Om studiet

A Master's in Reservoir and Geoenergy focuses on theoretical and experimental studies of flow and processes that are crucial for subsurface understanding in the context of energy exploitation, energy storage and CO2 storage. You'll be qualified for various positions in the energy industry.

What will you learn?


As a graduate you will have deep, research-based knowledge and an extensive understanding of multiphase fluid flow in porous media. You will also qualify to continue in the industry and/or further research specialisation.

You will achieve:  

  • Solid, scientifically based knowledge of various energy resources, their uses and development strategies.  
  • A basic knowledge of geology and in-depth knowledge of fluid flow in porous media and the processes related to energy utilisation, and CO2 and H2 storage.  
  • An understanding of the global energy mix and familiarity with how Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) can be used to reduce CO2 emissions.  
  • Knowledge of experimental apparatus, instruments and measurements.  
  • Knowledge of the numerical simulation of subsurface flow.  
  • Knowledge of various Reservoir and Geoenergy disciplines.
     

Student life
 

We make sure students are a natural part of the research group and the working environment is informal. Many different nationalities work together in our research group. We also have a close relationship with international universities and the energy industry, with regular meetings. You can also apply for a desk in a study room at the department.

During your studies, you will work closely with an academic supervisor whose expertise is in the field of your thesis topic, and who will help you draw up a progress plan with important milestones for your project. You can focus your master's thesis on topics ranging from fundamental fluid flow in porous media, to topics that are more relevant for the industry today. You are expected to work independently, where you make use of appropriate methods and scientific working techniques in the research of relevant material.

Career


Our master’s students mostly work as:
