He returned to the U.S. in 1916, and in 1918 joined Humble Oil & Refining Co. as the company''s first geologist. Prior to that time the company had treated the search for oil as largely a hit or miss operation without scientific exploration. But Pratt, joined by 10 more geologists during 1918-19, proved that geology was an important factor in finding oil.
