Craig Smalley

Craig is a geologist and geochemist with many years' experience in the oil and gas industry and related subsurface research and development. His main interests are: - Using natural chemical and isotopic tracers to understand and quantify natural fluid flow processes (e.g., aquifer flow) and human-induced fluid movement (e.g., oil and gas production, water injection, CO2 injection). - Improving integration and business performance through practical application of Decision Analysis and Event-Based Risk Management tools. - Improving the practical management of uncertainties in geoscience and engineering workflows. - Effective methods for identifying and progressing opportunities for improved oil and gas recovery (IOR/EOR). See results of our EOR screening research for the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate here and their impact on Norwegian resources here. - Unconventional oil and gas production mechanisms and production enhancement. - Diagenesis and prediction of reservoir properties. As well performing research in these areas, Craig also consults and offers teaching and training. Craig is also Alan Tayler Visiting Lecturer in Industrial Mathematics at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford.
