A. Rashid Hasan is a professor of petroleum engineering at Texas A&M University (TAMU). Before joining TAMU, Hasan headed the Chemical Engineering Departments at the University of Minnesota, Duluth (UMD) and the University of North Dakota (UND), Grand Forks, and directed UND s doctoral program in Energy Engineering. He has also worked with NASA Glenn on various aspects of multiphase flow and thermohydraulic transients. Hasan is an expert in the areas of production engineering, focusing on modeling complex transport processes in various elements of petroleum production systems. He is one of the pioneers in modeling steady and transient transport of heat and momentum in wellbores. Hasan holds a PhD degree (1979) from University of Waterloo, Canada. C.Shah Kabir is the proprietor of CS Kabir Consulting in Houston. With more than 40 years of experience in the oil and gas industry with Dome, Arco, Schlumberger, Chevron, and Hess, he has expertise in pressure- and rate-transient analysis, wellbore fluid- and heat-flow modeling, reservoir engineering, and testing and performance forecasting in unconventional reservoirs. His experience includes knowledge of major oil provinces, including those in North America, North Sea, Middle East, and the Far East. He holds a master s degree (1976) in chemical engineering from University of Calgary, Canada.
