Research Interests

My research interests center around the integration of machile learning techniques into the field of carbon geological storage. Drawing from my experience in CO2 injection modeling at Wintershall Dea, I aim to explore how machine learning techniques can enhance the efficiency accuracy and predictive capabilities of CCS processes for a safe underground carbon sequestration.
