Job Description
Reservoir Management & Performance Monitoring
- Analyze reservoir performance using geological, petrophysical, and production data to optimize hydrocarbon recovery.
- Monitor reservoir pressure, fluid behavior, and production trends to identify anomalies or performance issues.
- Recommend reservoir management strategies, including well interventions and production adjustments.
Field Development Planning (FDP) & Well Engineering Support
- Provide technical input for field development planning, including well placement, drilling, and completion strategies.
- Collaborate with geo science, drilling, and production teams to integrate subsurface and surface development plans.
- Support well testing, simulation, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) initiatives to maximize field value.
Reservoir Model-ling & Simulation
- Develop and maintain static and dynamic reservoir models to forecast production and optimize field development.
- Conduct sensitivity and scenario analyses to support decision-making and risk management.
- Update models regularly based on new production, pressure, and geological data.
Reserves Evaluation & Reporting
- Perform reserves estimation, classification, and periodic updates in compliance with industry standards and regulatory guidelines.
- Provide technical input for production forecasting, annual budgets, and capital expenditure (CAPEX) planning.
- Prepare and present management reports, technical papers, and presentations on reservoir performance, reserves status, and optimization opportunities.
Technical Risk Management & Compliance
- Identify, assess, and mitigate subsurface, reservoir, and production risks associated with marginal field operations.
- Ensure compliance with internal HSE policies, regulatory requirements, and recognized industry best practices in all reservoir engineering activities.
- Support internal and external audits, inspections, and regulatory submissions relating to subsurface and reservoir operations.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in petroleum engineering, Geology, and Geophysics.
- Master’s degree in a subsurface-related discipline (Petroleum Engineering, Geo science, or Energy Studies) is highly desirable.
- Membership or affiliation with relevant professional bodies (e.g. SPE, NAPE, AAPG, NIG) is an added advantage.
- Minimum of 7–9 years’ progressive experience in reservoir engineering and subsurface activities within the oil and gas industry, with strong exposure to marginal fields and/or upstream E&P operations.
