Bio
Maxim Kiselnikov
I know Ilnur for more than 10 years. His great personality and a desire to go an extra mile have always made our projects go smooth and successful. Would especially like to point out his risk management ability. It’s always a pleasure to be in the same team with this gentleman.
Jeff Southwick
I met Ilnur at an Enhanced Oil Recovery Meeting a few years ago, attended his presentation regarding the operation of a polymer flood in Arctic conditions, and had conversations with him during the meeting. I have also read Ilnur's publications regarding polymer flooding, and was impressed by the technical content. He is an accomplished petroleum engineer with an impressive mix of practical experience and theoretical understanding.
