About this position

Natural Gas Hydrate: Development, Characterization, Modeling and Analysis is a postdoctoral research opportunity hosted by the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Morgantown, West Virginia. The project is part of NETL’s Research and Innovation Center and is carried out through ORISE under the mentorship of Yongkoo Seol.

The research focuses on natural gas hydrates and the scientific and engineering questions involved in understanding their behavior in natural environments and during production scenarios. The selected researcher will contribute to NETL’s National Gas Hydrate Research and Development Program, supporting efforts that aim to improve predictive models and methods for gas hydrate systems.

Project activities span both experimental and computational work. On the experimental side, the team studies hydrate-bearing sediments through high-pressure, low-temperature laboratory investigations, geomechanical stress-strain measurements, water conductivity, and relative permeability tests. The work also includes high-resolution visualization of hydrate distributions and fluid migration in porous media under in situ conditions.

On the modeling side, the project involves numerical predictions of fluid migration, gas production, and reactions during gas production activities, as well as simulations of long-term production tests. The researcher may also work on machine learning approaches to gas hydrate systems, including parameter estimation tools and large-scale 3D geologic models for gas hydrate reservoirs.

The position offers exposure to laboratory characterization, numerical reservoir simulation, machine learning application, basin petroleum system modeling, and data analysis, depending on the participant’s background and the available project focus. NETL describes the fellowship as a high-intensity program designed to help postdoctoral researchers develop advanced skills while working with principal investigators, leads, and world-class scientists in a national laboratory environment.

This is an educational research appointment at a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory, with opportunities to contribute to publications, presentations, and other scholarly outputs.

Funding details

Post-doctoral stipend of $7,860 per month; stipend commensurate with educational level and experience.

What's required

Applicants must have received a doctoral degree within the last five years or be currently enrolled in a doctoral degree program and complete the degree prior to the appointment start date. The ideal candidate will have some knowledge or experience in high-pressure/low-temperature laboratory experiments, geomechanical characterization and analysis, high-resolution image analysis, machine learning algorithm application, programming in C++, Fortran, Matlab, or Python, and basin model development (PetroMod). Not all of these skills are required.

How to apply

Submit the online application through Zintellect. Include your academic history, work history, honors and awards, goals statement, transcripts, current resume/CV, and contact information for at least two recommenders. Ensure all documents are in English or include official English translations.
