Fluid-Rock Interactions in Unconventional Petroleum Systems
We will study the fundamental geochemistry of fluid-rock interactions in unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs in Wyoming and Colorado. A major petroleum company is considering funding this work for important reservoirs in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming and the Denver-Julesburg Basin of Wyoming and Colorado.

Ongoing Project – Graduate Student and Postdoc
Multi-Scale Fluid-Solid Interactions in Architected and Natural Materials (MUSE)
We are members of a DOE Energy Frontier Research Center that is exploring fluid-solid interactions at interfaces and within nanopores, in synthetic materials (analogues of shale) as well as shale itself. The goal is to develop an understanding how these processes manifest as macroscopic transport and mechanical phenomena.
