Numerical Simulation of Coupling Compositional Two-Phase Flow and Micro-Bio Reactive Transport in Underground Hydrogen Storage
This work develops a numerical framework coupling compositional two-phase flow with microbial reactive transport to investigate hydrogen loss and fluid-composition changes caused by subsurface microbial activity during underground hydrogen storage.
I am a PhD candidate in Energy Resources and Petroleum Engineering at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). My doctoral research focuses on numerical modeling of coupled compositional multiphase flow and microbial reactive transport for underground hydrogen storage (UHS), with emphasis on thermodynamics, reservoir simulation, and computational efficiency.
Before my PhD, I worked for seven years at CNOOC Tianjin as a formation evaluation and logging engineer. This combination of field-scale formation evaluation experience and reservoir simulation research shapes my interest in integrated subsurface characterization, modeling, and decision support.
