Job Description

full-time
Our client is seeking an accomplished Senior Reservoir Engineer with a strong background in advanced reservoir modeling and simulation to join their highly skilled, remote-based technical team. This role is pivotal in optimizing hydrocarbon recovery from existing fields and evaluating potential new reserves. You will be responsible for developing and maintaining complex reservoir models, conducting sensitivity analyses, and forecasting production performance under various development scenarios. The ideal candidate will possess extensive experience with industry-standard reservoir simulation software and a deep understanding of reservoir characterization, fluid flow physics, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques. You will work closely with geoscientists, production engineers, and management to provide crucial insights and recommendations for field development strategies. Responsibilities include performing material balance calculations, history matching, and uncertainty assessments. You will also contribute to the evaluation of drilling opportunities and production optimization initiatives. As a remote position, exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills are essential. You must be able to clearly articulate complex technical concepts and manage your workload effectively in a distributed environment. Proactive collaboration and clear reporting are vital. This is an excellent opportunity to apply your specialized expertise to challenging reservoir engineering problems within a flexible remote work framework. You will have the chance to influence major field development decisions and contribute to the company's success. The designated location for administrative purposes is **Nakuru, Nakuru, KE**, though the role is performed entirely remotely.
Qualifications:
  • MSc or PhD in Petroleum Engineering, Reservoir Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Minimum of 8 years of hands-on experience in reservoir engineering, with a strong focus on reservoir simulation and modeling.
  • Proficiency with major reservoir simulation software packages (e.g., ECLIPSE, INTERSECT, CMG).
  • Experience in history matching, forecasting, and uncertainty analysis.
  • Solid understanding of reservoir characterization techniques and petrophysics.
  • Familiarity with EOR methods and their application.
  • Excellent technical writing and presentation skills.
  • Proven ability to work independently and as part of a remote, global team.
  • Strong analytical and quantitative skills.

Job Description

full-time
Our client, a leading international energy exploration company, is seeking an experienced Senior Reservoir Engineer for a fully remote position. This role is crucial for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery and maximizing the value of oil and gas assets through advanced reservoir characterization and simulation. You will be responsible for developing and applying sophisticated reservoir simulation models to predict reservoir performance, evaluate development strategies, and support field management decisions. Your work will involve analyzing geological and engineering data, interpreting simulation results, and making recommendations for optimal well placement, production, and injection strategies. Key responsibilities include building complex geological and flow models, performing sensitivity analyses, forecasting production, and assessing uncertainty. Experience with industry-standard reservoir simulation software (e.g., Schlumberger ECLIPSE, Halliburton KAPPA, Landmark DecisionSpace) is mandatory. Proficiency in programming languages such as Python for data analysis and scripting, and a strong understanding of fluid flow in porous media, thermodynamics, and reservoir geomechanics are essential. The ideal candidate will possess a Master's or Ph.D. in Petroleum Engineering, or a related field, with a minimum of 10 years of direct experience in reservoir engineering, including hands-on experience with dynamic reservoir simulation. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to high-impact energy projects from a remote location, collaborating with a world-class team of geoscientists and engineers. While your expertise might support operations in regions like Mombasa, Mombasa, KE , the role itself is fully remote, offering significant flexibility. We are looking for a highly analytical and results-oriented professional with exceptional problem-solving skills, strong communication abilities, and a commitment to sustainable and efficient energy resource development.
