FHS ========= AAPG awardees to be honored in Houston Shelton Named Powers Medalist Professor, researcher and visionary geologist John W. Shelton has been awarded the 2011 recipient of AAPG’s highest honor, the Sidney Powers Medal. Joining Shelton at the top of this year’s awardees list is Daniel L. Smith, exploration vice president for Sandalwood Oil and Gas and independent geologist in Houston, who will receive the Michel T. Halbouty Outstanding Leadership Award. Shelton and Smith are among the 42 award winners who have been announced by AAPG and who will be recognized at the opening session of the 2011 AAPG Annual Convention and Exhibition April 10-13 in Houston. AAPG awards, approved by the Executive Committee, are presented annually to recognize individuals for service to the profession, the science, the Association and the public. Among Shelton’s achievements over his career is his foresight in the early 1990s to plan and implement AAPG Datapages, the Association’s digital library and publishing program. His leadership continued the growth in the digital library, and an award is in his name that recognizes the best contribution to the Search and Discovery website over the year. Shelton was an early developer of the concepts and application of sedimentary petrology and depositional environments to petroleum exploration, and at Shell Research was among the pioneers in applying depositional environments to prospect definition. He had a 20-year career as a professor at Oklahoma State University, mentoring many of his master’s students to distinguished careers. Working with ERICO and later Masera, Shelton also was a pioneer in the concept of multi-client studies and took lead roles as both director and contributor on major projects in the North Sea, North Africa, the Mediterranean, Africa and China. Smith is the fifth recipient of the Halbouty Outstanding Leadership Award, given in recognition of outstanding and exceptional leadership in the petroleum geosciences. Interviews with both Shelton and Smith will be published in a future EXPLORER, and biographies and citations of all award winners will be included in a future BULLETIN.
