Professor Sergey Galkin has been working at Perm National Research Polytechnic University as a professor of the Department of Oil and Gas Technologies since 2008, and has been working as a dean of the Faculty of Mining and Petroleum since 2010.
The academic degree of Doctor of Geological and Mineralogical Sciences was obtained in 2007. In the period from 1999-2010, he worked in the research and production divisions of the oil company «LUKOIL». He headed the center for geological and hydrodynamic modeling of oil fields.
In the period from 2017-21, he was the head of scientific research of 6 projects in the interests of oil and gas sector enterprises and state programs of Russia. Since 2019, together with Professor Baljun Bai (Missouri University of Science and Technology), he has been the head of the international scientific project "Development of technology for reducing water inflow in oil wells using limited-swelling polymers". Since 2020, he has been the head of the state program for the project "Physical and mathematical modeling of propane hydraulic fracturing in rocks".
Summary
The special issue will consider fundamental and industrial scientific problems in the "Materials Science" direction for the oil and gas industry. The solution of urgent scientific problems related to the study of the geological structure and development of oil and gas reservoirs, well drilling, oil and gas equipment, oil and gas treatment system in the field, and the operation of oil pipelines is welcomed.
