John Casiano

Geologist

John Casiano is an exploration geologist with more than 15 years of experience evaluating and developing petroleum systems across major U.S. basins, including the Williston, Permian, Powder River, Gulf Coast, Illinois and Mid-Continent.

His experience spans exploration, unconventional resource plays, drilling operations, prospect evaluation, and the integration of geology, petrophysics and subsurface data to find what others overlooked. He spent 12 years with a small E&P in operational and exploration roles before expanding his work as an independent consultant.

John is particularly drawn to mature, underexplored and data-limited basins where creative geologic thinking pays off. He serves as President of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG), bringing a broad industry perspective and an extensive professional network to his exploration work.
