Job Description

full-time
Our client, a prominent player in the Oil & Gas industry, is seeking an experienced Senior Reservoir Engineer for a fully remote role focused on technical analysis and reservoir management. The ideal candidate will possess extensive knowledge of reservoir characterization, simulation, and production optimization techniques. You will be responsible for evaluating hydrocarbon reserves, forecasting production, and recommending strategies to maximize recovery from oil and gas assets. This position requires advanced analytical skills, proficiency in reservoir simulation software, and the ability to interpret complex geological and engineering data to drive informed decision-making. Collaboration with exploration, production, and management teams will be conducted primarily through digital platforms.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Conducting detailed reservoir characterization using geological, geophysical, and engineering data.
  • Performing reservoir simulation studies to model fluid flow and predict reservoir performance.
  • Estimating and evaluating hydrocarbon reserves and resources.
  • Forecasting production profiles and developing field development plans.
  • Recommending optimal strategies for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and production optimization.
  • Analyzing well performance and identifying opportunities for intervention.
  • Collaborating with geoscientists, production engineers, and drilling engineers.
  • Preparing technical reports, presentations, and recommendations for management.
  • Staying abreast of new technologies and methodologies in reservoir engineering.
  • Ensuring compliance with industry best practices and regulatory requirements.
  • Mentoring junior reservoir engineers.

The successful candidate will hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Petroleum Engineering or a closely related field, with a minimum of 7 years of experience in reservoir engineering within the upstream Oil & Gas sector. Proven experience with major reservoir simulation software packages (e.g., Eclipse, CMG, Petrel RE) is mandatory. Strong understanding of reservoir physics, fluid properties, and formation evaluation techniques is essential. Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills are required. The ability to work independently and manage complex projects remotely is critical. Our client operates in the Oil & Gas sector in Nakuru, Nakuru, KE , and this position is open to candidates worldwide, provided they meet the technical qualifications for this remote role.
