Graduate student Oluwakemi Olofinnika was recently awarded the Texas A&M Energy Institute scholarship.
The Energy Institute scholarship is a prestigious program that recognizes outstanding achievements and research in the fields of energy digitization, resilient energy, geothermal energy, carbon capture, utilization and storage, and energy transition.
Olofinnika’s research focuses on designing CO2-enhanced oil recovery and carbon sequestration strategies to improve low-carbon and sustainable energy delivery. Dr. Rita Esuru Okoroafor is Olofinnika’s advisor and research supervisor.
“I am humbled and honored to have been chosen as one of five recipients of this scholarship,” Olofinnika said. “I believe that this achievement aligns well with the petroleum engineering department’s values and goals and sheds a positive light on the department’s commitment to low carbon and sustainable energy development.”
