Mission

At FlueCapture, we’re committed to making carbon capture accessible, efficient, and sustainable. Our goal is to help industries transition to a low-carbon future without disrupting their operations.

Vision

A future where carbon neutrality is the norm, and captured CO2 is repurposed for environmental and economic benefits.

FRANKLIN OKORO

Technical Director

Franklin holds a B.Eng (Chemical Engineering) from Federal University of Technology Owerri, Nigeria, MSc (Oil and Gas Engineering) from University of Aberdeen, UK, and MBA from University of East London.
He worked as a Project Engineer with Nigerian Indigenous Oil Service Company ‘Oil and Industrial Services (OIS) Limited’. Prior to joining OIS Limited, he was a Reservoir Engineer Intern with Chevron Nigeria.
Franklin’s PhD research at Heriot-Watt University was on the phase behaviour of CCUS fluid systems. The work programme was an integrated experimental and modelling study focusing on Vapour liquid equilibria. Fundamental to the project was the generation of high‐quality experimental measurements to tune and validate phase and flow behaviour models. The PhD culminated into the production of new experimental datasets and the development of original models.

OWUNA Friday Junior

Commercial Director

OWUNA Friday Junior holds a Master of Science Degree in Petroleum Chemistry and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry from Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto. Also, he has a Master in Business Administration (MBA) with over 12 years of experience in the financial service sector.
Prior to joining Heriot-Watt as a PhD student, he was a lecturer in the University of Maiduguri, Nigeria. His PhD studies focused on Thermophysical Properties of Hydrogen-Natural Gas Blends.

Mohammad Hassan Mahmoodi

Technical Consultant

Mohammad Hassan Mahmoodi holds a B.Sc. degree in Petroleum Engineering from Petroleum University of Technology (P.U.T), Ahvaz, Iran (2013) and an M.Sc. degree in Petroleum Engineering from Tarbiat Modares University (T.M.U), Tehran, Iran (2021). He also has five years of experience in the upstream oil and gas industry (two years as a Drilling Supervisor and three years as a Process Engineer) at the National Iranian South Oil company (NISOC). As a PhD student at Heriot-Watt University, his research focused on studying the impacts of impurities on the thermophysical (equilibrium and transport) properties of the CCUS fluids by using the Molecular Dynamics simulation technique.
The aim of his PhD research was to generate more thermodynamic data at conditions that are tough, dangerous, or expensive to be measured in a laboratory.
The outcome of his PhD research is being used in developing accurate and robust models for predicting thermodynamic behaviour of the CCUS fluids.
