Summer internship, full time 20.06.22 - 29.07.22

Description

Do you believe technology is key to solving the climate change challenge?

Company Overview

Aker Carbon Capture is a dedicated carbon capture technology (CCUS) company that offers a reliable, field-proven and HSE-friendly way of removing emissions from industrial sources. Our patented solutions serve a range of carbon-emitting industries including cement, blue hydrogen, bio/waste-to-energy, refineries and steel. Through our portfolio of projects across Europe, we are mitigating the environmental cost of industrial activity for a cleaner, more sustainable future.

Our market potential grows daily as a rising number of customers look to CCUS and our company to solve their emissions challenges. Aker Carbon Capture is one of the few companies globally that has extensive knowledge of the entire CCUS value chain. We have more than a dozen ongoing projects, from concept studies to large EPC, and are tackling our biggest challenge yet: delivering the ground-breaking carbon capture plant at the Norcem cement factory in Brevik, Norway. This will be the world's first CO2-capture facility at a cement plant.

Are you ready to work with us to realise the enormous potential CCUS has in making a lasting, positive impact on our environment?

The Project

Three-four interns will work together in a sprint based agile workstream over 6 weeks to construct a digital application that will be used for carbon capture opertations from autumn 2022. The application will use live and legacy data from a running capture-plant to predict plant stability, and ensure high performance. The interns will work as an independent team, and will be required to question operators, process chemists and engineers to map needs and wishes and to make sure that the application developed suits the end users’ needs.

The interns will be supervised by Data and Operations under Technology and Innovation department in Aker Carbon Capture.
