Early life and career

edit

Suleimanov was born in Baku on June 22, 1959. He graduated from the Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University. He received his PhD in 1987, his DSc in 1997, and his professorship in 2011. In 2014, he was chosen corresponding member of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS) on the specialization of "Development of oil and gas fields," and in 2019, he was elected foreign member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences. He attends the scientific school of academician Azad Mirzajanzade.

At 1981–1985, B. Suleimanov worked as an operator and engineer on oil and gas production in the Oil and Gas Production Unit named after N. Narimanov. He worked as an assistant at the Azerbaijan Oil and Chemical Institute's "Development and exploitation of oil fields" faculty from 1985 to 1988, and as a senior, lead, and head scientist at the ANAS Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics' "Nonlinear mechanics of oil and gas" department from 1988 to 2000. Since 2000, he has worked at the SOCAR «OilGasScientificResearchProject» Institute as director and deputy director. Since 2009 he has been working as deputy director for oil and gas production at the same Institute.

The construction of scientific and experimental basis for the use of heterogeneous systems in the development of oil fields, as well as the development of novel methodologies, technologies, and chemical compositions for oil recovery, is the major focus of B. Suleimanov's research activities.

B. Suleimanov has written 310 scientific publications, including 118 patents, two monographs, and four textbooks.

B. Suleimanov has mentored 24 PhD students and 6 DSc students.

Scientific activity

edit
  • In the development of oil fields, based on the physical and mathematical modeling of the filtration of heterogeneous systems in non-homogeneous porous media, novel technologies for increasing the oil recovery, bottom-hole stimulation and water shut off have been developed and successfully applied;
  • The existence of the S-shaped filtration law during the flow of non-Newtonian fluids in non-homogeneous layers is determined, experimentally and theoretically justified;
  • As a result of a comprehensive study of the stationary and non-stationary filtration of gaseous Newtonian, non-Newtonian fluids and gas under pre-critical phase conditions, the theory of flow of the studied systems based on the slip effect in the porous medium was developed;
  • As a result of the statistical modeling of the life cicle of oil fields, the methodology of dividing the development process into stages, determining the maximum production and recoverable resources was developed;
  • Based on the use of fractal, multifractal dimensions and Fisher-Shannon indicators, new methods of oil field development analysis were developed and applied;
  • Methods of selecting candidate wells for the application of various geological-technical measures have been developed based on mathematical modeling;
  • As a result of modeling various technological processes in oil production wells, new types of well equipment - submersible pumps, workover equipment, sand screens, etc. have been developed and successfully applied;
  • Various oil industry chemicals, such as demulsifiers, depressants, surfactants, polymers compositions were created and effectively employed.
