EAGE Local Chapter Czech Republic announces annual competition for students

Academic year 2022/2023

The Vlastislav Červený Student Prize is brought to EAGE by our Local Chapter Czech Republic, in collaboration with RWE Gas Storage CZ, Seismik, GImpuls and the Geophysical Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences. Starting from this year, the 11th edition, the prize is entitled to Prof V. Červený, a former honorary member of EAGE, who died at the age of 90 in 2022 and devoted a large part of his life work to teaching young generations of geoscientists.

The Prize is a recognition of excellence in two categories: Best Master’s and Best Bachelor’s thesis.

The competition is open to all students from universities in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Austria and Slovakia. In order to be eligible, thesis works must be written in English, Czech or Slovak language and defended in the period between 5 October 2022 and 4 October 2023.

The deadline for applying is 13 October 2023.

Siddharth Misra

Award-Spinning-coin-

Prof Dr Siddharth Misra’s research focuses on improving subsurface characterization and prospect evaluation for the exploration of hydrocarbons, minerals and water resources.

His major contribution is in the theory of electromagnetic responses of geological formations to various charge polarization phenomena. The theory has enabled him to introduce a multi-frequency electromagnetic log-inversion technique to remove dielectric effects for improved estimation of hydrocarbon pore volume.
