DeGolyer, Everette Lee (1886–1965) petroleum geophysicist, oil company executive; born in Greensburg, Kans. His use of the reflection seismograph in petroleum field explorations and his investigations into the relationship of salt dome formations to oil deposits revolutionized the burgeoning science of applied geophysical petroleum engineering. He served in field and executive capacities for oil companies in Mexico and the U.S.A. before founding his own consulting practice in Dallas, Texas (1936). He was chief technical adviser to President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the Teheran Conference (1943). How to thank TFD for its existence?
