colombia for 11 years after receiving a degree in advertising and marketing from the Catholic University in Manizales.
