The Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Department at the United Arab Emirates University is seeking a highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Fellow to conduct advanced research on fines migration and its implications for hydrocarbon recovery and reservoir management. This position offers a unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects, collaborate with a multidisciplinary team, and contribute to scientific advancements in the field of petroleum engineering. Key Responsibilities Conduct experimental and theoretical studies on fines migration in porous media, including its impact on permeability, formation damage, and oil recovery. Develop models and simulations to predict fines behavior under various reservoir conditions. Design and execute laboratory experiments to investigate fines mobilization, deposition, and control mechanisms. Analyze data and interpret findings to generate high-quality research outputs. Publish research findings in high-impact journals and present at international conferences. Collaborate with faculty, industry partners, and research groups to align research objectives with industry needs. Mentor graduate students and assist in proposal writing for securing external funding.Minimum QualificationEducation: PhD in Petroleum Engineering, or a closely related field. Technical Expertise: Strong background in fines migration, formation damage, or reservoir engineering. Hands-on experience with laboratory equipment (e.g., core flooding apparatus, particle analyzers). Proficiency in reservoir simulation software and computational modeling tools. Research Skills: Proven track record of publications in peer-reviewed journals. Experience with data analysis and visualization tools (e.g., MATLAB, Python).Preferred Qualification
