Francisco Hervé Allamand is a Chilean geologist known for his contributions to the paleogeography and tectonics of Chile and Antarctica.

Together with I. Fuenzalida, E. Araya and A. Solano he named the Liquiñe-Ofqui Fault in 1979.[1]

In a 2012 contribution to the blog of El Mercurio he expressed concern for the sudden emergence of new geology degrees offered by both traditional and non-traditional private Chilean universities stating that granting new degrees involves complex and costly tasks.[2]
