Job Description
Our client, a respected entity within the Oil & Gas exploration sector, is seeking an experienced and highly analytical Lead Reservoir Engineer to join their exclusive remote technical team. This role is crucial for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery from existing and new reservoirs, ensuring efficient and sustainable production operations. You will be responsible for conducting in-depth reservoir characterization, performing complex performance analysis, and developing integrated reservoir management strategies. Your expertise will guide field development planning, production optimization, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) initiatives. Key responsibilities include building and calibrating reservoir simulation models, forecasting production, evaluating economic viability of development options, and recommending optimal well placement and completion strategies. As a remote professional, you will collaborate closely with geoscientists, production engineers, and management teams using advanced project management and collaboration platforms. We are looking for a candidate with a robust understanding of reservoir engineering principles, fluid flow in porous media, and reservoir simulation techniques. A proven track record in managing complex reservoir engineering projects and delivering measurable results is essential. A Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field is required. A Master's or PhD in Reservoir Engineering is highly desirable. A minimum of eight years of progressive experience in reservoir engineering within the Oil & Gas industry, with at least three years in a lead or senior capacity, is mandatory. Proficiency in industry-standard reservoir simulation software (e.g., Schlumberger ECLIPSE, Landmark tNavigator) and data analysis tools is critical. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills are necessary to effectively present complex technical findings to diverse audiences. This is an exceptional opportunity to apply your specialized expertise to challenging reservoir management problems, contributing to the success of critical energy projects, all within a flexible remote work environment. This role is based in Kitale, KE , but will be performed entirely remotely.
