About
Siti Rohaida Mohd Shafian is a leading researcher in enhanced oil recovery (EOR), with a specialized focus on foam-assisted flooding and gas injection processes for complex reservoir systems. Her most cited work, "An Integrated Laboratory Workflow for the Design of a Foam Pilot in Malaysia" (2013), presents a groundbreaking methodology for designing enhanced water alternating gas (EWAG) processes tailored to Malaysian reservoirs. This study, conducted in collaboration with Rhodia and IFPEN, established a systematic laboratory framework that bridges fundamental foam science with field-scale pilot implementation, directly addressing the challenges of gas mobility control in heterogeneous carbonate formations. With 12 citations, this paper has become a foundational reference for EOR practitioners in Southeast Asia. Shafian's contributions are particularly notable for integrating surfactant screening, core-flood experiments, and reservoir simulation into a cohesive workflow, enabling more reliable predictions of foam performance under reservoir conditions. Her work at Petronas PRSB has advanced the commercial viability of chemical EOR methods, offering practical solutions for maximizing hydrocarbon recovery from maturing Malaysian oil fields.
