The Reservoir Physics – Energy Technology and CO2 Storage (CCUS) Research Group at the Department of Physics and Technology emphasizes research and education within subsurface energy security & efficiency and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Our current focus areas are:
- CO2 storage in saline aquifers and mature reservoirs
- Hydrogen flow dynamics
- CO2 mobility control using foam and polymers
- Carbon neutral gas production from methane hydrate
Energy Technology and CO2 Storage are selected by the University of Bergen as areas of special importance with respect both to research and educational programs.
The University of Bergen offers a 5-year engineering degree in Energy, a 2-year master's programme in Reservoir and Geoenergy and a continuing education course in carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS). The Research Group is responsible for teaching courses in the energy programmes and offers research based education within the master programs.
