Biography

Dr Chris Green is a research scientist with CSIRO Energy. He has a BSc with honours, a BEng with honours, and a PhD in applied mathematics from the University of Melbourne (2006). He joined CSIRO as a postdoctoral fellow working on upscaling methods for subsurface flow. Since then, his research has focussed on numerical and theoretical modelling of multiphase flow in porous media, with particular emphasis on buoyant migration of carbon dioxide in heterogeneous saline aquifers. He has been involved in several field-scale simulations of CO2 storage projects within Australia, is a core developer of the Porous Flow module in the MOOSE framework, and is currently involved in modelling large-scale underground hydrogen and thermal energy storage projects.
