Master's Programme in Reservoir and Geoenergy

The master’s programme 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.

The world is facing potentially disastrous climate change. We need to reduce CO2 emissions, and at the same time find solutions for the world’s increasing energy demand. In order to reach these goals, we must find more efficient ways to use our energy sources. Methods such as Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) make sure we extract more oil from existing installations, while also serving as storage for CO2. In the Master's Programme in Reservoir and Geoenergy, we study questions like: 

• What is the most environmentally friendly methods of enhanced oil recovery? 
• How can we most efficiently manage remaining oil and gas reserves? 
• How can CO2 be used for enhanced oil recovery and at the same time stored safely in reservoirs?  

With a master's in Reservoir and Geoenergy, you will have 

• a thorough knowledge of various disciplines in reservoir and geoenergy
• knowledge about sustainable oil and gas recovery  
• knowledge about CO2 handling and storage
