   Martin M. Cassidy
   
   Martin M. Cassidy is a petroleum geologist and president of both Casmar Consulting and the Texas National Oil Repository. He is also a Ph.D. candidate in geology at the University of Houston. He is currently doing these tasks after 32 years with Amoco in oil and gas exploration.
   
   Martin received his B.A. and graduated cum laude from Harvard in 1955. He worked for a year in Houston and Corpus Christi with Standard of Texas before spending three years in the Air Force. After working in the oil and gas business in Texas, he earned an M.S. in geology from the University of Oklahoma. He also worked for two years on a Ph.D. at Harvard before returning to Texas in 1962 to join Pan American (Amoco).
   
   In 1964 he became active in the HGS, first serving as chairman of the Research Committee. He worked with Martha Lou Brousard, Jim Ragsdale, Art Smith, and others in publishing the first HGS delta volume. In 1966-67 he was the treasurer of the HGS, and in 1968-69 he was second vice-president, now titled vice-president.
   
   In 1969 he entered Amoco International and left Houston to work in Libya, southeast Asia, and the UK. Upon returning to Houston in 1988, Martin became involved with the HGS International Explorationists group. His extensive experience helped the group identify important international plays to present at the monthly meetings.
   
   Martin continued to provide leadership when he became chairman of the HGS International Explorationists group in 1997. Membership in this group has continued to grow, and the popular dinner meetings provide high-caliber technical information to attendees. Martin continues to believe that oil and gas exploration is an exciting business, although it has become much more difficult now that oil is a commodity traded worldwide.
