Job Description
Responsibilities include developing and executing detailed reservoir simulation studies to model fluid flow, predict future production, and assess the impact of various development scenarios. You will perform material balance calculations, decline curve analysis, and utilize advanced statistical methods to estimate reserves and resources. The engineer will be responsible for identifying and evaluating opportunities for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and recommending appropriate technologies and strategies. Collaborating closely with geoscientists, production engineers, and drilling engineers through virtual channels to integrate geological models and operational data into reservoir assessments will be crucial. You will also be involved in preparing technical reports, presentations, and recommendations for field development plans, reserve bookings, and investment decisions. Monitoring reservoir performance, analyzing production data, and recommending adjustments to optimize recovery rates and minimize operational risks will be a regular duty. Staying abreast of the latest advancements in reservoir engineering techniques, simulation software, and data analytics within the Oil & Gas industry will be essential. This role requires a rigorous approach to data analysis and a forward-thinking perspective on reservoir management.
The ideal candidate will possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related discipline. A minimum of 8-10 years of hands-on experience in reservoir engineering, with a strong background in reservoir simulation and performance analysis, is required. Proven success in managing reservoir studies for diverse field types and demonstrating significant contributions to production optimization or reserve estimation is essential. Deep expertise in reservoir simulation software (e.g., ECLIPSE, INTERSECT, CMG) and associated pre/post-processing tools is mandatory. Strong understanding of petrophysics, geology, and production engineering principles is crucial. Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and quantitative skills are critical. Outstanding communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills are necessary for effective virtual collaboration with international teams. The ability to manage projects independently, prioritize tasks effectively, and work with minimal supervision in a remote environment is paramount. This is an exceptional opportunity for a seasoned reservoir engineer to make a significant impact on global energy production from a fully remote position.
