The 2010-11 training programme for ONGC, to be run between December and February, includes new courses in production logging, project costing, and well testing, to be run by newly appointed JHMA associate trainers. These courses are available for presentation in other locations.

This follows completion of eight courses in ONGC’s Training Academy at Dehradun within the 2009-10 programme, which also included new JHMA training topics in geophysical techniques along with repeat versions of courses in drilling, completions and artificial lift.

Most of the Expert field Redetermination projects in which JHMA has been involved remain confidential. However, it is a matter of public record that John Martin was – with other technical specialists – individually appointed as an Expert to the Court of Appeal, The Netherlands, in a complex matter concerning the offshore Logger Field. Work started in late 2008 and the Experts’ Final Report was delivered to the Court some 15 months later.

John Martin has been asked to join the Programme Committee for the Society of Petroleum Engineers Europec meeting to be held in June 2010 as part of the EAEG Annual Conference in Barcelona. He will continue in the committee for the May 2011 Vienna meeting.

JHMA invites enquiries for its expanded programme of subsurface in-house training courses available January 2009 onwards. As well as the topics described on this website titles include those listed here.

For further information including details of the internationally recognised instructors, course contents and availability for these and a wide range of other petroleum engineering and geoscience topics please contact

JHMA trainers have recently returned from India, where for a second year they conducted a series of in-house courses for Oil and Natural Gas Commision of India (ONGC). Each year ONGC solicits a number of courses from international organisations for presentation in its Dehradun training centre. This year JHMA supplied five of these training modules – more than any other provider.

JHMA continues to offer economical but high quality training solutions for clients in Europe, Africa and Asia.

John Martin has accepted a Board position representing the Energy Institute in the joint venture company PGC Ltd which is responsible for the successful delivery of the 7th Petroleum Geology Conference.

The joint venture operates between partners Energy Institute, Geological Society and Petroleum Exploration Society of Great Britain to host the affectionately termed 'Barbican conferences'.

The Board is responsible overall for the delivery of a successful valued event with both conference Organising and Technical Committees reporting to it.

PGC VII takes place 30 March to 2 April 2009 at the QEII Conference Centre in London:

To mark our tenth anniversary (in addition to six years' consulting prior to incorporation!) JHMA is hosting an evening reception for clients and associates at the award-winning Dulwich Picture Gallery 'the most beautiful small art gallery in the world' on 27th September 2006.

If you would like to meet JHMA and discuss any of your projects or other ways in which JHMA could help your organisation please contact us for an invitation.

FY2005-6 gross revenue exceeded £907 K (up 11% from 2004-5). Although JHMA is a small company, consistent profitability since incorporation has allowed substantial shareholder funds to be established. This financial stability compares favourably to that of some of our peers and allows JHMA to consider projects of significant value.
