The 2025 awardees are Mohamed Adel Graby (University of Houston), Juan David Guzman Calle (Universidad de Granada), and Ghith Biheri (Missouri University of Science and Technology).
Recipients were selected based on their resumes, recommendation letters, and summary of technical contributions that may have resulted in a conference presentation and/or a journal publication of topics related to state-of-the-art technology and future needs of hydraulic fracturing.
Each recipient received a $750 stipend and an award certificate, presented during the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition on 4 February.
