 NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO MAKE UNCONVENTIONAL GAS DEVELOPMENT MORE RESILIENT

Thursday - June 28, 2018
Dr Brice Lecampion is currently a faculty and the head of the Geo-Energy Lab at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. Prior to joining EPFL, Dr Lecampion worked at Schlumberger in research and development from 2006 until May 2015 serving in a variety of roles ranging from project manager to principal scientist in both Europe and the United States. Dr Lecampion received his PhD in mechanics from Ecole Polytechnique, France in 2002 and worked as a research scientist in the hydraulic fracturing research group of CSIRO division of Petroleum Resources (Melbourne, Australia) from 2003 to 2006.

Dr Lecampion worked on problems related to the integrity of deep wells, large scale monitoring of reservoir deformation and more specifically on the stimulation of oil and gas wells by hydraulic fracturing. He was notably recently part of a company wide effort to significantly improve the efficiency of hydraulic fracturing in unconventional reservoirs, which resulted in a number of technological developments (new fluids, completion techniques, etc). His current research interests cover hydraulic fracture mechanics, mechanics of porous media and dense suspensions flow.
