PhD Research Fellow in Energy Transition Geology

1 week ago


Bergen, Vestland, Norway University of Bergen Full time
About the Project

The project 'Salt Solutions' is an interdisciplinary initiative that integrates 2D and 3D seismic and well data with state-of-the-art numerical forward modelling to understand salt basin geometry and intra-salt heterogeneity on salt flow and deformed salt bodies.

As a PhD Research Fellow, you will work on understanding 3D salt basin morphology and intra-salt lithological heterogeneity controlling salt flow and structure at different temporal and spatial scales using seismic, well data and numerical forward models.

  • You will use borehole-calibrated datasets to map faults and key intra- and supra-salt surfaces from sub-areas of the Norwegian North Sea and/or the Santos Basin, Brazil.
  • You will develop a tectono-stratigraphic framework for the salt and its sedimentary overburden.
  • You will test different salt basin geometries, intra-salt stratigraphic arrangements under various tectonic regimes and investigate their impact on basin-scale salt flow and diapiric deformation.
About the Position

The University of Bergen is seeking two PhD Research Fellows within Salt Stratigraphy and Tectonics for the Energy Transition. The positions are for a fixed-term period of three years with the possibility of a fourth year consisting of career-promoting work.

The fellows will be affiliated with the 'Salt Solutions' project, an interdisciplinary initiative integrating seismic, well data and numerical forward modelling to understand salt basin dynamics.
