OUR REPUTATION SPEAKS FOR ITSELF We've worked really hard to establish our company as a quiet leader in innovative exploration and development. Since Vision's humble beginnings in 2000, the company has grown to become one of the most active, influential and experienced non-operating independents in the Gulf Coast. But attaining this achievement doesn't mean we've ever compromised our ethics, diligence, and work product. We haven't, and we never will. Of course, our stating these principles is one thing. Reading what our clients and associates have to say about our company is just as important. "Vision Exploration LLC is a one-stop shop for oil and gas exploration. Steve Walkinshaw and his crew handle it all: land, contracts, graphics, geology, geophysics, and well site work. I have joint-ventured with Vision since its inception on large exploration projects involving 3D seismic, and have found their work to be exceptional: comprehensive, dependable, up-to-date, timely, and thorough. And most important, Steve Walkinshaw is a class act. His knowledge, reliability, and integrity are unmatched. Vision Exploration LLC does it all, and does it right." - S. Pfiester, WAAPF Limited "I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Vision Exploration to anyone seeking professional state-of-the-art advice on any facet of oil and gas exploration. I have known Steve Walkinshaw longer than anyone in the oil and gas exploration profession, bar none. I was Division Geologist for Forest Oil Corporation in 1980 when I hired Steve as an intern to work in our Jackson, Mississippi office. Steve was just beginning his senior year at a local private college pursuing his degree in geology. It didn’t take long to realize that Steve was an above-average student and that petroleum geology was his passion. After a casual conversation regarding oil and gas exploration, I could see the desire to do more in geology and maybe less in the day-to-day, mundane office routine. I for the most part threw Steve in the ditch with an exploitation project in a field in which Forest maintained some leases. Given little more than a few picks on a log and a general description of what was needed, he disappeared for a few days. Then Steve walked into my office one afternoon with a huge three-ring binder and a gleam in his eye. I was presented reservoir maps, structure maps, cross-sections, type logs, completion data, production data, land maps, scout cards, core analyses, well performance data, a professional presentation, and a recommendation for three wells. We actually used his work to make our decisions, and it was a home run. His first geologic project completed while a senior in college... and it was absolutely remarkable. Steve’s work ethic has not changed over these thirty years. As a matter of fact, it has become more technically driven. Steve is competent in 2D and 3D seismic interpretation, supervision of data acquisition, and processing. He uses state of the art software to guide his interpretations and you can rest assured you will never get an "off the shelf" or "canned" result.
