Sandra Vega Email and Phone Number

Sandra Vega is a rock physicist experienced in acoustic lab measurements, seismic-logs-lab data correlation, carbonate fluid substitution, and digital rock physics. Physicist of profession, she started her career in Geosciences (1990) working as Field Assistant Seismologist in acquisition of 2D seismic for Sismoven-Halliburton, Venezuela. Then, she worked as petrophysicist in the research and development institute of Intevep-PDVSA between 1991 and 1998. After that, Dr. Vega went back to school and got her master and PhD in Geophysics at Stanford University. In 2004, she joined the CSL group in University of Miami, working as a postdoctoral fellow, where she studied the correlation between rock physics and GPR measurements. In 2005, she joined the Petroleum Geosciences Department at The Petroleum Institute in Abu Dhabi, UAE, where she worked as Assistant Professor. She has taught courses of Petrophysics, Data Analysis and Geostatistics, Reflection Seismology, Geosciences-Computer Project, Introduction to Geosciences, and Reservoir Geophysics. Dr. Vega has also supervised several senior projects and undergraduate and graduate research in the areas of rock physics, petrophysics, reservoir characterization, and geomechanics. She works now in The Center of Geosciences at UNAM-Juriquilla in Mexico, as a Associate Research Professor and is responsible of the LUMIR lab. Specialties: Rock Physics
