Institite of Peroleum Engineering Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK
Phd Studentship in Reservoir Engineering
There is currently a vacancy for one PhD student to work within the industry-sponsored Edinburgh Time-Lapse Project based at the Heriot-Watt Institute of Petroleum Engineering in the UK. This consortium is now in its fourth three-year phase, which continues our research effort into the development of new techniques and understanding for the quantitative interpretation of 4D seismic data via integration with reservoir engineering principles. Details of our activities can be found on the project website www.pet.hw.ac.uk/research/etlp
Description of the project
Your research will investigate the possibility of using 4D seismic data acquired over short intervals to provide a simple fluid flow simulation for the purposes of short term forecasting of reservoir performance. It builds on past work by the group on the topics of pressure-saturation extraction, permeability estimation, and barrier identification from 4D seismic. Application to observed seismic and reservoir data donated by sponsoring companies will be an essential element of this research.
Qualifications*
You will require an excellent undergraduate degree and preferably a First Degree and/or Masters in Reservoir Engineering, Physics or Applied Mathematics. You should be self-motivated, enthusiastic and possess good written and oral communication skills. A solid underlying knowledge of reservoir engineering, particularly reservoir simulation, combined with some understanding of seismic will be required. We are particularly interested in candidates with strong computational skills, in particular competent programming skills in C, C++, or Fortran are necessary. Several years experience of working in a relevant area within the oil industry is desirable but not essential.
Our PhD degree
The PhD degree in the UK is normally of three years duration. In the ETLP group, students are expected to undertake an MPhil in year 1 and then progress onto their PhD in years 2 and 3 should their work be of satisfactory quality. The studentships currently on offer pay for all tuition fees and the living allowance for these three years. In addition, funding is available to cover travel and expenses to conferences and meetings with sponsoring companies. We aim to start this PhD project at a mutually agreeable date between May and August of 2009
Contact
Candidates should contact Prof. Colin MacBeth at the Institute of Petroleum Engineering, Heriot-Watt University (colin.macbeth@pet.hw.ac.uk), attaching a CV detailing experience and qualifications as indicated above.
*Applicants who clearly do not adhere to the specifications defined above will be rejected outright, without reply.
2 PhD. Research fellowships Primary migration and multiphase flow in very low permeability rocks
The Center of Excellence for the Physics of Geological Processes (PGP) at the University of Oslo is seeking two Ph.D. candidates to investigate the formation and migration of hydrocarbon fluids in source rocks, and their injection into secondary migration pathways. The goal is to better understand the complex coupling between hydrocarbon generation, pore pressure build-up, fracturing and fluid migration in source rocks, and escape of the fluids towards the reservoir.
Computational fellowship
The Ph.D. project will involve the application of discrete element methods, particle methods (dissipative particle dynamics and smoothed particle hydrodynamics) and continuum methods to simulate source rock maturation. The project will require code development based on existing code, and experience with high performance computing would be a distinct asset. The fellow will be expected to travel occasionally to Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to work with professor Paul Meakin.
For further information, contact: Professor Anders Malthe-Sørenssen, malthe@fys.uio.no
Experimental fellowship
The Ph.D. project involves development of new laboratory experiments to investigate source rock maturation, quantitative characterization of experimental and field samples using high resolution X-ray tomography and more standard microscopy techniques, and some numerical work to analyze experimental data. The fellow will be expected to travel occasionally to Grenoble to perform experiments at ESRF and to work with professor Francois Renard.
For further information please contact: Professor Dag K. Dysthe, dagkd@fys.uio.no
For further information visit our web site: www.fys.uio.no/pgp and follow the links to the formal announcements.
The successful candidates, who already have Masters degrees in physics, geoscience, material science, applied mathematics or equivalent education, will work in a lively cross-disciplinary and international environment (fourteen nationalities are currently represented in PGP). PGP is a new cross-disciplinary science centre at the interface between physics and geology where geological processes are approached by integrated field, experimental, theoretical, and computer modeling studies. The two successful candidates will be enrolled in the Ph.D. program at the Department of Physics at the University of Oslo and they will work closely together.
This company began its operations within the oil and gas industry over 50 years ago. They are a very diverse company that covers all aspects of the oil and gas industry. In recent years focus has moved to the upstream business, acquiring several proven onshore oil and gas fields in the North Sea, applying secondary-recovery techniques to enhance production. They have succeeded in building a worldwide portfolio of business and are looking to further expand into new markets especially in Europe.
Role
Working with a team of geoscientists, this role offers an excellent opportunity to develop research ideas into workable solutions and to present and report findings both internally and at external conferences. You would also supervise student intern projects.
Skills and Experience
Ideal candidates for this role should have a PhD in Petroleum Engineering or Fluid Mechanics and have a high level of expertise in reservoir simulation. Ideally you should have a minimum of 5 years of oil and gas experience and either be living or willing to re-locate to Aberdeen.
