Hadi Haghgouei
About
I am a researcher in the Department of Geoscience at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway. I hold a PhD in Geomechanics, and my research focuses on developing analytical and numerical models, with particular interests in THM coupling, creep, fatigue, fracture, and computational plasticity.
Research
I am working as a researcher at NTNU in collaboration with SFI SWIPA. My current research focuses on wellbore plugging and abandonment (P&A), ensuring that wells are safely and permanently sealed after their operational life ends.
