DeGolyer and MacNaughton, a petroleum consulting company based in Dallas, Texas, is at the forefront of a new classification system for counting Caspian deposits. Founded in 1936 by Everette Lee DeGolyer and Lewis MacNaughton, the company has been providing reliable and independent studies and evaluations of reservoirs for over 80 years.
The new classification system was developed in response to the need for reliable and accurate data on existing oil wells and properties. DeGolyer and MacNaughton have been working to develop a consistent and accurate system of evaluation for oil properties, which is essential for obtaining long-term loans from banks. By utilizing the new classification system, the company is able to provide more accurate data on Caspian deposits, which is essential for the development of new technologies and techniques in the petroleum engineering field.
The new classification system is based on the work of Everette Lee DeGolyer, who is known as “the founder of applied geophysics in the petroleum industry” and “the father of American geophysics”. DeGolyer’s work has helped to advance the field of petroleum engineering and has contributed to the development of new technologies and techniques.

The 65,543-square-foot lease is one of the largest in the high-profile building, which is owned by investor KBS. The lease deal was one of the largest signed in the Dallas area in the second quarter, according to commercial property firm Transwestern.
