Antonin Chapoy

Antonin Chapoy is a Professorial Fellow of the Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, United Kingdom. He started his career at Heriot-Watt University in 2004, joining the Centre for Gas Hydrate Research (now the Hdrates, Flow Assurance & Phase Equilibria Research Group-HFAPE). His research interests include experimental measurement and thermodynamic modelling of fluid phase equilibria, thermophysical properties, gas hydrates, wax, and flow assurance. With over 24 years of research experience, he has managed a wide range of projects, predominately sponsored by industry. He teaches courses at postgraduate level, as well as offering several short courses to the industry. He is the author or coauthor of over 150 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 2 book chapters, 3 patents and more than 200 technical reports and conference papers, primarily concerning gas hydrates, flow assurance, transport properties, thermophysical properties of fluids and water-hydrocarbon phase behaviour. He sits or has been involved in the editorial boards of many peer-reviewed scientific journals, including the Journal of Natural Gas Science & Engineering, and Molecules. Since 2014, he is also an Associate Fellow with the Centre of Thermodynamics of Processes of Mines ParisTech, France. He holds a DEA (MSc) in Chemical Engineering from Université d'Aix-Marseille (2001), an MSc in Energy Engineering from Institut Universitaire des Systémes Thermiques et Industriels (2001), and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from Paris School of Mines (2004).
