Geologist

 Job Description:

Connect Energy partners with a marine technology company to look for a GEOLOGIST for their upcoming project in Malaysia.

Responsibilities:

  • Provide geologic assistance and advise the subsurface team
  • Build storage sites ranking
  • Understanding of geological formations can be used to store CO2. 
  • Identification of potential reservoir and seal identified, evaluated and characterized for their CO2 storage.
  • Capable to map potential storage sites and calculate the storage capacity
  • Prepare geological development of basin (age, formation groups and aquifer), structural framework as well as geological description for each formation.
  • Determine storage potential in saline aquifers, abandoned / depleted oil and gas fields as well as producing fields
  • Build Geological understanding of the basin
  • Knowledge of geologic principles and techniques as per Storage Development Plan (SDP)
  • To interpret various log data, generate geologic cross section
  • To integrate of geologic data into subsurface static and dynamic models including seal, fault, and overburden analysis
  • To have knowledge of static models to work with geo-modeler to make adjustment to static and dynamic models
  • To perform broad geologic knowledge for inter disciplinary integration
  • Generate workflow and characterization of aquifers and structures in terms of reservoir quality, sealing quality, other lead risk, data coverage
  • Assess the suitability of the geological formations for CO2 storage to identify in a systematic way which area are prospective in terms of large scale storage for CO2.
  • Each potential reservoir and seal identified, evaluated and characterized for their CO2 storage
  • Map potential storage sites, and calculate the storage
  • Prepare geological development of Sarawak, structural framework as well as geological description for each formation
  • Evaluate aquifers' reservoir quality and presence of relevant sealing formation
  • Determine which area that may have relevant storage potential in terms of depth, capacity, injectivity
  • Prepare structural maps and thickness maps of the aquifers to calculate pore volumes
  • Determine storage potential in saline aquifers, abandoned / depleted oil and gas fields as well as producing fields
