Our Mission: Finding Opportunity in Challenges & Delivering Cost Effective Solutions
ABOUT GGRE DIRECTORS & ASSOCIATES
GGRE is all about the rocks! The letters GGRE represent GEOLOGY, GEOPHYSICS & RESERVOIR ENGINEERING. Any project the team at GGRE work on it all starts with understanding these disciplines and then integrating the range of uncertainty that the subsurface brings, to all other technical, commercial and environmental challenges. Working in an agile, collaborative and iterative manner, finding opportunities in challenges and delivering cost effective solutions is the result.
GGRE was first incorporated in Singapore in January 2011 as GGRE Asia Pte. Ltd. (201102710N) and then moved to Malaysia in May 2016, incorporating in Miri, Sarawak as Integrated GGRE Asia Sdn. Bhd. (1189341-M). It is a company which brings a strong technical, commercial and subsurface led focus to finding and derisking opportunities, whether it is a CCS, CCUS, EOR, EGR, New Venture, Exploration, Production Optimisation or Field Development/Redevelopment Project. The company is also PETRONAS & PETROS licensed and has approved SWEC codes for Integrated Studies such as FDP, FFR, block reviews, reserve assessments along with Static & Dynamic Reservoir Modeling services and Geological Analysis while drilling services.
The Directors & Associates bring an entrepreneurial spirit, a wealth of experience and a track record for delivering projects across South East Asia and Globally. We are also passionate about the environment and finding commercially viable solutions to reduce the carbon footprint of our industry.

Mr Jean is an innovative and self-motivated registered Canadian Professional Geophysicist with over 28 years of international experience in the oil and gas upstream business, software R&D, carbon capture studies, and energy investment economics. He has been involved in operated exploration, development and new venture activities and has been the creative force behind finding and delivering many opportunities. As a hands on project/subsurface leader and experienced seismic interpreter, he is capable of managing multi-disciplinary teams with strong communication, mentoring and technical skills, often bridging the subsurface disciplines to facility design, engineering, economics, environmental and investment leaders. Mr Jean has a proven track record in building effective teams and delivering projects which have led to significant discoveries, field developments and production optimisation value additions.
For the past 11 years Mr Jean has been working in Malaysia, as part of the leadership team to help establish four new companies to the Malaysian upstream oil & gas business, plus one service company an one software company. He has also led many studies across South East Asia on Carbon Capture opportunities and late life asset evaluations. This work has culminated in numerous new ventures, discoveries and redevelopments offshore Sarawak, both for oil and gas, in carbonates and in clastic reservoirs. Prior to this Mr Jean worked in India, Russia, the North Sea, West Africa and North America for several small cap and large cap companies as a Geophysicist to Chief Geoscientist and was part of the leadership team to deliver projects or strategies for New Ventures, Exploration and Developments. He holds a Bachelors of Science in Geophysical Engineering from the University of Saskatchewan in Canada and is an active volunteer to many local professional societies and conferences.
