Organisation profile
The Center for Energy Resources Engineering (CERE) is Denmark’s leading research center in the areas of applied thermodynamics, petroleum technology, Carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS), geoscience and computational methods related to these activities.
With an excellent track record and international reputation CERE uniquely combines strong competences from several academic fields. Most of our many diverse research projects are conducted in collaboration with one or more members of the CERE Consortium – a group of 21 leading companies in the field.
CERE is an independent, university based, research unit with more than 30 years of expertise in the field. The CERE co-workers are a mix of internationally renowned scientists and the sharpest young talents from different scientific communities around the group.
The research center unites experience with unique talent and educates tomorrow’s scientists and engineers. The education and training of MSc and doctoral students are some of the most important aspects of CERE’s activities.
