Professor Lin Renzi

Lin Renzi, the present Chairman of ODTSU, is a professor and Doctoral Supervisor of China University of Petroleum (Beijing). He is one of the leading “experts who has special contribution” in the China oil industry, enjoying special allowance from the state council. Prof Lin successively held the posts of the Headmaster of Jianghan Petroleum College, the Headmaster of Xi’an Petroleum University, Vice Director of China Petroleum Education Association, Director of China Petroleum Association and the Director of Chinese Geological Education Association. Engaged in education, research and application work in Petroleum geochemistry for many years, at the present Prof Lin is fully committed to the development and application of reservoir geochemical techniques from oilfield exploration to development domain, with the objective of mastery of the various techniques.

From 1960 to 1970 (10 years), Prof Lin worked on petroleum geochemistry testing and comprehensive research in the institute of Daqing oilfield; From 1970 to 1979 (9 years), he worked on geophysical prospecting for petroleum and comprehensive research in Jianghan oilfield.

Since 1979, he has been lecturing at three Petroleum Universities – 1) Jianghan Petroleum College, 2) Xi’an Petroleum University and 3) China University of Petroleum (Beijing), and committed to realize integrated cooperation of exploration geochemistry and geochemical development, from production, education, research and application.

Prof Lin is one of the pioneers of terrestrial facies of petroleum theory, and one of the main founders of key subjects of Petroleum Geochemistry. Prof Lin is exceptional at closely combining  the actual production needs, central on the overall goal of improving the production of crude oil and increasing the ultimate recovery – he carried out research and composition adjustments of reservoir geochemistry, and has been ranked 2nd by CNPC’s scientific and technological progress panel for three times successively.

In order to distinguish the explorative actual contribution rate of different layer in a mixing layer of oilfield, he Adopted “Chromatographic fingerprint and analysis technology”, using different production horizon of Chromatographic fingerprint feature. This technique was effective in the application of oil source research in many oilfields in China, and was proven from the good results in the later production of Liaohe oilfield.

Prof Lin is also noted for importing and developing Microbial prospecting technology, and completed microbial prospecting tasks in more than 30 blocks in diversified landscape areas both onshore and offshore. Among the areas of application, the technology is used in determining the residual oil distribution in developed oilfields, which enabled achieving outstanding recovery by using microbial characterization techniques.

In view of the organic-inorganic reaction mechanism between oil, gas, water and rocks, based on the nature of the substance, Prof Lin was able to solve a salient problem from source. The problem is in the development of oilfield flooding, caused by water changes. This technique has been widely used in the oilfield of Liaohe and Bohai Changqing, to promote increasing and stable production, and reached prominent economic effect.
