Mr. Sean Roger, born in 1969, grew up in Pasadena, California. He kickstarted his career as a civil servant with the California Conservation Corps in San Luis Obispo, CA. Subsequently, he relocated to Magalia, California, located in Butte County, where he became a hotshot firefighter, working with the California Department of Forestry. After years of service, he suffered a career-ending knee injury and moved to Texas in 1990. Sean currently operates Domestic Operating and D Operating which offers the best oil and gas investments in Dallas, Tx, focusing on areas like the Eagle Ford Shale.

Briefly working with an affiliate of the VA hospital throughout the state of Texas, he embarked on his career in the oil and gas and real estate industries in 1994. With 30 years of hands-on experience in the industry, he now serves as a self-taught geotechnical engineer and owner-operator of Domestic Drilling & Operating and D. Operating LLC, specializing in production optimization and reservoir engineering.

Oil and gas geotechnical engineering encompasses the evaluation, design, implementation, and operations of technical processes focused on the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas. Once oil and gas are discovered, geotechnical engineers become involved in the process of extracting these resources from reservoirs, often collaborating with specialists to better understand the underlying rock formation (3-D seismic) and determine the best drilling methods, including hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, and monitor daily operations. Oil and gas engineering assists energy companies in finding and extracting oil and gas resources more efficiently, safely, and sustainably. As such, they evaluate energy reservoirs to help predict their profitability and examine potential drilling sites to plan efficient and safe well completion methods needed to recover energy assets.

As an independent oil and gas company consultant and prospect evaluator, primarily focused in East Texas, Mr. Roger has assisted in the acquisition of producing and non-producing assets. The acquired assets include approximately 81,000 net acres primarily located in Burleson and Brazos counties, with current gross production of 9,200 Boe/d (80% oil) from 170 wells producing primarily from the Eagle Ford Shale formation. The leasehold position is approximately 80% held by production and 90% operated gross East Texas production, approximately 14,500 Boe/d (83% oil) from 260 wells in the Eagle Ford, Woodbine, Austin Chalk Formation, and Buda formations. Eventually, these assets were sold to Hawkwood in 2017. Hawkwood then controlled more than 180,000 net acres and over 1,000 commercial drilling locations in the Eagle Ford Shale and Woodbine formations from subsidiaries of Halcon Resources for $500 million, less customary purchase price adjustments. The transaction had an effective date of January 1, 2017, and demonstrated a significant return on investment for the involved parties.

Currently, Mr. Roger continues to serve as a geotechnical engineer and owner-operator of Domestic Operating and D. Operating LLC. He has worked with other companies, including majors like Anadarko, Conoco Phillips, Devon Energy, Pioneer, XTO, Halcon, Clayton Williams, and many small independents, which he prefers over large companies, as he continues to do so presently. His expertise extends to shale gas production and decline curve analysis, crucial for evaluating the long-term potential of assets in the Eagle Ford Shale and other formations.
