NETL’s Jordan Musser examines multiphase flow within a reactor using the Lab’s Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges (MFiX) code.
NETL researchers reached a high-performance computing (HPC) milestone, running advanced energy modeling code on the world’s first exascale supercomputer — a powerful new class of computing systems capable of ushering in a new era of precision, fidelity and reliability for simulation-based engineering.
NETL researchers take basic measurements on site near the wellheads and prepare samples for microbiology analysis when back at the Lab.
A first-of-its-kind NETL research project involving the Bakken Shale has shown that a one-size-fits-all approach to understanding the subsurface and overcoming well site operational and water management challenges doesn’t necessarily apply. This is due to the often variable chemical and biological dynamics present at fossil fuel well sites.

Mickey Leland Energy Fellowship Program
The application period is open to become a summer intern at NETL through the U.S. Department of Energy’s Mickey Leland Energy Fellowship (MLEF) Program. The MLEF Program offers summer research internships for undergraduate and graduate students preparing for energy-related careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). MLEF interns are mentored by NETL scientists and engineers while completing research projects focused on developing clean energy technologies and moving the nation toward net-zero emissions. The deadline to submit completed applications for the MLEF Program is 11:59 p.m. EST Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2025, for internships at NETL sites in Albany, Oregon; Morgantown, West Virginia; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Click here to apply and for more information. Recent MLEF interns said their experiences at NETL exceeded their expectations.
NETL develops the world’s first computational fluid dynamics simulation on the Wafer Scale Engine, paving the way for a new class of high-performance computing.
NETL and partner Cerebras Systems of Sunnyvale, California, have been awarded $8 million by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to advance the study of scientific phenomena using the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE).
