Price Mathieson recently joined Bench Tree as a Project Manager. Price began his oilfield career in 2005 after completing his Petroleum Engineering degree from the University of Texas. He later received an Executive MBA and a master's degree in finance from Tulane University. Price started working in the field for Leam Drilling Systems and served in various roles including R&M Manager, Director of MWD, VP Technology, and Chief Technology Officer, overseeing the operation and development of downhole MWD tools. When asked what he enjoy most about the MWD Industry, he said, "It’s both extremely fun and incredibly challenging. Nowhere else do you get to design these complex tools and then push them to the edge of what they are capable of surviving. There is a ton of effort that goes on behind the scenes and it is satisfying when you release a product that succeeds in these incredibly harsh conditions and helps customers push the boundaries." Welcome to the team Price!
