Responsibilities:

As a subject matter expert, you will;

• Use/maintain geological models to conduct and document reservoir characterization work-flows via generating cross sections from well logs, maps, cores, cross plots, histograms, summary tables, and written reports for different stratigraphic intervals to recommend placement of wells and supplementary processes to enhance production.
• Evaluate current practices and identify opportunities for innovative improvements using data science applications to predict reservoir quality.
• Actively participate in the well planning process to optimize well locations using a variety of geological and geophysical data.
• Monitor and trac wells, performing well evaluations during and post frac jobs, generating and/or updating maps for structural, stratigraphic, fluid limits in light of new drilling and flowback information.
• Provide geological input into generation of appraisal and development plans for resource assessment and development optimization.
• Work closely with drilling, production and reservoir engineering teams and champion operational activities from planning to execution.
• Effectively communicate through presentations to technical peers and management teams to enhance in-house knowledge.
• Provide support, recommendations and advise in the area of expertise.
• Mentor and develop newly hired and young professionals.

Requirements:
