We seek a Mendenhall Postdoctoral Fellow who will develop advanced approaches for modeling and/or monitoring the processes associated with exchanging fluids and gases in subsurface geologic systems.  The successful applicant will have broad latitude to focus on production from gas hydrate and other hydrocarbon sources, gas injection, fluid production, or multiple of these areas.  We will provide a computing environment that includes leading numerical reservoir modeling software options including the   TOUGH+HYDRATE   and   STOMP-HYDT-KE   codes, along with the   E3D   elastic wave propagation system, and the USGS’ world-class   high-performance computing systems .  Further, we can provide field data from current cutting edge research programs such as the ongoing Alaska Gas Hydrate production test that provides a wealth of characterization and monitoring data including surface 3D seismic data, four research boreholes with extensive log data, fiber optic distributed acoustic...

Stanford University invites applications for a tenure-track, Assistant Professor focusing on Freshwater. Freshwater resources are increasingly being taxed by the regional impacts of climate, land-use, and population changes. The greater frequency and magnitude of floods and droughts has taken its toll in many regions. Around the world, groundwater storage is declining, pollution is increasing, surface water reservoir storage is low, and major reservoir development has plateaued. Consequently, transboundary and sectoral competition for freshwater has grown. New approaches to quantitative analysis of freshwater systems are key to enhancing sustainability. We invite candidates that have completed or will soon complete their PhD in the area of freshwater (including natural sciences, engineering, and related fields) to apply. The successful candidate will serve as a tenure-track Assistant professor in Stanford’s Doerr School for Sustainability. Candidates must have an exceptional...

Job description We are seeking an individual who is highly motivated to drive the development and optimization of surface facilities for CPG, ranging from conceptual engineering to techno-economics. As CPG Process Engineer you will contribute to coupled surface - subsurface optimization of CPG, including the identification of novel methods for the seperation of impurities in the CO2 production stream, sizing of CO2 turbines and CO2 coolers and condensers, and CPG techno-economics. Your conceptual engineering capability will lead to innovative field development plans and integration opportunities with users of the power produced by CPG. Leveraging your expertise and modeling insights, your innovative thinking extends the state-of-the-art of CPG technology and drives the development of high-value CPG projects together with industry partners.   Your profile You have a university degree (MSc or PhD) in Mechanical/Chemical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics or equivalent...
