New PhD opportunity at University of Manchester and University of Bristol: Determination of processes governing hypogene dissolution and collapse of carbonate rocks

An exciting new PhD opportunity is available as a joint project between University of Manchester and University of Bristol. The project will undertake a holistic interpretation of the structural, sedimentological and diagenetic processes that govern the occurrence and location of collapse features in carbonate platforms, coupled with process-based understanding of interactions between fluid flow and water-rock interaction. It will integrate geophysical interpretation, core characterisation, diagenetic analysis and reactive transport modelling using datasets from the West Canada Sedimentary Basin, UK and offshore Norway. The results will have a wide range of impact to subsurface energy production, gas storage and carbon sequestration, including applications to reservoir properties, seal integrity and the flux of geothermal fluids.
