Chengdong Yuan holds a PhD degree in Oil and Gas Field Development Engineering through a Combined Master’s-PhD program from Southwest Petroleum University, China (2016). He graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering from Southwest Petroleum University (2011). He worked in Department of Petroleum Engineering of Kazan Federal University as an associate professor (2019-2022), and works in Department of Physical Chemistry of Kazan Federal University as a senior researcher (2017-2022). His academic interests focus on efficient hydrocarbon recovery. Specific interests include thermal methods for enhanced oil recovery including steam injection, in-situ combustion (ISC), new technologies for in-situ heavy oil upgrading, catalytic in-situ oil upgrading, catalytic oxidation of crude oil, chemical flooding especially for interfacial phenomena (wettability of solids, interfacial tension, foams and emulsions) and profile control and water shutoff technologies, etc. He has been authorized 7 patents and is author and co-author of more than 180 scientific papers (H-index of 33), has been awarded Scientific scholarship in the field of research in pharmaceutics, chemistry and petrochemistry, oil production and oil and gas geology of the KFU Board of Trustees (2020). Stanford/Elsevier Top 2% Scientists List 2024 in Energy. He has participated and given presentations in international conferences about 21 times since 2015, including 10 times SPE conferences presenting technical presentations. He was Guest Editor of the international journal FUEL of the Special Issue “In-Situ Upgrading of Heavy and Extra-Heavy Crude Oils”.
