Senior Research Scientist in Reservoir Simulation of Enhanced Oil Recovery Methods

jobbeskrivelse:
The Danish Hydrocarbon Research and Technology Centre (Centre for Oil and Gas – DTU), Technical University of Denmark (DTU), invites applicants for a position as Senior Research Scientist in Reservoir Simulation of Enhanced Oil Recovery Methods. Centre for Oil and Gas – DTU is established by the Danish Underground Consortium and DTU. The centre has received a starting grant of DKK 1 billion for a 10-year period and relies on close interaction between Academia and industry. As part of the National Strategy on Oil and Gas, the research centre is an ambitious, targeted effort to enable increased recovery of oil and gas from the Danish North Sea. The goal will be achieved by cooperation with the industry and other research institutions to further progress knowledge and solutions with application potential, and by contributing to research-based teaching programs. The Centre is currently in a build-up phase. We are therefore seeking high profile Senior Research Scientists who have the ambition and expertise to contribute to shaping the Centre. Responsibilities and tasks The Senior Research Scientist will together with the responsible scientific director define, initiate and conduct research within advanced reservoir simulation techniques, required to simulate Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)/Improved Oil Recovery (IOR) processes in the reservoirs of the Danish North Sea. The scope will include - but not be limited to - low permeable chalk reservoirs with and without natural fractures. The Senior Research Scientist must engage in a close coordination with the other Senior Research Scientists in the EOR area of the centre. The candidate will be responsible for a close coordination with the reservoir characterization activities as well as a close dialogue with the DUC experts on reservoir simulation. The Senior Research Scientist is expected to pursue research projects with a line-of-sight to application by engaging with external parties and with colleagues across the Centre. Furthermore the candidate will be responsible for the daily supervision of work within the centre at DTU and the coordination with activities undertaken by the research partners. The Senior Research Scientist will supervise PhD students, Postdocs, and technical personnel. Qualifications Candidates should have a PhD degree or equivalent as well as academic qualifications equivalent to those obtained by holding a position as Researcher or Postdoc. The candidate should have a strong background within reservoir simulation research with proven scientific excellence within scientific computing, applied mathematics or other relevant topics. A solid understanding of the combination of mathematical and numerical aspects as well as the physical processes is crucial, and thus the Senior Research Scientist must be familiar with all these areas. The position requires that the Senior Research Scientist masters to collaborate in a multi-disciplinary research centre. Experience with collaboration between academic research environments and industry is desirable. Assessment In the assessment of the candidates consideration will be given to: •scientific production and research potential at international level •innovative skills and the ability to generate new ideas •the ability to communicate at all levels such as the provision of scientific advice to public sector authorities •the ability to promote and utilize research results •an all-round experience basis, including international experience •the ability to contribute to development of the centre’s internal and external cooperation For the specific position consideration will also be given to: •experience from academia/industry collaboration •software development projects We offer We offer an interesting and challenging job in an international environment focusing on education, research, public-sector consultancy and innovation, which contribute to enhancing the economy and improving social welfare. We strive for
