INTRODUCTION
Our MSc in Oil and Gas Technology students will have a unique opportunity to be trained in a number of very expensive instruments that are recognized in Industry and Science as leading techniques in the study of porous media; the heart of an oil and gas reservoir. It is almost impossible in any place in the world for an MSc student to have the chance to gain work experience with all these instruments; one reason being that in large Universities such instruments are heavily loaded, leaving very little room for new scientists to use them. At IHU our philosophy for the facility usage is a research open lab-ware system (RolWare see our brochure) where 24/7 access is provided to potential users. All you need is to choose the lab you like to practice on and then to arrange an appointment with our technicians for a training course. After that you may book the instrument for a period of time and work on your own project. Among many instruments, equipment, and lab systems we collect the following groups:
X-RAYS
Small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS)
Energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry system (EDS)
MICROSCOPES
Transmission electron microscope (TEM) Low vacuum scanning electron microscope (SEM)
POROUS MEDIA AND COLLOIDS
High pressure adsorption apparatus
GEOPHYSICS
Ground penetrating radar (GPR) Audio magnetotellurics (AMT/CSAMT) Supplementary equipment for borehole and marine applications
FUELS
Carl-Fisher distillation tower Reformulyzer Thermo gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC)
SPECTROMETERS
Mass spectrometers (MS; ICP-MS; MS/MS) |
