A Pioneer in Organic Geochemistry

"I'm sorry Dr. Peters, but that's not quite right." This year's Sidney Powers Memorial Award winner, Kenneth Peters, recalls that moment fondly. He was in class, making a point of which he was certain, when a student raised his hand to challenge it. "If I had to pick one aspect of my career that was most rewarding," said Peters, who has more than 38 years of experience with Chevron, ExxonMobil, USGS, Stanford University and Schlumberger, "it would have to be those perceptive and sometimes irreverent comments or questions posed by students or colleagues."
