Postdoctoral Fellow - Relative Permiability in Shale
Core
Quantify multiphase flow and gas–condensate relative permeability in unconventional reservoirs to evaluate production impact.
Role type
Postdoctoral Researcher (Petrophysics/Geomechanics)
Builds
Experimental data on nano-Darcy shale flow and numerical models of multiphase transport
Domain
Energy (Oil & Gas) / Subsurface Fluid Transport
Deliverable
production ML models | research
Required skills
High-pressure core experiments, petrophysical measurements, fluid transport mechanisms, data analysis, scripting (Python/MATLAB/LabVIEW)
Preferred skills
Compositional reservoir simulators (CMG GEM, ECLIPSE), coupled geomechanics-fluid flow simulation, digital rock physics, CT scanning
Responsibilities
Operate and modify gas-expansion/liquid-transient flow systems; quantify capillary pressure and saturation in nano-Darcy shale; investigate fracture–matrix interactions; develop analytical and numerical models to interpret lab measurements
Seniority
Postdoctoral Fellow (1-year renewable)
