The research program will perform petroleum geological and geochemical research to develop understanding and practical applications in the areas of A) the carbon efficient recovery of fossil fuels, and B) the study of the deep biosphere processes in fossil fuel reservoirs. Specific objectives are 1) to develop usage of new mass spectrometry advances in petroleum geochemistry and the development of methods for dating how long oil has been reservoired to better understand the origin of the oil sands in Alberta and 2) to investigate the processes of coal microbial biodegradation in the subsurface and examine the feasibility of accelerating microbial methane production from coal as an alternative to conventional coal use for energy generation.

该研究计划将进行石油地质和地球化学研究，以加深对以下领域的理解和实际应用：A)化石燃料的碳效率回收，以及B)化石燃料储藏中深层生物圈过程的研究。具体目标是：1)开发石油地球化学新的质谱学进展，开发测定石油储藏时间的方法，以更好地了解艾伯塔省油砂的来源；2)研究煤炭微生物在地下的生物降解过程，并研究加速煤炭微生物甲烷生产以替代传统煤炭发电的可行性。
