Biography

I am a Master’s student at the University of Dijon, specializing in sedimentology and carbonate reservoirs, with a strong academic focus on carbonate systems. I have developed a solid theoretical and practical background through my undergraduate and first-year Master’s training, further reinforced by several field internships conducted in Burgundy. I am currently a visiting Master’s intern at KAUST, working on the Musayr Formation in the Midyan Basin, northwestern Saudi Arabia.

Research Interests

My research interests focus on facies evolution within the sedimentary record, with particular emphasis on the role of sea-level variations in facies deposition and the development of depositional models for carbonate systems. I further investigate the interaction between sea-level change and tectonic processes, and their influence on the spatial and temporal organization of facies at the reservoir scale.
