Are you interested to be part of the energy transition R&D? 

The Danish Offshore Technology Centre (DOTC), Technical University of Denmark (DTU), invites applicants for three research positions on interdisciplinary investigations in the fields of Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS), Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), and environmental impacts. By joining our team, you will be working in an international environment with some of the largest industrial players (e.g., TotalEnergies and Nordsøfonden) as well as renowned scientists from various research institutes across the world. These projects are part of DOTC’s aspiration to be a key player in the energy transition, and we are looking for ambitious colleagues who share this vision.

The main possible areas of research include experimental and numerical modelling studies within:

• Microbial growth in hydrogen storage salt caverns and the interplay with transport processes (diffusion and convection)
• The bio-geo-chemistry of leakage from CO2 storage reservoirs and the potential impacts on the ecology of the seabed sediments considering the full chemical composition of leaking fluids
• CO2 leakage assessment through reservoir scale non-isothermal reactive flow modelling and simulations
