Patricio Luppi - Petroleum engineer with 20 years of experience, specialized in drilling operations is CEO and shareholder of Planalto Geoservicios. He has worked and managed drilling projects with both junior oil & gas companies and majors. From conventional onshore industrial drilling development projects in Argentina, to deepwater offshore explorations in West Africa, drilling state-of-the-art shale reservoirs in Vaca Muerta and mature depleted fields in the North Sea, he has become very experienced in leading multi-technical teams (geo specialists and business management) in a variety of geographic locations and in diverse cultural environments. In recent years, as drilling manager at Arcadium Lithium (now Rio Tinto), he has raised the standard in drilling engineering and practices in lithium exploration and development and, as such, has co-founded a small drilling and geoservices company in Argentina to provide high quality services to the growing local mining industry.
