Description
Job Summary
- The senior Petro physicist provides top quality petrophysical interpretation skills for formation evaluation in well operations and field evaluation through successful field development.
- The individual would support Enageed’s asset evaluation and management across operated and non-operated assets alongside working with petrophysical/G&G softwares to conduct petrophysical evaluations across different assets owned by company.
Responsibilities
- Support Enageed Drilling & Completions operations and rig safety.
- Design optimum logging programs, considering the objective formations, fluid characteristics, and company budget.
- Supervise computer analysis of new and old wells to obtain maximum reconciliation of log data with cores, drill stem tests, and geological sample descriptions.
- Analyze dip meter, production, and fracture identification logs.
- Analyze logs, by hand or by programmable calculator, when computer analysis is impossible or inappropriate.
- Co-ordinate log analysis for integration into reservoir evaluations, reservoir model studies, or geophysical prospects.
- Undertake special research or in-depth studies of problems, such as over-pressure, variable log evaluation parameters, or exotic minerals.
- Prepare and present log evaluation courses for general or detailed study by oil company personnel.
- Prepare detailed seismic models from well logs in conjunction with stratigraphic or structural assumptions and create synthetic seismograms for each model using a computerized system.
- Attend well completion, drilling location, partner, and progress meetings.
- Supervise logistics of logging, coring, testing, and lab operations.
- Edit log data (re-scale, depth shift, point edit).
- Prepare porosity and hydrocarbon volume accumulations with or without cut offs – detailed or summary listings
- Provide many different log analysis methods, with user defined options, the choices depending on data quality and formation characteristics
- Create reservoir summaries sorted by zone, project and cut off levels
- Prepare synthetic seismograms on original or modelled data, with variable wavelet type and frequency, and create synthetic seismic section.
- Support property modelling for static model generation. Knowledge/Skills
- Knowledge of different petrophysics and formation evaluation software.
- Workstation-based petrophysical interpretation on both wells and fields basis.
- Well-rounded geoscientist experienced in all aspects of play-based evaluation concepts and methods.
- Ability to rapidly analyze and identify critical success factors and risk elements, then to focus on these to efficiently develop the opportunity.
- Well correlation analyses and sequence stratigraphy knowledge.
- Strong inter-personal skills: coaching, mentorship, team play
- Self starter with a lot of energy/initiative. Accurate and reliable worker with high degree of achievement drive, good presentation and communication skills.
Qualifications
