The Department of Geoscience in the Faculty of Science at the University of Calgary is accepting applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Applied Geochemistry group.
Job Description:
We are seeking a postdoctoral associate in the Applied Geochemistry group in the Department of Geoscience at the University of Calgary (Alberta, Canada) interested in conducting innovative research on the origin and migration of fluids associated with unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs. The successful candidate will use geochemical and isotopic tools and modeling approaches for flowback and produced fluids from oil and gas wells in Western Canada and elsewhere to investigate water-rock-gas interactions in low permeability hydrocarbon reservoirs, evaluate the origin of produced fluids, and develop tracer approaches suitable for detecting cross-formational flow and gas migration. There may also be opportunities to apply similar geochemical approaches to gas storage projects (e.g. CO2, hydrogen). Excellent communication skills and a high level of productivity in terms of peer-reviewed publications are expected.
Qualifications:
The applicant must have a PhD* in geology with specialization in geochemistry, or a closely related discipline.
Previous experience working with geochemical and/or isotopic data is required.
A record of innovative research evidenced by peer-reviewed publications in high-ranking journals.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
The applicant must be capable of working in a self-directed manner within a team environment.
Excellent multi-tasking skills to provide support to other members of the project team.
*To be eligible as a Postdoctoral scholar at the University of Calgary, you must have been awarded a PhD or equivalent within the five (5) years immediately preceding the appointment end date. Please review the Postdoc Eligibility Guidelines for more information prior to applying for this position.
Application details:
The successful applicant will commence the Postdoctoral Fellowship no later than July 1, 2022. Evaluation of applications will start on April 1, 2022.
