Post-doctoral, Doctoral and Master's degrees in oil reservoir simulation and proxy modelling


UNISIM, a research group on simulation and management of oil fields, linked to the Department of Energy, Petroleum Engineering Division of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Campinas (UNICAMP), in selecting candidates for Postdoctoral, Doctoral and Master to apply proxy modelling, including artificial intelligence techniques, in numerical simulation of reservoirs, uncertainty analysis and decision.


The initiative is part of an oil company project with a real dataset (fields) to speed up reservoir development and management of oilfields using numerical and proxy models.


Candidates should develop topics related to Engineering, Physics, Computing, Mathematics, Statistics, or one or more of them, including reservoir simulation and statistics, and have advanced knowledge in the English language.


Post-doctorate with a duration of 3 years to start immediately.

Master and doctorate to begin in March 2022.


Interested candidates should send the following documents to .
