In the oil and gas industry, billions of dollars of revenue are on the line with each decision that reservoir engineers make. But making those decisions is a highly intricate process, involving multiple reservoir simulators and massive amounts of data.

In a 2011 case study, Dr. Richard F. Strickland, president of The Strickland Group and an expert in the field of reservoir behavior analysis, shared how Tecplot RS serves as the common interface between all of his oil and gas reservoir modeling simulations.

And keeps him gainfully employed.

Read what he has to say about his changing industry and the challenges of his occupation here.
