Ikon Science is excited to spotlight our Senior GeoMechanicist, Dr. Rashad Gulmammadov, who will present his groundbreaking PhD dissertation at the International Meeting for Applied Geoscience & Energy (IMAGE) 2025 in Houston, Texas. Since joining Ikon Science in 2023, Rashad has been a vital contributor to our Wellbore Services team, driving innovation in subsurface analysis. We invite all delegate attendees to support Rashad as he shares his transformative research, conducted under the guidance of his University of Manchester supervisors, Stephen Covey-Crump and Mads Huuse, where he earned his PhD in 2017.
Presentation Details:
Title: Overpressure and Fluid Flow in Mud Volcano Systems: Insights From the Giza Mud Volcano, Offshore West Nile Delta
Session: Tuesday, August 26, 3:40 PM – 4:05 PM, Room 362A
Booth Presentation: Wednesday, August 27, 5:10 PM – 5:50 PM, Ikon Science Booth #1211 (End of day Reception)
Rashad’s research delves into the complex dynamics of the Giza Mud Volcano in the West Nile Delta, a critical case study for understanding geohazards in offshore environments. By integrating 3D seismic reflection data, petrophysical logs, and pore pressure modeling, his work reveals how structural elements like fault systems and submarine channels drive overpressure and fluid migration. These findings enhance methodologies for safer drilling and infrastructure stability, offering actionable insights for the energy industry.
At Ikon Science, we’re proud to support Rashad’s contributions to geoscience innovation. His presentation promises to spark meaningful discussions on fluid flow systems and their implications for global sedimentary basins. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with his research at IMAGE 2025! Visit us at Booth #1211 to connect with our team and explore how Ikon Science is shaping the future of energy exploration.
