Dr. Moses Oluwaseun ADEOYE
Senior Lecturer
Department of Geology, Faculty of Physical Science
Area of Specialization: Petroleum Geology and Sedimentology
Biography
Adeoye Moses graduated from the University of Ilorin with a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc. Hons.) in Geology and a Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Petroleum Geology and Sedimentology in the years 2008 and 2013, respectively. He further proceeded to the Nigerian Institute of Safety Professionals (NISP), where he was certified as a safety advisor. Upon his university graduation, he joined the United Geophysical (Nig.) Ltd. as a quality control field seismologist, where a wealth of seismic experiences were acquired in 2D, 3D, and pseudo-4D. He bagged a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Applied Geology, with an option in Sedimentary and Petroleum Geology, in the year 2024. Most of his research has focused on the application of new technologies of petroleum geochemistry to the understanding of rift basins and implications for hydrocarbon exploration. Currently, he is working on the modeling of hydrocarbon generation, migration pathways, and timing of the Southern Benue Trough. He has had several technical papers presented and published. Adeoye is a corporate member of the Nigerian Mining and Geosciences Society (NMGS), Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists (NAPE), and American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG).
