Charles specializes in the creation of mathematical models and simulation tools to solve and optimize industrial challenges. In his 14 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, much of it spent at Schlumberger, he has developed the state-of-the-art of technologies in matrix acidizing and reservoir stimulation, including his most recent role as a key developer of Kinetix†.

His competencies spread over a large range of disciplines and domains, from software development through high performance computing to machine learning, and from fluid mechanics through geomechanics, to acid stimulation and hydraulic fracturing. This versatility is illustrated by his invention of 6 patents (3 granted, 3 pending), as well as his authoring of 22 technical publications.

He boasts 1,291 citations on Google Scholar and has earned professional awards and accolades. Charles holds an MSc in Fluid Mechanics and a PhD in Petroleum Engineering from Institut Français du Pétrole (IFP).
