DHRTC's network
DHRTC is a
partnership between five of Denmark's leading research institutions: Aalborg University, Aarhus University, University of Copenhagen, National Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and the Technical University of Denmark. We gather teams across the network and utilize the cutting-edge expertise of each partner institution. In addition, we are in constant dialogue with industry partners and researchers outside DHRTC. We see this network approach as the most optimal approach to pioneering research that makes a difference in the field.
The creation of the DHRTC
The Danish Hydrocarbon Research and Technology Centre (DHRTC) was formed in 2014, as part of Denmark's long-term national strategy for energy. On behalf of Danish Underground's Consortium partners TOTAL, Noreco and the North Sea Fund, Maersk Oil (now TOTAL) entered into an agreement with DTU to establish and operate the Danish Hydrocarbon Research and Technology Centre research centre. The relationship between DHRTC and DUC is described in our Scientific Framework and contract, which are available
here. You can also read our annual reports
