Dr. Mtaki Thomas Maagi is a lecturer in the Department of Materials and Energy Science and Engineering of the School of Materials, Energy, Water and Environmental Sciences. He received his education and training at Ardhi University (BSc-Geoinformatics) and China University of Geosciences-Wuhan (MSc and PhD- Oil and Natural Gas Engineering), and after completing his PhD, he worked for two years at Dar es Salaam Maritime Institute (DMI). His fundamental knowledge in petroleum industry has enabled him to work in a range of areas, including marine spill contingency plans, oil and gas laws and regulations, and health,safety and environment (HSE) in oil and gas industry. He has worked on curriculum design in the oil and gas industry several times.He is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers. His areas of research includeoil-well cementing, drilling fluid technology, nanomaterials and natural gas engineering.
His research and publications on the application of nanomaterials in oil and gas well cementing have been recognized with several awards including the 2019 Outstanding Paper Award in International Field Exploration and Development Conference (IFDC) held in Xian, China, “Single and combined effects of nano-SiO2, nano-TiO2 and nano-Fe2O3 addition on the fluid loss of oil-well cement slurry at high temperature”.
Dr. Maagi has several scientific papers published in peer-reviewed journals with multiple citations. He serves as a peer reviewer for several scientific journals. He is now collaborating on sustainable energy and cleantech projects, including clean coal technology.
