Senior Reservoir Engineer

Role Purpose

The Senior Reservoir Engineer (SRE) is responsible for developing and maintaining reservoir depletion plans, reserves management and maturation. The RE works in a multidisciplinary team with Geoscientists, Production Engineers and Petroleum Economists to ensure efficient reservoir management and compliant reporting.

Key Accountabilities

HSSE

The Reservoir Engineer will be expected to gain early familiarisation with Mubadala HSSE policy and ensure that all work is carried out in compliance with same.

Reporting, Stakeholder Engagement & Management

· Provide updates to Management on production updates, well status and key Reservoir Performance Indicators.

· Provide Reservoir Engineering presentations and reports as required including for External Engagements, including TCMs, MCMs, Petronas Reports (eg, IOM, ARPR, WPB).

Provide Reservoir Engineering presentations and reports as required including for Internal Engagements, including Subsurface Workshops, TeComs, and Project Gate Reviews.

Production Forecasting and Reserves Reporting

· Use analytical and/or numerical simulation techniques to derive production forecasts to support Projects, Internal Reserves Submissions and Business Planning, WPB and ARPR Submissions.

· Provide technical recommendations on development well count, scope and timing for new projects.

· Liaise with commercial/economics team in delivering field economics analysis as required.

· Liaise with facilities teams for all CAPEX/OPEX inputs as required.

· Prepare technical documentation and presentations as required to meet reporting requirements.

Act as responsible party for submission of all corporate and Petronas reports(i.e., IOM, WPB, ARPR, BP).

Reservoir Management Plan

· Interpret field data including production, pressure and sample data to advise on additional data gathering techniques, scope and timing.

· Design, implement and interpret well tests, including MRTs and planned PBUs.

· Design and implement well sampling plans.

· Design and implement well intervention plans, including downhole pressure surveys, production and saturation logs.

· Develop the Reservoir Management Plan to maximise useful data gathering and interpretation to support future development decisions.

· Support Digitalisation and Well/Reservoir Surveillance Automation Initiatives.
