We have a fully funded PhD position available in MuPhi research group on accelerating deployment of CCS to tackle climate change by developing fast and efficient simulation techniques based on vertically integrated modelling for storing CO2 in depleted reservoirs. This position is good for someone with a numerical modeling background.
We are looking for a highly motivated person who is interested in applied geology, thermodynamics, and numerical methods. Experience with coding and simulator development (e.g., reservoir simulation) is a plus. This is an incredible opportunity to contribute to the critical challenge of decarbonization. The research will focus on developing innovative methods for turning depleted fields into valuable CO2 storage resources, directly supporting the energy transition and NetZero goals.
