Profile

Biography

I am a PostDoc in the Reservoir Engineering section.
My original background is in Physics, and my PhD was in the field of Combustion Physics (experimental turbulent gas explosions in methane-air mixtures).
However, about 15 years ago I switched research fields, for a project studying the rheology of foam. Having discovered that working with bubbles and foams is extremely interesting (and fun), I’ve been working on projects looking at different aspects of foams ever since.

Expertise

  • Experimental study of 2D foam flows, considering the rheological behaviour of foams flowing through channels, constrictions, or model porous media. 
  • Small scale core-floods 
  • High temperature steam foam core-floods 
  • Supercritical CO2 core-floods
  • Drag reducing agents for Geothermal applications
