Speaker Topic"Utilizing Drone Survey Technology to Support the Oil & Gas Industry"

Halff Associates will be presenting on the employment of drone technology to capture, process, analyze, and utilize survey data for the Oil and Gas industry related to Upstream and Midstream applications.  The use of this cutting-edge technology enables tremendous efficiencies to be realized by improving the time, cost, and safety of the project compared to traditional data collection methods.  The modular systems allow for a variety of capabilities for various applications, including Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR), Photogrammetry, 4K Video, High-Resolution Aerial Imagery, FLIR Camera, Sonar, and Terrestrial Scanning.  The deliverables are a drastic improvement as well, with 3-dimensional CADD models and 1/8” per pixel imagery resolution being produced with a significant cost savings.  We hope you can join us to learn more about how this equipment can be implemented to assist you.

Jared Canuteson graduated from Texas A&M University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering in 2002.  He began his career at North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) before joining Halff Associates in 2006.  Since that time he has managed and engineered the development of plans and specifications for various civil and oil and gas projects that included grading, paving, erosion control, storm drainage, water and sanitary sewer, water system valuation, wastewater lift stations, wastewater system rate study, storm water pump stations, storm water recycling, green building development, large build-to-suit commercial development, third-party construction inspection, natural gas drilling sites, natural gas frac pond sites, gas pipeline replacements, gas pipeline pig trap installments, Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) plans, and Risk Management Plan (RMP) updates for processing facilities.  In 2015, he moved to Halff TriTex to lead the pipeline design division.  Since that time he has overseen multiple large-diameter, high-pressure pipeline projects, small diameter municipal relocations, as well as replacements due to capital improvements, including highway infrastructure projects leading to replacement.

Vasileios “Vas” Kalogirou started his surveying career in his family’s privately owned surveying business in Greece in the early 90’s.  He received a 5-year Bachelor’s Degree in Land Surveying Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessalonica, Greece in 2001.  At the end of the same year he received his license as a Professional Land Surveyor in Greece and he then moved to the United Kingdom where he received his Master Degree in Geographical Information Systems in 2003.  Vas moved to Dallas in 2005 after the completion of his military service and started working for Halff Associates.  Vas received his RPLS license in Texas in 2010 and has since become licensed in Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisiana and Arkansas.  Through the years he has managed commercial improvement Surveys, right-of-way Surveys, FEMA Elevation Certificates, Oil & Gas, and topographic surveying projects in various parts of Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.  He is actively serving as the chair of the RPLS/SIT Study Group Committee for TSPS.  Vas is also an adjunct professor teaching the courses of Geographic Information Systems and Geodetic Surveying at North Lake College since 2015.  He is currently the Director of Surveying at Halff’s Richardson office, but most importantly, he is a devoted husband and proud father and grandfather who really enjoys surveying.
