NETL MHFP
Detailed information about The Methane Hydrates Fellowship Program can be found at MHFP.
The US Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) announces a new Research Fellowship program designed to support the development of METHANE HYDRATE science and enable highly qualified graduate and postgraduate students to pursue research in an area of increasing importance to the nation. The 2- or 3-year fellowships will be made available to support work towards M.S. and Ph.D. degrees, or in a postdoctoral appointment.
♦ With respect to the energy production potential of gas hydrates, interest is in projects that will provide improved tools, methods, and information relative to the remote detection, characterization, and appraisal of production potential of methane hydrates.
♦ With respect to gas hydrates as a part of the global environment, interest is in projects that provide an improved understanding of the processes that control the distribution, occurrence, and stability of gas hydrates in marine and permafrost settings.
