Areas of research interests:
Keen interested in tectonics, sedimentation and the sedimentary processes that lead to the generation of
hydrocarbons (making emphasis over facies and sedimentary environments analyses). Basically, wish to work on
Tertiary exposures in India having special reference to Hydrocarbon bearing horizons in different regions of the
country including Tertiary rocks of Kutch (Onland and Offshore both), Tertiary Exposures of Cambay Basin,
Tertiary rocks of Assam and Siwalik System in the Northern most part of the country. Besides, I also have my
interest in unconventional petroleum systems including Underground Coal Gasification, Coal Bed Methane, Shale
Gas, Oil Shales, Gas Hydrate etc.
