FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Southlake, Texas, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) August 31, 2011 -- James D. Henry (Geologist)

Mr. Henry was born and raised the small North Texas town of Nocona in the northern Fort Worth Basin. He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B. S. degree in geology, and then went to work for Getty Oil Company in Midland exploring the Permian Basin of West Texas, the Michigan Basin, and the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle. In the 1970s, Henry spent two years in West Africa as a geological advisor to the Directorate of Hydrocarbons and the Bureau of Mines of the government of the Ivory Coast. Returning to Dallas he spent five years working for Mitchell Energy in the Fort Worth Basin and authored one of the earliest authoritative papers on the geology of the emerging Barnett Shale play in North Texas. He then spent nine years in Oklahoma City working first with Core Oil and Gas and later with Beard Oil Company exploring the Anadarko Basin, the Ardmore Basin, the Mid-Continent of Kansas, eastern Oklahoma, the Arkoma Basin, and waterflood prospects in the Fort Worth Basin. Returning yet again to Dallas in 1990, Mr. Henry founded Old Aulacogen, LP, and became an independent/consulting geologist and remains so today. During the interval of 1994 to 2006, Mr. Henry's participation in the oil and gas business was curtailed to some degree as he became the founder and principle partner in the Republic Of Texas Biker Rally, Inc., in Austin, a position from which he has retired in order to return to the oil and gas business. He is married to his first and only wife of six years and resides in Frisco, a suburb of far north Dallas.
