Senior Reservoir Engineering Advisor – E&P Technology Focus

CLIENT:

Reputable international client looking to expand exploitation efforts in the US and internationally. This role will focus within the T&E (Technology & Excellence) team. This is a technology focused in-house consulting business unit to work with the industries highest talent on the forefront of cutting edge unconventional technology. Opportunity to work on a plethora of different assets within an integrated team of experts. Very stable company offering long term opportunities to work internationally and to work on multiple assets of your choice. Collaborative award winning environment with extremely competitive compensation packages. H1B, TN Visas can be transferred.

POSITION SUMMARY:

Opportunity to work within the Technology & Excellence (T&E) Unconventional Technology Team. Primarily focused on characterizing tight oil, shale gas, and liquid-rich shale reservoirs, and assisting the asset teams with incorporation of these data into reservoir characterization and modeling tools. The candidate is required to work with geoscientists, petrophysicists, geomechanic specialists, geochemists, and production and reservoir engineers to ensure that estimates of hydrocarbon-in-place and performance forecasts include all parameters and considerations related to unconventional reservoirs. Part of the role will be to design appropriate field core and fluid capture and handling procedures and ensure fit-for-purpose laboratory testing programs for core and fluid samples. This will require a high level of interaction with vendors and research institutes offering laboratory analyses for such rock samples.

The candidate is a seasoned professional with a track record of delivering fit-for-purpose rock and fluid characterizations in support of estimating hydrocarbon-in-place, production rates, and recovery volumes for unconventional and conventional reservoirs. This will require frequent coordination with the geoscientists, petrophysicists, geomechanics, geochemists, and reservoir and completion engineers working in the Unconventional Technology team and the unconventional reservoir asset teams in Exploration, Developments, and Production.

A chief role will be to improve the understanding of rock and fluid properties and how they relate to flow in nano-Darcy rocks. The candidate will be required to interact with scientists in professional societies, industry, and academia to ensure that research efforts are aimed at developing technologies that can be leveraged to positive effect in assets. As part of this technology monitoring, the candidate must also serve as a champion for testing, evaluating, and sharing best practices and value-improving-practices with unconventional reservoir asset teams.

ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Define coring and core analysis programs for new wells being drilled in unconventional reservoirs and assist in planning.

- Define fluid sampling and analysis program for new wells being drilled in unconventional reservoirs and assist in planning.
