USA, California: Geothermal Resources Council Southern California Section Meeting

Meeting of the SoCal Section of the Geothermal Resources Council

A celebration of Life for Brian Berard.

31 January at 3 pm at the American Legion in Brawley located at 509 G St, Brawley, CA 92227

Brian was a proud Cajun and always looking for a good excuse to have a crawfish boil. In his honor, there will be a crawfish and shrimp boil and an open microphone for everyone to share memories. 

Thank you for the kind support from Baker Hughes for providing the crawfish and shrimp, and to Geo Drilling Fluid, San Joaquin Bit, CGE Services Geo Resource Management and more to come. Any remaining funds will be given to Brian’s family.

Everyone is welcome. Please feel free to share this invite with Brian’s friends and colleagues.

The Man: 

Brian Berard spent three decades working in geothermal, beginning in Ridgecrest, CA,  during the drilling and development of the Coso geothermal project. He spent most of his career with California Energy, now CalEnergy, and retired as the Geothermal Resource Manager in June 2017.

He contributed much to the Coso and Salton Sea fields, and explored Nevada’s geothermal resources for a couple years.

Brian was originally from Louisiana and trained as a geologist and geophysicist. Prior to moving to California, he served in the Navy and worked in the oil and gas industry of Louisiana and Texas.

All are welcome at SoCal GRC Section meetings free of charge, thanks to our generous meeting sponsors. Please RSVP to mary@geothermalresourcegroup.com.
