Enhanced Recovery Processes: Developments in Energy Transition (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781394304387)

Cenk Temizel is an energy professional with 20 years of experience. He worked at Saudi Aramco, Aera Energy LLC (a Shell-ExxonMobil Affiliate), Halliburton and Schlumberger in the Middle East, the US and the UK. Before joining the industry, he was a teaching/research assistant at the University of Southern California and Stanford University. He serves as a technical reviewer for petroleum engineering journals and a member of conference committees. He has published around 150 publications in reservoir management, production optimization, enhanced recovery processes, machine learning, intelligent fields, and holds several US patents. He is the recipient of the SPE Regional Reservoir Description and Dynamics Award. He holds a BS degree (Honors) from Middle East Technical University - Ankara (2003) and an MS degree (2005) from the University of Southern California (USC), Los Angeles, CA both in petroleum engineering.

Birol Dindoruk, PhD, is currently a Distinguished Professor at Petroleum Engineering Department in Texas A&M University. Previously he was the Chief Scientist of Reservoir Physics and the Principal Technical Expert of Reservoir Engineering in Shell and as well as a Professor at University of Houston. His technical contributions have been acknowledged with many awards during his career, including SPE Lester C. Uren Award (2014), Cedric K. Ferguson Medal (1994), SPE Honorary Member award in 2023. He was elected as a member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) for his significant theoretical and practical contributions to EOR & CO2 sequestration in 2017 and later on in 2025 elected to the National Academy of Inventors (NAI). Currently he is the Editor In Chief for all SPE Journals. Dindoruk is the only individual in the entire world serving as an editor-in-chief for the first three most cited oil, petroleum and natural gas journals on Google Scholar. Dr. Dindoruk is well-known for his extensive work on thermodynamics of phase behavior/EOS development, miscibility assessment and experimental work, interaction of phase behavior and flow in porous media, enhanced oil recovery and CO2 sequestration, and correlative methodologies. Dindoruk has 28 years of industrial experience, holds a BSc Degree from Technical University of Istanbul in Petroleum Engineering, MSc Degree from The University of Alabama in petroleum engineering and also a PhD from Stanford University in Petroleum Engineering and Mathematics, and an MBA from University of Houston.

Jyoti Phirani, PhD, is a research leader with over 19 years of international experience in computational and experimental research, with a focus on energy and environmental systems. She currently serves as Lead Engineer in Mathematics and Data Science at Baker Hughes, UK, where she drives innovation in product design and engineering. Previously, she held an academic position as Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India, where she led collaborative research initiatives with global partners in industry and academia, particularly in geological reservoir modeling. Her industry experience includes working as a Staff Reservoir Engineer at Occidental Oil and Gas Co., USA, where she gained hands-on expertise in oil and gas reservoir analysis. Dr. Phirani has authored more than 35 peer-reviewed publications in the fields of reservoir engineering and porous media flow. She has also contributed to the scientific community through editorial leadership, serving as Editor-in-Chief of Upstream Oil and Gas Technology, and holding editorial roles in other prominent geoenergy journals. She holds a B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India and a Ph.D. from University of Houston, USA, both in Chemical Engineering.
