Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and apply new methods to quantify geological and technical uncertainties in geothermal exploration and appraisal
  • Simulate heat and fluid flow for ensembles of reservoir models
  • Support data collection for geothermal systems
  • Perform probabilistic techno-economic assessments
Requirements
  • Master's degree in applied geology, hydrogeology, or (geothermal) reservoir engineering
  • Experience in integrating geoscience with fluid flow modeling or knowledge in simulating heat and fluid flow processes in geological formations
  • Programming experience (e.g., Python, Matlab)
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
What We Offer
  • 4-year PhD position with a competitive salary and benefits
  • Opportunity to work in a highly interdisciplinary and international research environment
  • Access to state-of-the-art research facilities and equipment
  • Collaboration with a diverse team of researchers and industry partners
