Background

Dr. Halvor Møll Nilsen has a background from atomic physics. He did a M.Sc. (Cand. Scient.) in physics and a PhD (Dr. Scient.) in atomic physics at the University in Bergen.  During his work in atomic physics he worked in the Physics Institute at the University of Bergen, Oxford University, Nordic Institute of Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen and Center of Mathematics for Applications at the University of Oslo. Since he came to SINTEF in 2005 he has worked with CO₂ storage issues. Much of this work has been done in the project Mathematical Modeling and Risk Analysis.

Research Interests

His current work is mainly focused on fast simulation of CO₂ storage.  In this research, streamline methods combined with front tracking methods has been developed. Currently he is involved in developing and applying vertical equlibrium models to CO₂ storage applications. 

He is also involved in the work on  MATLAB Reservoir Simulation Toolbox  MRST
