Mark Batten

Mark’s career started with BP in 2008, on the Challenge programme, working at Wytch Farm as a wellsite drilling engineer. He moved to the Angola team, working as a development drilling engineer for PSVM and Greater Plutonio projects and is now working with the Angola exploration team from Sunbury. When Mark isn’t working, he spends time outdoors taking part in activities such as camping and canoeing. Mark has a five year old son, Leo with his wife Hannah. The prize money will be spent on a lovely meal with his wife and unfortunately, renewing his car insurance.
