Job Summary:
Organizing and executing analytical work central to examining the isotopic contents and structures of n-alkanes from natural gases; data processing and interpretation; preparation of scientific report and lead authorship of peer- reviewed scientific publications derived from this work. Analytical work will be performed in the laboratories for stable isotope geochemistry. This is a 6 month term position.
Job Duties:
– Receipt, organization, and archiving of gas samples. – Chemical purification of n-alkanes from gas samples. – High resolution mass spectrometric analysis of n-alkanes. – Processing and interpretation of mass spectrometric data. – Review of current literature relevant to the study of the stable isotope geochemistry of natural gases. – Preparation of written and oral reports of results. – Preparation of peer reviewed publications based on results. – Other duties as assigned.
Basic Qualifications:
– Ph.D. in geochemistry and at least 2 years of relevant postdoctoral research training. – At least 2 years of experience with clumped and site-specific isotopic analysis of n-alkanes. – Knowledge of the geology and geochemistry of natural gas accumulations, and of the stable isotope geochemistry of organic compounds. – Skill at operating high-resolution isotope ratio mass spectrometers, including the Thermo Fisher Ultra.
