Chris Boeije

Chris Boeije is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Applied Geophysics & Petrophysics section at Delft University of Technology's Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences. His research focuses on petroleum engineering with specialization in foam injection processes for carbonate reservoirs and environmental engineering applications for groundwater remediation.

Dr. Boeije's primary research interests include Petroleum Engineering, Geothermal Energy, and Environmental Engineering, with particular expertise in fluid mechanics within porous media. His work bridges theoretical understanding with practical applications for energy extraction and environmental protection.

His publication record demonstrates consistent contributions to understanding foam behavior in reservoir conditions, with recent work examining degassing kinetics of geothermal waters through the REFLECT consortium. The publications show a progression from fundamental foam mechanics to practical applications in both oil recovery and geothermal energy production.

Dr. Boeije is actively involved in the REFLECT consortium, a European collaborative effort focused on redefining geothermal fluid properties at extreme conditions. This work aims to collect detailed data on fluid properties related to geothermal water production.

His laboratory work is conducted within the Geoscience & Engineering facilities at TU Delft, utilizing specialized equipment for porous media flow experiments and fluid property characterization.
