Multiphase Equilibria of Complex Reservoir Fluids

Huazhou Li is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, School of Mining and Petroleum Engineering at the University of Alberta. He is a registered Professional Engineer in Alberta, Canada. The Petroleum Engineering courses that he teaches include Well Completion and Stimulation, Thermal Methods in Heavy Oil Recovery, and Advanced Production Engineering. His research activities are centered on the development of improved equation-of-state-based models and algorithms for better simulating the phase behavior of complex reservoir fluids. He has co-authored more than 100 peer-reviewed journal papers and SPE conference papers. He currently serves as an associate editor for Geofluids. The awards that he receives lately include the Regional Distinguished Achievement Award for Petroleum Engineering Faculty from SPE in 2020, the Petro-Canada Young Innovator Award from the University of Alberta in 2018, and the Outstanding Technical Editor Award from SPE Journal in both 2016 and 2019. He is a member of SPE. Li holds a BSc degree in Petroleum Engineering and an MSc degree in Drilling Engineering from the China University of Petroleum (East China), and a PhD degree in Petroleum Systems Engineering from the University of Regina.
