Job summary

DTU Offshore at DTU invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher to advance understanding of coupled processes in geological formations and their implications for subsurface energy and fluid storage systems.

You will develop and apply advanced simulation workflows, collaborate with an international team of academics and industry partners, and contribute to high-impact publications and practical energy-transition solutions.

Qualifications

PhD in geoscience or related discipline.
Experience with numerical modelling of subsurface processes and laboratory investigations relevant to fluid flow, geomechanics, geochemistry, or microbial processes in porous media.
Strong programming and computational modelling skills.
Knowledge of coupled multiphysics processes relevant to underground storage systems.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively in multidisciplinary teams.

Responsibilities

Advance the understanding and prediction of processes governing underground energy and fluid storage through development and application of advanced simulation workflows.
Investigate coupled multiphysics phenomena in geological formations and contribute to improving safety, efficiency, and long-term performance of subsurface storage systems.
Collaborate with colleagues at DTU, industrial partners, and international researchers to conduct high-quality research bridging fundamental science and practical energy-transition applications.
