across a wide range of fields. My recent work has focused on maritime applications, renewable
energy, seismic inversion, ultrasound, and medicine. I have placed particular emphasis on data
assimilation, large-scale parameter estimation, and optimization, making significant contributions
to reservoir engineering. I have also extensive experience in managing research projects.
I finished my PhD (Dr. Ing.) degree in mathematics at NTNU in 1991. Since Oct. 1, 2018, I have been a research professor at NORCE. From 2004 to 2018 I was a chief scientist at Rogaland Research (2004-2005) and International Research Institute of Stavanger. I was a senior scientist at Rogaland Research from 1997 to 2004. In the period 1991-1997, I was an associate professor in mathematics at Stord/Haguesund College. I was an assistant director of research at The National IOR Centre of Norway 2013-2015 and an adjunct professor at the Department of Mathematics, University of Bergen 2009-2012.
