Suncor Energy Inc. and Memorial University will collaborate on a research program for three Master’s student interns to study the crustal structure and geological history of the petroleum-bearing Flemish Pass Basin and adjoining Central Ridge, offshore Newfoundland and Labrador. The goal of the research is to understand the large and small-scale tectonic processes that formed […]

The challenges and problems concerning the energy crisis, environmental protection and also global warming force human societies to use alternative green and renewable energy resources instead of conventional resources. In this regard, hydrogen gas as an important energy carrier has been noticed seriously. This project aims to concentrate on the CFD simulation of a solar […]

As the main product of many renewable power plants, hydrogen plays a substantial role in the transition from the use of fossil fuels to renewable energy resources. Hydrogen can be liquefied, enhancing its desirability as an energy carrier. An innovative integrated structure for hydrogen and CO2 liquefaction from biomass and wind energy is proposed. It […]

One of the major problems listed by many energy companies is flow assurance which involves significant efforts and costs to prevent hydrate blockages in the oil and gas facilities. Gas hydrate forms so rapidly and without warning in the offshore pipelines relative to waxes, scales, or asphaltenes. Although the hydrate plug formation rate is fast, […]

The increasing concentration of CO2 has caused various adverse environmental effects on the Earth’s oceans, land, and atmosphere, leading to a worldwide consensus on the necessity of action and commitment to emission reduction. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), which involves capturing CO2 resulting from industrial processes for storage in underground geological formations, has proven to […]

RagnaRock Northern Brewing Company Ltd. is a 5-barrel craft brewery in St. Anthony, Newfoundland, that opened in November 2019 with three owners just before the start of the pandemic. The craft beer scene in NL is growing in popularity and with an increase in demand for our product, RagnaRock is getting ready for a busy […]

Instrumar Limited’s core technology platform, used in both industrial and aerospace industries, is based on the measurement of electrical properties of materials that come in contact with its sensor. The sensors sample data in real time and provide feedback based on parameters that are determined through extensive testing. Instrumar receives terabytes of data from its […]

POWER HV is a technology company focusing on carbon emission reduction. Through their sensor product, they help power plants increase the efficiency of the grid and improve its stability in challenging weather by tracking every single bushing and predicting a bushing failure. Exploiting the generated massive sensor data can contribute to an automatic and intelligent […]

Acrylic Robotics is a robotics startup based in Montreal, on a mission to use technology to make fine art accessible to the general public. To make fine art accessible, this project focuses on the development of a physical motion capture system to capture and recreate the artist’s brushstrokes. The intern will assist in the development […]

qualiTEAS’ product, Argus 1.21, is machine learning based computer vision application that can analyze images of offshore structures and detect corrosion-mediated damages. Through this project, qualiTEAS is aimed to develop a next-generation machine vision solution that can detect corrosion impact on a 3D representation of the asset.

The developed software product by the qualiTEAS team requires more data to train machine learning-based algorithms. The general objective of this project is to improve the final product of the qualiTEAS team through implementing the innovative design of experiment techniques. The current project will help the qualiTEAS team overcome current challenges and barriers towards improving […]

This project will apply causal discovery methods to two model-generated datasets. One is a dataset describing the transport of emerging contaminant metformin in the groundwater; the other is a card fraud transaction dataset. The method will examine the dataset’s underlying structure (data skeleton). Multiple new methods will be evaluated and tested on the datasets. The […]
