Biography
Dr. Ioannis (John) Chatzis, received his PhD from University of Waterloo. He is currently retired from his duties as a Professor.
Research Interest
Characterization of pore structure and modelling of capillary and transport phenomena in porous media using network models of pore structure. Flow visualizations in porous media and 3D computer reconstruction of pore structure of reservoir samples using stochastic modelling of pore space and petrographic image analysis. EOR technologies associated with oil recovery by gravity drainage; heavy oil recovery using the Vapour Extraction (VAPEX) process and Solvent-Aided Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SA-SAGD) with utilization of horizontal well technologies.
