BACKGROUND
Dr. ANAWE, Paul Apeye Lucky was born on the 12th of June 1948 at Ogbona in Etsako Central Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria.
He attended Notre Dame College Ozoro – Ughelli 1963 -1967 where he obtained his WASC (West African School Certificate) in 1967. He obtained his (HSC) Higher School Certificate at Government College Ughelli in 1969. From 1970 – 1972 he taught the sciences – Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology in two different secondary schools.
With the foreign scholarship from the USSR for Tertiary Institutions through the Bureau for External Aid for Education under Federal Ministry of Education, he proceeded to the USSR for further studies in September 1972. On successfully completing the one year Russian Language course at the USSR – Azerbaidjan Institute of Oil and Gas, Baku City (now Azerbaidjan State Oil and gas Academy) he was admitted into the same institution to study Chemical Engineering in 1974.
From the Chemical Technology Faculty of this Institution, he in 1979 obtained his M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering - specializing in Chemical Technology of Oil and Gas processing (i.e Petroleum Refining Engineering).
He later proceeded to the USSR-Azerbaidjan Academy of Sciences Research Institute of Chemical and Technology of Additives, where he obtained a P.hD in Lubrication Engineering – specializing in Additives for universal (all-seasons) lubricants, fuels and fluids in 1982.
On return to Nigeria in 1983, he served in the (NYSC) National Youth Service Corps for one year in elf marketing Nigeria Limited Lagos. As a result of his good performance and dedication he was employed as the National Lubrication Engineer by the same organization in 1984 after a brief course at the Tribological Research Complex, in Soleize – France.
He was made the National Co-ordianator of CECA – elf Petroleum Chemical Division Business in Nigeria after a brief course in Paris at the CECA – ATOCHEMICAL – elf Aquaitine Training Centre, Granput - Nagis Refinery, Asphalt plant at Soissone – Rein, and the Industral Chemical Production Complex in Feuchy Lex-Arras in France. He had detailed study of theories and practice of crude oil treatments using various industrial chemicals, oil spillage control, safety and environmental protection problems in the industry.
In 1991, he was reassigned and made the (LPG) Liquefied Petroleum Gas Manager after a brief course at the elf Antar International Gas SA, Paris.
In 1996 he was made the Production manager of Lubricants and allied products after various courses at the lubes Blending plants in Dakar - Senegal, Roun (France) and Antwerp Belgium automated plants.
He also attended numerous advance management courses in Nigeria and abroad. He became Chief Executive Officer of Petroleum Academy Limited, after he honourably resigned his appointment in 2001.
He later went into academics as a Senior Lecturer at the Chemical/Petroleum Engineering Department, College of Engineering, Igbinedion University, Okada – Benin City. He was appointed the Sub-Dean of the College, and later Head of Department, before he joined Covenant University, Ota in 2007 as Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemical/Petroleum Engineering.
He supervised bachelor degrees thesis in the Department of Chemical/Petroleum Engineering and taught the following courses: petroleum and gas refining processes including petrochemcals, Polymer science and Technology, Introduction to chemical engineering, Lubrication engineering fundamental, Transport phenomena, and Fluid Mechanics.
Dr ANAWE, Paul Apeye Lucky is a Nigerian and happily married with three children. He enjoys reading, research/training, meeting people

Award
He was awarded an authorship certificate (“Patent”) on new Additives for Lubes, by the USSR Academy of Science Committee for inventions and discoveries of industrial values (part of his PhD Thesis)

Publications
He published numerous Technical papers on Chemical Additives for universal lubricants in the USSR Academy of Science International Journals.
He wrote numerous Seminar/Project works on his M.Sc programme on Refining, Petrochemicals and Gas technologies.

He is a full member of –
