About
I am a graduate student and a dedicated researcher specializing in well completions, with a focus on wellbore cementing. My research aims to enhance cement composites to ensure effective zonal isolation, maintain well integrity, and prevent failures that could lead to safety and environmental risks. I am committed to developing solutions that improve the reliability and durability of wellbore cementing for sustainable and efficient well operations.

- Graduate school interests
Developing advanced cement composites for oil and gas and geothermal subsurface conditions, with a focus on well integrity, durability, and multifunctionality. My research explores the integration of recycled windmill blade fibers as reinforcing additives to enhance the mechanical performance and resilience of wellbore cement. Additionally, I investigate the effects of nano-additives such as graphene on cement properties, including thermal stability, self-sensing capabilities, and resistance to extreme geothermal conditions. My work involves comprehensive analysis of cement petrophysical properties, mechanical properties and electrical resistivity to optimize formulations for long-term wellbore stability and in-situ monitoring.
