Overview

Develop and update 3D geological models, integrate geological data, assess uncertainties, and provide technical recommendations.

Scope of work

The Senior Geologist will be responsible for developing, maintaining, and updating three-dimensional geological models. They will interpret and integrate well, seismic, stratigraphic, and structural geological data to support reservoir characterisation and development activities.

The role includes performing structural framework, stratigraphic correlation, facies distribution, and property-modelling work, as well as assessing geological uncertainties and their impact on subsurface outcomes.

The individual will integrate geological findings with geophysical, petrophysical, and reservoir-engineering studies, prepare geological maps, cross-sections, technical reports, and presentation materials, and conduct quality checks on geological data and models.

Participation in multidisciplinary technical reviews and workshops, providing technical recommendations to support exploration, appraisal, field-development, and operational decisions, and ensuring compliance with technical standards and project requirements are also key responsibilities.
