Mr. Cameron's work as a Petroleum Engineer encompassed three continents and four decades. Commencing in the Middle East in the 1930s, the trail led to the Caribbean, North America and eventually the North Sea.
During World War II, Mr. Cameron was commissioned in the British Army with the Royal Engineers and was involved in the defense of Britain's shores preparing sea-based oil fires to thwart Hitler's proposed invasion.
During World War II, Mr. Cameron was commissioned in the British Army with the Royal Engineers and was involved in the defense of Britain's shores preparing sea-based oil fires to thwart Hitler's proposed invasion.
After the war, it was back to the Middle East, a two-year spell in Trinidad, Canada's Arctic and the North Sea in the unending quest for 'black gold.'
Mr. Cameron's story is truly fascinating, giving personal inside glimpses into this modern period of history as well as countless historical anecdotes recounting man's earliest quest for this vital substance and the part it played in world-wide exploration.
