2021-2022: Implementation of multiphase compositional thermal flow solver with gravity, capillarity, diffusion, kinetic and equilibrium reactions, precipitation/dissolution (through OBL approach) in GEOSX framework.2019-2021: GPU based compositional simulation using OBL parametrization approach. Study of performance improvement strategies for GPU based.

Delft Area, Netherlands

After spending 11 years in the oil&gas industry, I moved on back to academia to learn more about reservoir modelling on the non-linear level. Inspired by the parametrization approach to aid flash calculations in compositional space (CSP), together with my supervisor Denis Voskov, we developed a novel linearization approach and found out that it improves.

Bel Air

Development and implementation of GPU-based Sequential Gaussian Simulation. The results were presented at the Fourth EAGE Workshop on High Performance Computing for Upstream (2019).

Houston, Texas

During this internship, I learned the principles of machine learning and convolutional neural networks (CNN) in particular. Working with Geology Technology Team, I development of a deep learning approach towards carbonate thin section classification according to Dunham textures. Using labelled high-resolution thin section images, CNN with Inception-v3.

Ufa, Russian Federation

I worked in a small young team of scientific software engineers and mathematicians. We performed a full cycle of development, deployment, and support of a in-house 3-phase black-oil reservoir simulator. I was focused on implementation of parallel versions of the simulator for shared and distributed memory systems, including high-performance implementation.

United States

I took the opportunity to participate in a collaboration project between Rosneft Oil Company and Stanford University. During 6 month visit, I learned the structure of General Purpose Reservoir Simulator (GPRS), developed by SUPRI-B group in Earth Sciences, and introduced OpenMP thread parallelism in its linear solver library.

Ufa, Russian Federation

I was introduced to the problems posed by the oil&gas industry in reservoir modelling.In the beginning, I worked on the development of graphical applications for pre- andpost-processing of simulation data (Delphi, Object Pascal). Then, I got an assignment related directly to reservoir simulation - I studied and implemented various algorithmic components of.
