Details
Dr. Hyung Tae Kwak is an accomplished Research Scientist with over two decades of experience in the oil and gas industry. Since March 2010, he has led the Advanced Petrophysics Group at Saudi Aramco EXPEC ARC, where he has been instrumental in the development of several advanced technical platforms and tools, including the Naturally Fractured Reservoirs Evaluation Platform (NAFT), Field Sample and Data Management System (ACME), History-Matching Tool (EARC HM), and a suite of advanced NMR technologies. From 2001 to 2010, Dr. Kwak was a key contributor at Baker Hughes Inc., where he developed critical technologies for wireline NMR logging data interpretation. As an NMR laboratory manager, he also invented an NQR lab instrument and a novel NMR probe for capillary condensation in unconventional rocks. Dr. Kwak's work has significantly advanced petrophysical research and application, particularly through his development of AI-driven technologies and non-invasive laboratory techniques, making him a leading figure in the field. As of today, he has over 200 publications, including peer-reviewed articles and patents.
