The professional career of Professor Warren spans more than 35 years, of which a total of 25 years are in academia. Dr. Warren is currently a faculty member in the Graduate School in Petroleum Geoscience in the Geology Department, Faculty of Science at Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, where he teaches courses in Wireline Analysis, Carbonate and Evaporite Reservoir Systems, Production Geology and Reservoir Characterization. He is also the Technical Services director of SaltWork Consultancy, centred in Adelaide, Australia. Throughout his career he has worked as a academic and consultant dealing with diagenesis-related problems in reservoir, wireline and resource studies across various exploration and development programs conducted by various companies, that include; ADNOC, ADCO, Asia-Pacific Potash, BHP Billiton, BHP Petroleum, Chevron, Homestake Gold, MMG, Pasminco, Statoil, Schlumberger, Shell, Texaco, the World Bank and others.

• Interpreting evaporite textures.- Depositional chemistry and hydrology.- Sabkhas, saline mudflats and pans.- Subaqueous salts: salinas and perennial lakes.- Ancient basins and stratigraphic evolution.- Flowing salt: Halokinesis.- Pointers to vanished evaporites: Karst, breccia, nodules and cement.- Hypersaline fluid evolution during burial and uplift.- Halotolerant life in feast or famine (a source of hydrocarbons and a fixer of metals).- Hydrocarbons and evaporites.- Potash resources: Occurrences and controls.- Non-Potash Salts: Borates, Na-sulphates, Na-carbonate, lithium salts, gypsum, halite and zeolites.- Solution mining and salt cavern usage.- Meta-evaporites.- Lower temperature metals in evaporitic frameworks.- Magma-evaporite-hydrothermal metal associations.
