Scope of project, aims, approach, focus. Read more
Investigation of confinement effects on phase and flow behaviours of gas and condensate fluids with and without CO2 in unconventional reservoirs
Research Group:
Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering
Project Ref. JWS2023-MJ. It is believed that in nano- and micro-pores of Unconventional Reservoirs (URs) pore-wall-fluid intermolecular forces are so important that the fluid phase behaviour and properties of fluids residing in these pores cannot be captured by the conventional bulk fluid data. Read more
Investigation of Flow through Wellbore Cements
Research Group:
Institute of GeoEnergy Engineering
Project Ref. DANESH2023-MS. Introduction. Achieving Net Zero in the required timescale depends, to a great extent, on our ability to permanently remove large quantities of CO2 from the atmosphere as well as replacing carbon-based fuels with non-carbon alternatives. Read more
Funded EPSRC DTP PhD Studentship: Net-zero propulsion and supply-chains management of sustainable aviation fuels towards delivering a green aviation
Alternative clean and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) will play an essential role in delivering a net-zero aviation. This cross-disciplinary PhD project aims to provide new understanding of the combustion performance and the fuels’ impact on net-zero propulsion. Read more
Polymer Processing in a Circular Plastics Economy
The Sustainable Materials Innovation Hub within the Department of Materials at the University of Manchester and housed in the Henry Royce Institute is seeking enthusiastic and collaborative polymer chemists or engineers to develop the next generation of sustainable polymers. Read more
Modelling heat and mass transfer during liquid hydrogen refuelling
Liquified hydrogen (LH2) is considered as the most practical storage method onboard heavy duty vehicles (HDV), trains, ships and planes in case of long distances. Read more
Risk and Consequence Analysis of CO2 Transportation
Carbon Capture Storage & Utilisation (CCUS) is one way of preventing CO2 emissions from anthropogenic industrial activities reaching the atmosphere and contributing to climate change. Read more
Development of Advanced Coatings for Improved Environmental Performance PhD
Global warming and climate change are consequences of greenhouse gases produced by burning fossil fuels. These gases trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere. Read more
Fluid-rock interaction and its influence on rock mechanical properties
Rock and fluid interactions alternate the fluid flow and mechanical properties of porous material and thus play a significant role in many aspects of subsurface engineering application, for example CO2 geological storage and enhanced hydrocarbon recovery. Read more
Macroscopic capillary pressure in multi-phase porous media flows
Although multi-phase flow in porous media is an established research field for decades, its theoretical background is still being developed. Read more
Feasibility study of mineral mining from subsurface reservoirs for renewable energy storage
Critical minerals such as alkali metals play an important role in batteries and fuel cells. Their demand is expected to increase as more of the world turns to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems. Read more
Ultrasound Based Technology for Removal of Scale from Downhole Production Tubing
One of the significant challenges facing the oil and gas industry is the reduction of oil production due to precipitation of scales in the downhole tubing. … Read more
Mass transport and interaction of ions in porous media with a prospect of energy storage
Understanding the mass transport mechanisms in micro channels and porous media is key in designing many engineering processes. The aim of this project is to investigate the mechanisms of fluid flow through porous materials with different morphology considering the interactions of ions with solid surfaces. Read more
