Fitch

 

Peter Fitch is with the Dept. of Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College in London. His main research interests focus on the characterization of carbonate rock through their sedimentological and petrophysical properties, and how these influence fluid flow in terms in hydrocarbon reservoirs. His current research uses outcrop analogue models to investigate which features (or heterogeneities) are important controls on fluid flow through carbonate rocks at different scales; looking to identify what geological and physical property heterogeneities should be captured in subsurface reservoir models.
