Hydrocarbon and Energy Research University of Calgary Engineering p19 World Leaders in Energy Research Canada is a world leader in the hydrocarbon and energy industry, with state-of-the-art technologies associated with economic and environmentally sustainable production of oil and gas. Engineering researchers from the University of Calgary have been and continue to be instrumental in establishing and perpetuating this leadership position. Located in Canada’s oil and gas capital, University of Calgary researchers have developed and refined key processes, such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), Vapor Solvent Extraction (VAPEX), Air Injection and Cold Production, that contribute to the sustainable development of hydrocarbon resources in Alberta and worldwide. Current research is aimed at developing novel technologies to enhance ultimate recovery of hydrocarbon resources while significantly reducing environmental footprints. Oil and gas, chemical, electrical, civil, and mechanical engineers contribute to our international recognition in applied reservoir modelling, development of innovative technologies for recovery of conventional and heavy oils, computational thermodynamics, and kinetics of hydrate formation and decomposition. Research groups include: Cold Production (VAPEX), Foamy Oil, Polymers, Steam Injection, Air Injection, Geotechnical and Reservoir Simulation, Process Simulation, Gas Hydrates, In-Situ Upgrading, Visualization and Imaging, Sustainable Hydrocarbon Resource Development (Sequestration of Greenhouse Gases), and Fuel Cells. Research programs integrate the collective expertise of the researchers and utilize state-of-the-art research facilities for developing solutions to practical problems encountered in the recovery of hydrocarbons from reservoirs.
