Welcome

Dr. George Hirasaki

The goal of this consortium is to engaged in collaborative
research to advance the fundamental understanding of
porous media processes. Our core research areas include the
study of surfactant and foam Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
processes, wettability alteration with smart water, and
NMR & molecular simulation studies of unconventional formations.

As the director of this research consortium,
I thank you for your support of our research
and welcome you to potential opportunities for collaboration
and participation.

Dr. George Hirasaki, director

 

Lisa Biswal, Co-Director Walter Chapman, Co-Director
