term collaborative partnership with KAUST,” AlAshgar said. “I am confident that in the near future our collaboration will be more mature, and many research programs will be kicked off in the areas of computational modeling, geophysics, nanotechnology application in the oil and gas industry and pore scale physics. We envision that more KAUST graduate students will join us in EXPEC ARC,” said Abdulaziz O. Al-Kaabi, an EXPEC ARC chief technologist and team member. EXPEC ARC formalized its partnership with KAUST over a year ago by sponsoring its students to intern with technology teams on various upstream research projects. This recent workshop sets the stage to strengthen this partnership and increase joint programs.
