Enhanced Oil Recovery and Rare Earth Elements: Petro Nakutnyy

Send us a textDo you ever wonder where or how technology is developed?  Commercial technology requires a great deal of research, prototyping, and testing to refine it to the point where it is both effective and economically viable.  Engineers from all disciplines are involved in research and development projects that help drive the development of new technologies.In this episode we sit down with Petro Nakutnyy to learn about his career as a research engineer.  Petro has a background in Petroleum Systems engineering and has been working at the Saskatchewan Research Council for the past seventeen years in a variety of engineering roles.  He is currently the Director of Commissioning in the Rare Earth Elements Division.  In this conversation he talks about his previous experience working on enhanced oil recovery projects, and he discusses his current work on rare earth elements.  Petro also offers some advice for young people who are thinking about studying engineering.
