He graduated from Aarhus University, Denmark, in 2002 with a master's degree (cand.scient.) in biology. In 2005 he earned a PhD from the Department of Microbiology, Aarhus University. In 2005, Dr. Skovhus was employed at Danish Technological Institute (DTI) in the Centre for Chemistry and Water Technology, where he was responsible for the consultancy activities for the oil and gas industry around the North Sea. He was heading DTI Microbiology Laboratory while he was developing several consultancy and business activities with the oil and gas industry. Later he founded DTI Oil and Gas in both Denmark and Norway, where he was team and business development leader for five years. Thereafter Dr. Skovhus worked as project manager at DNV GL (Det Norske Veritas) in the field of corrosion management in both Bergen and Esbjerg. He is currently chair of AMPP SC-22 on Biodeterioration (2020-2024) and ISMOS TSC, an organization he cofounded in 2006. Further he is an international scientific reviewer and the author of >200 technical and scientific papers and book chapters related to industrial microbiology, applied biotechnology, corrosion management, oilfield microbiology, water treatment and safety, reservoir souring, and biocorrosion. He is scientific/technical reviewer with over 30 international journals in the same fields. He is co-editor of several books including Applied Microbiology and Molecular Biology in Oilfield Systems (Springer, 2011); 3rd International Symposium on Applied Microbiology and Molecular Biology in Oil Systems (Elsevier, 2013); Applications of Molecular Microbiological Methods (Caister Academic Press, 2014); Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion in the Upstream Oil and Gas Industry (CRC Press, 2017), Microbiological Sensors for the Drinking Water Industry (IWA Publishing, 2018), Oilfield Microbiology (CRC Press, 2019) and Failure Analysis of Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (CRC Press, 2021). Petroleum Microbiology (CRC Press, 2024). Dr. Skovhus was honored with the prestigious NACE Technical Achievement Award in 2020 and the AMPP Fellow Honor Award 2024 for his outstanding research and outreach on the Management of Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) in the Energy Sector.
