JOBS

Three Positions:
GIS Specialist, Numerical Modeler, and Structural Geologist
1- GIS Specialist: Tasks include compilation of hydrocarbon well data (location, depth, formations penetrated, completion status) and available well logs into a GIS database. Interested candidates should send an application to Dr. James Myers at magma@uwyo.edu.

2- Numerical Modeler: Tasks include using Petrel and ECLIPSE software to 1) create three-dimensional earth models using geological characterization and numerical upscaling; 2) conduct simulations to generate prediction envelopes of CO2 migration. Experience in building/simulating numerical models is required. Programming skill is desired. Knowledge in integrating geological/engineering data types is a plus. This particular position is funded for 2 years. Interested candidates should send an application to Dr. Ye Zhang at yzhang9@uwyo.edu

3- Structural Geologist: Tasks include using Petrel and ECLIPSE software to 1) conduct analysis of seismic and well log data to create a three-dimensional subsurface model; 2) generate structure contour maps and fault network model for the sequestration horizons; 3) determine fracture density/orientation within the storage reservoirs and sealing horizons using core, FMI logs, and outcrops. Interested candidates should send an application to Dr. Erin Campbell-Stone at erincs@uwyo.edu.
