Career
Doctor Datta-Gupta is well known for his contributions to the theory and practice of Streamline Simulation in petroleum reservoir characterization, management and calibration of high resolution geologic models. 3-Doctorate streamline simulation is considered to be one of the major developments in petroleum reservoir simulation and performance forecasting. Doctor Datta-Gupta is a co-author of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (Society of Petroleum Engineers) textbook Streamline Simulation: Theory and Practice.
He has been named an Society of Petroleum Engineers distinguished member, distinguished lecturer, distinguished author and outstanding technical editors
In 2012, Doctor Datta-Gupta was elected to the United States. National Academy of Engineering, “for developing the theory and practice of streamline simulation for fluid flow in heterogeneous reservoirs.” Election to the National Academy of Engineering is among the highest professional distinctions accorded to an engineer Datta-Gupta earned his master’s degree and Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Texas at Austin and his Bachelor of Surgery from the Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad (India), all in Petroleum Engineering.
