I hold a Dr.ing degree in heterogeneous catalysis from Industriell Kjemi, NTH 1993. 

I have worked as a researcher with oil refining for 30 years, first 10 years at SINTEF and then 19 years at Statoil research centre. From this I have some knowledge about crude oil qualities and oil refining technologies.

Now I am a senior advisor at IKP and work as a SFI coordinator in the iCSI (industrial Catalytic Science and Innovation) centre, as well as gas coordinator at Department of Chemical Engineering
