Svenn Tveit holds a masters degree in petroluem technology (2011) and PhD in applied mathematics (2015) from University of Bergen. He started at NORCE (former UniResearch CIPR) in 2014. His main research interests are developing simulation models for flow in porous media, especially coupled physical, chemical and biological processes. These models can be applied, among others, to CO2 and hydrogen storage, petroleum recovery and groundwater flow. Lately, he has work with developing and implementing new modules into the simulation tool OPM.
