Guilherme Furlan Chinelatto is currently a researcher at the Geological Reservoir Modeling Laboratory (MGR – CEPETRO) located at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). His research focuses on carbonate rocks from the Brazilian pre-salt, with an emphasis on depositional environment interpretation, petrophysical characterization, and geological reservoir modeling. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Geology (2014), a Master's degree in Geosciences (2016), and a Ph.D. in Geosciences (2020) from the Institute of Geosciences at UNICAMP. During his academic training, he participated in projects related to the oil and gas sector, specifically focused on the geological and petrophysical study of carbonate rocks from the pre-salt (Santos and Campos Basins) as well as analogous deposits. Currently, he is engaged in various research fronts related to reservoir geology, primarily dealing with tomography and microtomography analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, and detailed rock descriptions to determine the main factors controlling porosity and permeability in a reservoir, as well as the generation of conceptual geological models. Additionally, he interprets data and results obtained from well log profiles (conventional and special), seismic data, and machine learning.
At EPIC, in addition to his role as a researcher on topics related to geological reservoir modeling, he also serves as the Technical Lead for the “Reservoir Characterization” line, assisting in team and project management.
