Ahmed Shimi's research focuses on the application of Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) techniques in the oil and gas industry. His work investigates methods to successfully drill wells with narrow pressure windows, particularly in challenging geological formations. Shimi has explored the use of MPD in unconventional wells within the USA and Canada, with a specific publication addressing ultra-narrow pressure windows. He also examined MPD operations during the COVID-19 pandemic, detailing the use of Constant Bottom Hole Pressure (CBHP) MPD with a Managed Pressure Drilling Contingency (PMCD) for drilling in fractured shale formations. Another area of his research involves understanding the barrier philosophy during MPD operations to ensure safety and efficiency. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3, with 5 total publications and 18 citations. Shimi has collaborated with Martyn Parker, Sagar Nauduri, and Gildas Guefack, all from the University of Arkansas – Fort Smith.
