The person holding this position is expected to contribute to work and studies performed in development phase including:
Integrating all available geological and geophysical data as well as documentation to understand regional geology and reservoirs architecture, to optimize the understanding of producing areas and maturation of upside potential on operated assets.
Using well, seismic, geological, and other potential reservoir data types as required to maintain an up-to-date geological understanding of the subsurface and associated operational risks, incorporating new data or insights as they become available.
Planning and carrying out geological evaluations and interpretations and modeling studies at field and near-field prospect scale, including multi-disciplinary datasets. When required, contributing to regional geological studies and analysis with the aid of well correlations, petrophysical data, reservoir maps and geophysical data within the area of interest.
Preparing the field appraisal, development well planning, near-field resource maturation and subsequently contributing to field development planning and full-field modeling / review.
Participating in definition, design and execution of data acquisition programs, and, if required, bringing office or onsite support for any relevant operations (e.g. geo-steering wells, operation geology).
When required, acting as a technical leader on relevant projects, coordinating cross-discipline activities.
Recommending and assisting with external studies, QC and apply study findings.
Providing QA/QC of Assets geological work ensuring that work is performed according to company’s best practices and industry standards required by an operationally and commercially efficient operator.
