This is one of the forum that is run under the NNPCL/SPDCJV-ARET ADAMS Professorial Chair in Petroleum Engineering, Department of Petroleum Engineering, University of Port Harcourt.
Purpose:
Research Incubation and Maturation Forum (RIMF) is established to cater for the research needs of the PhD and Masters students under my supervision and mentorship.
Commencement Date: Effective March 2023
Times of Meeting: Every second and last Tuesdays of every month.
Objectives of the RIM Forum are to:
- Give focus and direction to the different varying research topics of the Scholars
- Allow robust discussions on the various research interests by the contributions from other Scholars
- Help incubate and maturate research findings for possible patents filing and spin-offs.
