Closing date: January 31, 2012

We are seeking a post-doc with experience in fluvial sedimentology and stratigraphy for an 18-month to 2+ year project examining Lower Cretaceous strata in Alberta, Canada. The data set includes core and abundant subsurface data. The project is aimed at providing a detailed reservoir characterization of the fluvial deposits and will include depositional and stratigraphic reconstructions. In addition, several new analytical techniques will be used to assess smaller-scale reservoir heterogeneities.

The project is fully funded for at least 18 months and will likely be extended further.

Salary will be ample and commensurate with quality of the applicant.

Individuals interested in this position are encouraged to contact either Per Pedersen (pkpeders@ucalgary.ca), or Andrew Leier (aleier@ucalgary.ca) directly.

The starting date can be as soon as possible, but no later than May, 2012.

The Centre for Applied Basin Studies (http://ucalgary.ca/cabs/) within the Department of Geoscience at the University of Calgary is located in Calgary, Alberta, in the heart of the Canadian Oil and Gas industry.
