Ge JinDr. Ge Jin is an accomplished geophysicist and educator with a distinguished record of scholarship. He currently serves as an Assistant Professor of Geophysics and Co-director of the Reservoir Characterization Project at the Colorado School of Mines Mines). With a focus on geomechanical applications, Dr. Jin also closely collaborates with the Advanced Geomechanics Fracture & Reservoir Application Consortium (AG-FRAC) at Texas A&M University in collaboration with Dr. Kan Wu. Dr. Jin has published more than 50 peer-reviewed papers in leading journals and has been granted 11 patents for his innovative research. His research interests lie in several areas, including Distributed Fiber-Optic Sensing (DFOS), machine learning, and seismic imaging and interpretation. Before his current academic job, he spent five years as a research geophysicist in the oil and gas industry, during which time he developed an in-depth understanding of the practical issues faced by the industry and filed numerous patent applications. His research in DFOS has led to several groundbreaking applications, which include reservoir distributed strain monitoring, DAS-based microseismic imaging, DFOS-based production logging, DFOS-based well integrity monitoring, borehole tube-wave analysis, and reservoir guided wave analysis. Dr. Jin obtained his Ph.D. in Geophysics from Columbia University in the City of New York, after completing his dual B.S. in Geophysics and Computer Science from Peking University. Read More Read Less
