Design and implementation of a laboratory methodology for simultaneous determination of surfactant and polymer retention in chemical enhanced oil recovery processes (EOR) • Design, planning, execution, and supervision of laboratory experiments: sandpack flooding, static adsorption • Analysis of results, writing of reports, and delivery of oral presentations • I did my thesis to achieve the MSc degree in Reservoir Geoscience and Engineering from IFP School

Design, planning, execution, and supervision of laboratory experiments to evaluate Enhanced Oil Recovery: Core flooding • Characterization and performance of polymers, surfactants, and ASP formulations • Fluid-fluid and rock-fluid behavior • Phase behavior • Fluid stability and aging analysis • Screening of surfactant-polymer formulations • Organization of laboratory work • Review of the state of the art in EOR • Training of technicians • Proposal of acquisition of chemicals, equipment, and materials

While I was a student, I developed gas separation membranes with potential use in natural gas sweetening, improved by the use of nanoparticles. I did my final year thesis to achieve the Chemical Engineering degree from the National University of Comahue.

While I was a student, I characterized chemically-modified alumina nanoparticles and used them to manufacture composite membranes for gas separation.

While I was a student, I worked as a teaching assistant in math courses in the College of Engineering.
