Postdoctoral Researcher (foam Ccs)

Al Ain, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Job Description

CO2 injection into geological formations is a crucial means for carbon sequestration on a climate-impact scale. Nevertheless, the storage capacity in subsurface porous rocks is limited by the poor sweep and trapping efficiency of the gas injected. Foam is a promising technology for improved gas sweep and trapping, which enhances the storage capacity and safe trapping of CO2. One key to success of foam applications for large-scale carbon sequestration lies on long-distance placement of foam into formations. The goal of this project is to determine the conditions for long-distance propagation of CO2 foam in porous media and quantify the impact of influential factors. The results are expected to demonstrate the feasibility of CO2 foam for large-scale carbon sequestration on lab scale.Minimum QualificationAn appropriate educational degree supplemented with documented evidence to support the following: a PhD degree in reservoir engineering, petroleum engineering, hydrology or any discipline closely related to multi-phase flow through porous media. Experiences in conducting complex coreflood experiments Excellent writing and oral communication skills in English Acceptable to travel to collaborating institutions Good spirit in team workPreferred Qualification
