Job Description

The Geology and Sustainable Mining Institute (GSMI) of the University Mohammed VI Polytechnic (UM6P) is seeking applications foran 18-month postdoctoral position in structural geology with a particular emphasis on hydrocarbon reservoir systems. We are especially interested in candidates with research interests in geomechanics, tectonics, sedimentary basin dynamics, and hydrocarbon reservoir systems. The selected candidate is expected to conduct fieldwork investigations, seismic interpretation, Image Log and core logging focused on structural geology of the Meskala basin. This will involve thorough structural analyses, multiscale stress and strain characterisation, analysis of hydrocarbon reservoirs, mainly traps characterisation (including the timing of trap formation) and fluid migration. The candidate must demonstrate a strong understanding of sedimentary basins, excellent proficiency in analyzing the different facets of hydrocarbon reservoir systems, interpreting seismic data, and applying structural geology and geomechanics principles. An experience in numerical modelling and/or petrophysics would be an asset for the candidate.

The position is open to candidates holding a Ph.D. degree in Geology, Earth Sciences, or a related field with a focus on structural geology and geomechanics.

Documents to be supplied:

• List of publications;
• Other documents that the candidate considers important for the hiring process.

The applications will be reviewed by a scientific committee. The selection board will decide from among the eligible applicants those who will be invited to attend an interview.
