Dr Ferdinando gained his BSc (Hons) & PhD from the University of Western Australia. He initially worked for the Geological Survey of WA before moving to explore the northern Perth Basin with Arc Energy. After a successful period with Arc, he then took up an offer he could not refuse, joining Murphy Oil’s newly opened Australia office and worked across the Browse, Bonaparte and Perth Basins, as well as New Zealand’s offshore basins, the Great Australian Bight and the Vulcan Sub-basin. After Murphy Oil circled the wagons, closed the Perth office and headed back to Houston, he started his own consultancy, Basin Science, which specialised in regional play mapping across Australian Basins. In late 2021 Darren undertook a contract for Geoscience Australia as a Resource Assessment Specialist focusing on play mapping of conventional and unconventional resources over eastern Australian basins. He joined Talon Energy in mid-2022 and has planned and executed Talon’s recent work within the Perth Basin.

He is a Fellow of the Petroluem Exploration Society of Australia and a member of AAPG.
