Michael Harty is a Senior Data Scientist with nine years of experience applying data science and geoscience to optimize oil and gas development across basins, most recently at SM Energy and previously leading multidisciplinary efforts at Oxy in the DJ and Delaware Basins. Trained at Colorado School of Mines (MS) and experienced in stratigraphy, reservoir and production workflows, he combines field-derived geologic insight with Python-based data visualization and analysis to drive operational decisions. He has presented work on induced seismicity and wastewater injection at professional conferences, reflecting an ability to translate research into practical industry guidance. Comfortable working alongside engineers, petrophysicists, and landmen, he builds data-driven solutions that improve drilling and production outcomes in both conventional and unconventional assets. Beyond technical roles, Michael’s background curating core samples and automating GIS workflows shows a knack for turning messy, physical datasets into searchable, actionable intelligence. Based in Denver, he’s continuously learning new tools and applying them to longstanding subsurface challenges.
