HASSAN EL-HOUJEIRI

Manager at Aramco, focusing on global energy traceability and GHG life cycle assessment research. Pioneered Aramco’s climate strategy and life cycle practices. Architect of The Archie Initiative (www.archieinitiative.org) for enhanced transparency on worldwide energy carbon intensity. Headed Saudi’s ICAO team for jet fuel climate policy. Prior to Aramco, crafted U.S. oil carbon intensity policies. Stanford fellow, created the globally-used OPGEE model for carbon intensity. Former Shell expert in GHG assessment and carbon strategy. Ph.D. in Engineering Science from Oxford University and Postdoc in Energy Resources Engineering from Stanford University.
