Job description

Research Scientists in Experimental Research in Flow Systems and Process Engineering

We are seeking two highly motivated, experimentally focused Research Scientists. In this role, you will contribute to a diverse range of R&D projects, working with advanced experimental facilities to support process technology development within multiphase flows, and the testing and validation of equipment and technologies essential for a low emission oil and gas industry, the process industry and the energy transition.

This position is ideal for someone passionate about hands-on experimental work, engineering, problem-solving, and contributing to applied industrial research with societal impact. This role also offers considerable freedom. You will have opportunities to shape research from the conceptual stage, engage in projects you are passionate about, and leverage both your own network and SINTEF’s extensive contacts to advance your work.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, engineering, and execution of experimental campaigns, building and adapting rigs for research in flow systems and process engineering
  • Contribute with system design based on thermodynamics, mass / energy balances, and flow modeling and process modelling.
  • Analyze experimental data and support model validation and scale-up activities.
  • Document work in technical reports, publications, and presentations to clients and partners.
  • Share research outcomes through conferences, seminars, publications, and other platforms.
  • Develop and seek funding for national and international projects.
  • Management of R&D projects of varying size and complexity.

Qualifications

  • MSc or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering or related discipline, physics, mathematics, or chemistry.
  • Experience with hands-on testing (experimental or field work).
  • Strong understanding of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, fluid chemistry, and heat and mass transfer.
  • Previous knowledge of multiphase flows, fluid and process chemistry, emulsions, hydrates, wax, or O&G production system is a strong advantage.
  • Work experience or previous knowledge in flow assurance in emerging sectors such as CO 2 , NH 3 and others is an advantage.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to apply engineering principles to practical applications, including familiarity with process equipment such as pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, sensors, piping systems, reactors, and separators.
  • Knowledge of data analysis tools and programming (e.g programming skills : Matlab, C++ or Python).
  • It is an advantage to have knowledge of and experience with flow assurance software (LedaFlow, OLGA, PipeSim, PVTSIM or Multiflash), process simulators (Hysys or K-Spice) and / or CAD tools (e.g., Inventor).
  • Ability to work independently and in multidisciplinary teams.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills in English. Norwegian is an advantage.
  • Are you the one we are looking for?

    For more information about the positions, please contact Rune Levang ( ) or Marte Derås ( ) at Keystones AS, or Research Director Andrea Shmueli Alvarado ( ) at SINTEF Industry. Please submit your CV via our link.

    All inquiries will be treated confidentially if requested during the initial phase with the client. We look forward to hearing from you!

    The Department for Process Technology consists of 4 research groups in Trondheim, 2 in Oslo and 1 in Porsgrunn. The office location for these positions is at the SINTEF Multiphase Flow Laboratory at Tiller in Trondheim, so it is an advantage if you have a driver\'s licence and own transportation.
