Education

Maria Antonieta has attended two different universities to complete her education. During Maria's time at the University of Amsterdam, she received her Doctor in Mathematics and Natural sciences degree. Previously at the Central University of Venezuela, she earned a Geological Engineering degree as well as an MSc (Master of Science) in Sedimentary Geology degree. [3] Maria also has completed her education as a Technologist in the Food industry. [4]

Career

Maria Antonieta Lorente began her career as a lecturer in Historical Geology and Paleontology at the Central University of Venezuela. Maria excelled as a micropaleontologist adept in Palynology, developing a patent that used quantitative palynofacies for reservoir characterization and correlation. [1] Lorente started working as palynologists in Maraven SA. Later as a career specialist, she led a multidisciplinary team of sedimentologists, geochemists, petrophysics, and biostratigraphers. Her team supported the exploratory activities of the company. Eventually, Lorente became Head of Geological Laboratories as well as Leader of Stratigraphy; gaining the responsibility of leadership for teams of experts. Lorente also continued to manage these experts' team during this time overseeing specialized geological information. [1] She was then promoted to the role of "Planning and Strategy Manager" at PDVSA where she proposed the 2001 plan for the Exploration Business Unit's short, medium, and long-term objectives. [3] Maria Antonieta Lorente eventually retired from PDVSA with the aspirations of creating her own consulting service in the field of geology and environmental sciences. Years later her career path shifted shortly to the food industry where she had success with research and development, along with environmental efforts for a local company in Spain. [1] Lorente currently teaches online and mentors younger generations of Geology students at the Central University of Venezuela while also working as an International Consultant in Geology. [1] She is also currently a senior advisor to Ellington Geological Services in Houston Texas. [5]

Notable achievements

Maria Antonieta Lorente was awarded the AAPG Distinguished Service award in 1996. This award is "presented to members who have distinguished themselves in singular and beneficial long-term service to AAPG". [6]

Maria Antonieta Lorente was chosen as one of the nine convenors for the Paleogeography and Hydrocarbon Potential of the La Luna Formation and Related Cretaceous Anoxic Depositional Systems for the September 7–9 meeting in 2000. This meeting took place in Caracas, Venezuela. [7]

Publications

Maria Antioneta Lorente has published over 60 articles in geology, stratigraphy and petroleum geology.

Zulia State is one of the 23 states of Venezuela. The state capital is Maracaibo. As of the 2011 census, it has a population of 3,704,404, the largest population among Venezuela's states. It is also one of the few states in Venezuela in which voseo is widespread. The state is coterminous with the eponymous region of Zulia.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Maracaibo Basin</span> Foreland basin in Venezuela

The Maracaibo Basin, also known as Lake Maracaibo natural region, Lake Maracaibo depression or Lake Maracaibo Lowlands, is a foreland basin and one of the eight natural regions of Venezuela, found in the northwestern corner of Venezuela in South America. Covering over 36,657 square km, it is a hydrocarbon-rich region that has produced over 30 billion bbl of oil with an estimated 44 billion bbl yet to be recovered. The basin is characterized by a large shallow tidal estuary, Lake Maracaibo, located near its center. The Maracaibo basin has a complex tectonic history that dates back to the Jurassic period with multiple evolution stages. Despite its complexity, these major tectonic stages are well preserved within its stratigraphy. This makes The Maracaibo basin one of the most valuable basins for reconstructing South America's early tectonic history.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Neuquén Basin</span> Sedimentary basin covering most of Neuquén Province in Argentina

Neuquén Basin is a sedimentary basin covering most of Neuquén Province in Argentina. The basin originated in the Jurassic and developed through alternating continental and marine conditions well into the Tertiary. The basin bounds to the west with the Andean Volcanic Belt, to the southeast with the North Patagonian Massif and to the northeast with the San Rafael Block and to the east with the Sierra Pintada System. The basin covers an area of approximately 120,000 square kilometres (46,000 sq mi). One age of the SALMA classification, the Colloncuran, is defined in the basin, based on the Collón Curá Formation, named after the Collón Curá River, a tributary of the Limay River.

The Cerro Fortaleza Formation, in older literature described as Pari Aike Formation, is a Late Cretaceous geologic formation of Campanian to Maastrichtian age of the Austral Basin in southern Patagonia, Argentina.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Malargüe Group</span>

The Malargüe Group is a group of geologic formations of the Neuquén Basin of the Mendoza, Neuquén, Río Negro and La Pampa Provinces in northern Patagonia, Argentina. The formations of the Malargüe Group range in age between the middle Campanian to Deseadan, an Oligocene age of the SALMA classification, straddling the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary, about 79 million to 30 million years in age. The group overlies the older Neuquén Group, separated by an unconformity dated to 79 Ma. The rocks of the Malargüe Group comprise both marine and continental deposits which are over 400 m (1312 ft) thick in total.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Golfo San Jorge Basin</span>

The Golfo San Jorge Basin is a hydrocarbon-rich sedimentary basin located in eastern Patagonia, Argentina. The basin covers the entire San Jorge Gulf and an inland area west of it, having one half located in Santa Cruz Province and the other in Chubut Province. The northern boundary of the basin is the North Patagonian Massif while the Deseado Massif forms the southern boundary of the basin. The basin has largely developed under condition of extensional tectonics, including rifting.

Salta Basin or Salta Rift Basin is a sedimentary basin located in the Argentine Northwest. The basin started to accumulate sediments in the Early Cretaceous (Neocomian) and at present it has sedimentary deposits reaching thicknesses of 5,000 metres (16,000 ft). The basin contains seven sub-basins: Tres Cruces, Lomas de Olmedo, Metán, Alemanía, Salfity, El Rey, Sey and Brealito. The basin environment has variously been described as a "foreland rift" and an "intra-continental rift". The basin developed under conditions of extensional tectonics and rift-associated volcanism.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Bolivar Coastal Fields</span>

The Bolivar Coastal Fields (BCF), also known as the Bolivar Coastal Complex, is located on the eastern margin of Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela. Bolivar Coastal Field is the largest oil field in South America with its 6,000-7,000 wells and forest of related derricks, stretches thirty-five miles along the north-east coast of Lake Maracaibo. They form the largest oil field outside of the Middle East and contain mostly heavy oil with a gravity less than 22 degrees API. Also known as the Eastern Coast Fields, Bolivar Coastal Oil Field consists of Tía Juana, Lagunillas, Bachaquero, Ceuta, Motatán, Barua and Ambrosio. The Bolivar Coast field lies in the Maracaibo dry forests ecoregion, which has been severely damaged by farming and ranching as well as oil exploitation. The oil field still plays an important role in production from the nation with approximately 2.6 million barrels of oil a day. It is important to note that the oil and gas industry refers to the Bolivar Coastal Complex as a single oilfield, in spite of the fact that the oilfield consists of many sub-fields as stated above.

The geology of Venezuela includes ancient Precambrian igneous and metamorphic basement rocks, layered with sedimentary rocks from the Paleozoic and Mesozoic and thick geologically recent Cenozoic sediments with extensive oil and gas.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Agrio Formation</span>

The Agrio Formation is an Early Cretaceous geologic formation that is up to 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) thick and is located in the southern Mendoza Province and northern-central Neuquén Province, in the Neuquén Basin of northwestern Patagonia, Argentina. This formation is the youngest one of the Mendoza Group, overlying the Mulichinco and Bajada Colorada Formations and overlain by the Huitrín and La Amarga Formations. It is dated to the Late Valanginian to Early Hauterivian, Late Valanginian to Early Barremian, or Hauterivian to earliest Aptian.
