About me

Currently I'm Professor Doctor Habilitat in Petroleum-Gas University of Ploiesti. My professional activity started in October 1996 and resulted in publication of five technical books, seventy scientific papers (22 ISI Web of Science indexed), and preparing over forty five research contracts. Also as petroleum geologist I assessed opportunities for onshore and offshore farm-in/farm-out oil agreements in Romania, Croatia, Israel, Egypt, Algeria, Iraqi Kurdistan, and Pakistan. I conducted research in Petroleum Geology, Reservoir Engineering, Carbon Storage, Mineralogy and Petrology. My current research are related to Renewables Energies - Geothermal, CCS, and deciphering by XRD of the mineralogical composition of the rocks in the Romanian oil and gas fields. Since March 2022 I was appointed Editor-in-Chief of the Romanian Journal of Petroleum & Gas Technology (ISSN 2972–0370). Since July 2022 I'm Project Manager of EEA 2019/107379 Project financed by the EEA and Norway Grants by Norwegian Financial Mechanisms 2014-2021.
