About

Darcie holds a B.Sc. Hons. Biology from Queen’s University, an M.Sc. and Ph.D. both in Geology from The University of Calgary.  Her research interests focus on the effects and application of reactivating basement tectonics on the overlying sedimentary rock cover, and the deformation features (natural fractures, seismites, anomalous mineralization) resulting from that reactivation.

Her geological career has covered everything from conventional oil and gas to oil sands and Alberta Deep Basin tight gas, even gold and gravel. She has recently retired from the position of Chief Geologist at Husky Energy, where she worked in various positions from 2010-2021.  Prior to Husky she was at Shell (2006-2010) working on their Deep Basin tight gas play; this was preceded by positions with Canada-Cities Service and Robertson Research. Darcie also has considerable teaching experience: she taught Geology at the undergraduate, graduate and Continuing Education levels, as well as in-house courses for Shell and Husky.

Darcie has volunteered extensively for both APEGA and CSPG including serving on APEGGA Council 2003-2006 and as co-chair of the CSPG Structure Division for about 10 years.  She is a past-Chair of the Burgess Shale Geoscience Foundation and a member of the CSPG and APEGA.
