Reservoir Engineer

As a Reservoir Engineer, you will play a crucial role in optimizing the production and recovery of hydrocarbon resources from unconventional shale plays. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the growth and success of our organization while working with cutting-edge technology and collaborating with a talented group of professionals.

Target Responsibilities:

• Manage the well life cycle from inception through TIL. Coordinate with land, permitting, construction, midstream, drilling, completions, marketing, and production activities to promote efficiency and maximize NAV.
• Conduct comprehensive reservoir and economic analysis and modeling to optimize well design to maximize production and recovery from unconventional shale plays.
• Perform decline curve analysis, rate transient analysis, pressure transient analysis, and other reservoir engineering techniques to evaluate well performance and make data-driven recommendations.
• Analyze the effects of pressure dependent permeability on ultimate recovery; Optimize drawdown strategy based on pricing environment.
• Analyze DFIT data to identify pressure dependent permeability signatures, existence of natural fractures, half-length estimates compared to RTA, reservoir pressure verification.
• Identify early time flow regimes for more accurate preliminary EUR estimates.
• Work with broader team using available public/private data to determine land acquisition targets for future development.
• Work with Corporate Reserves to prepare and present SEC Year End Reserves estimates to auditors and upper management
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to integrate geologic, geophysical, and petrophysical data into reservoir models.
• Utilize data analytics platforms, such as Spotfire, to analyze large datasets and identify trends, correlations, and opportunities for improvement in well performance.
• Develop and update reservoir models to support production forecasting and reserve estimation.
• Work closely with field operations teams to optimize well completions and production strategies.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and geoscientists.
• Stay up to date with industry advancements, best practices, and emerging technologies relevant to reservoir engineering.

Minimum Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in petroleum engineering or a related field. Advanced degree preferred.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in reservoir engineering with a focus on unconventional shale plays.
• Software Proficiency in Aries, Client Harmony, Enersight, and other relevant engineering software.
• Strong knowledge of reservoir characterization, production forecasting, and reserve estimation techniques.
• Experience with data analytics platforms like Spotfire for data analysis and visualization.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office products, including Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to make sound engineering decisions based on data.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams.
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects and prioritize tasks in a fast-paced environment.
