SENIOR WELLSITE GEOLOGIST

Job Description:

Interpret and integrate geological data and provide well-site geological support for drilling wells in CLIENToil fields. This includes delivering optimized horizontal well bore placement, final well reports, updated horizontal well cross-sections, maps and formation evaluation logs for recent and previously drilled wells. Provide geological support for interdisciplinary reservoir study and field development plans. Develop and mentor less experience staff. The wellsite geologist is part of an integrated team of geoscientists, engineers, and technicians striving to maximize economic recovery from various reservoirs.

Required qualifications, experience and expertise:

1. B.Sc. is required in petroleum engineering or geosciences with minimum 15 years work experience as a petroleum/ operations geologist, out of which sever minimum (7) years work experience as a well-site geologist working to position (geo-steer) horizontal wells into targeted zones of multi-layered carbonate reservoirs.
2. Demonstrated experience with mud logging; cuttings description; real-time image logs; and correlating them to determine lithology and well path.
3. Demonstrated experience with directional drilling, well planning, depth control measurements; and understanding of BHAs (Bottom Hole Assembly).
4. Demonstrated experience of making recommendations on well path and target interval correction/ revision to meet well objectives.
5. experience in Geo-steer, Horizontal wells and using advance LWD tools.
6. Experience with Core handling and oversee core preservation onsite.
7. Understanding of the application of sequence stratigraphic concepts and methods.
8. Have a fundamental knowledge in aspects of surface seismic acquisition and processing.

Preferable experience and expertise:

1. Working knowledge in carbonate reservoirs.
2. Experience of working in integrated asset team environment.
3. Experience in applying structural geology concepts and methods to assess compartmentalization/communication.
4. Experience of having worked with geologic models to incorporate maps and their interpretations into 3D geologic models
5. Experience in working with CLIENT standard WellSite geologist software PC-based software for generating and updating cross-sections during well monitoring. Geo-modeling/ Geo-mapping: Petrel, Zmap / RMS / Petra. Well log correlation: Stratworks / Openworks/ Gravitas Petrophysics: Geoframe / Elan / IP. Formation evaluation, LWD and MWD.
6. The ability to evaluate complex information and make decisions at any hour, day or night Experience with physical and digital geologic database management Operational experience with horizontal well planning, geo-steering, and construction International experience dealing with host country technical authorities Excellent communication skills ( verbal and written)
