Denis Orlov

Biography

Denis has more than 10 years’ experience in fundamental and applied research in the field of hydrodynamics and continuum mechanics. He started his scientific work at the Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU) as a student of the Chair of Molecular Physics at the Faculty of Physics in 2004. Denis graduated from the MSU with a Master’s degree in 2007 and obtained his PhD degree in Chemical Physics in 2010. Since 2010 he has worked at Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC as a research scientist, head of sector and head of laboratory, where he performed and managed core and fluid analysis (Routine, SCAL, EOR) for reservoir estimation and engineering, experimental, numerical and analytical investigations of multiphase filtration in ordinary and complex porous media. His scientific interest focused on research of mass transfer features in reservoir rocks of complex structure and in non-reservoir rocks. Denis led or took part at least in 10 R&D projects (including state grants). He is the author of over 55 publications including 16 papers in top international and Russian peer-reviewed journals.
