About This Opportunity  Queensland currently has a rapidly expanding liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry which provides gas to overseas customers.  A key challenge for industry is the ability to predict gas production rates from coal seams over time.  There is a need to establish reliable mechanistic models that include the properties of the coals to enable better predictions for existing wells and new locations. We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Fellow / Research Officer to work on a project that is closely aligned with the natural gas industry in Queensland.  The 2 main goals for the research are to use a tool to measure the shrinkage behaviour of a wide range of coal types and apply a wide range of analytical techniques to elucidate the fundamental mechanisms behind coal shrinkage as methane desorbs.  Shrinkage influences cleat aperture and coal seam permeability which in turn influences gas production rates.  The outcome of...
