Ashkan Jahanbani Ghahfarokhi
About
I am associate professor in reservoir engineering at Department of Geosciences (IGV), NTNU since January 2019. In 2022, I was selected as one of NTNU’s young talents in Outstanding Academic Fellows Programme 4.0 (2022-2026). My research group (including PhD, Postdoc, and master students) perform cutting edge research on numerical and data-driven subsurface reservoir modeling.
I have had the following managerial roles at NTNU:
- 2022: Project manager in NORHED II: Education and Research within Energy at two Mozambican universities
- 2021-2022: Head of the Reservoir Engineering and Petrophysics Group (now Well and Reservoir)
- 2020-2024: Leader of the CEORS Gemini Centre (strategic collaboration between NTNU and SINTEF on CO2 Enhanced Oil Recovery & Storage)
- 2019-2022: Study profile manager in Engineering & ICT study program committee (an advisory board for the study program manager)
- 2017-present: Chairperson, Young Professionals Chairperson, and Faculty advisor at Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) Trondheim section.
My background is reservoir engineering:
- 2015: PhD, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway
- 2009: MEng., University of Calgary (UofC), Canada
- 2008: MSc., Petroleum University of Technology (PUT), Iran
- 2006: BSc., Petroleum University of Technology (PUT), Iran
After PhD, I worked (2015-2017) at DNVA (Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, supported by Equinor) as recipient of a prestigious post-doctoral research scholarship on polymer gel simulation study. It is this academy that awards the Abel prize in mathematics.
I did another postdoc at PoreLab SFF (Norwegian Center of Excellence) on wettability alteration in low-salinity water flooding.
Research
I am specialized in subsurface reservoir modeling, enhanced recovery and fluid flow in porous media, and my current research includes:
- CO2 injection for enhanced recovery and subsurface storage
- Data-driven reservoir modeling
- Production optimization
- Field development
- Well test analysis (PTA/RTA)
- PVT, fluid model development
My research includes participation in the following groups at NTNU:
- Leader of the CEORS Gemini center
- Science team member of the Reservoir Management and Production Optimization group in BRU21 (Better Resource Utilization in the 21st century)
- Research associate at PoreLab SFF (Norwegian Center of Excellence), Microfluidics and field studies (RESEARCH THEME 6)
I have written more than 40 journal and conference papers (selected recent publications below). I have also presented research work in more than 20 national and international conferences since 2008. Some invited presentations include:
- Invited talk on CO2 EOR and Storage at Joining Forces seminar, April 2022, Stavanger
- Invited talk about Carbon Capture and Storage at NPF digital lunch meeting, February 2022
- Invited talk on digitalization at NFiP PhD seminar, November 2018, Stavanger
- Schlumberger 2016 EOR Workshop “EOR New Frontiers”, 3-5 October, Abingdon, Uk, Simulation Study of Application of a Water Diverting Gel in Enhanced Oil Recovery.
I am currently guest editing the Special Issue "Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Applications in the Oil and Gas Industry" for Energies Journal (ISSN 1996-1073).
