The Geologist reports directly to the Manager, Geology. The Geologist performs geological studies and 3D geological modelling throughout the exploration and production cycle. This integrates various subsurface and production data to generate integrated geological models of the subsurface for the optimal placement of exploration, appraisal, and development wells. Strong geological modelling skills are a pre-requisite for this position to be able to work effectively with an integrated multi-disciplinary technical team.The overall goal is to maximize economic recovery and present value by managing subsurface projects, reserves, production forecasts, costs, and exploration. KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

  • Geological assessment and studies of new ventures, exploration, and mature field opportunities.
  • Build and maintain 3D geocellular static models that incorporate various subsurface & production data to have models that best represent the reservoir architecture, in-place hydrocarbon volumes and most current production behavior.
  • Maintain field-scale well correlations that clearly define reservoir flow units and their connectivity and continuity across the field for use in mapping, geological modelling and the overall understanding of producing reservoirs.
  • Incorporate all subsurface data (e.g., sedimentological & stratigraphic interpretations, biostratigraphic data, structural data, petrophysical data, pressure & temperature data, and seismic data, laboratory measurements) into the building of reservoir models.
  • Perform pre-drill subsurface risk assessment and volumetrics. Generate ranked leads and prospects portfolio for drilling candidates.
  • Effectively work in an integrated team composed of geoscientists, petrophysicists, reservoir engineers & production technologist.
  • Prepare well proposals and propose formation evaluation programs in support of drilling to meet reservoir characterization requirements.
  • Provide geological input to support drilling operations, including real-time monitoring. Work closely with Operations and Wellsite Geologist during pre-drill, execution, and post-drill stages.
  • Provide input to Field Development Plans (FDPs) for development opportunities.
  • Undertake accurate deterministic and probabilistic volumetric evaluations for reserves assessment and audits.
  • Follow through geological laboratory analyses of rock and fluid samples in accordance with or exceeding industry standards and requirements.
  • Manage stakeholder expectations and ensure all correspondence, presentation materials, reports, and documentation meet the highest technical standards and are submitted promptly.
  • Participate in data rooms, compile, and analyze geoscience subsurface & engineering data to provide technical recommendations of opportunities on offer.

REQUIREMENTS AND QUALIFICATIONS

  • Possess a bachelor’s degree in Geology, Geoscience or Earth Sciences or equivalent qualification from recognized universities.
  • Minimum of 5 years’ experience in the geoscience and petroleum engineering disciplines in the oil and gas industry, preferably with an operator.
  • Essential experience in geological interpretation and modelling methodologies.
  • Experienced in constructing 3D geocellular static reservoir models using Petrel or TNav software.
  • Experienced in the use of geostatistics and uncertainty quantification/analysis and the preparation of volumetric reports used for hydrocarbon resources estimation.
  • Experienced of working in clastic depositional systems, with the ability to integrate other subsurface data, including seismic data into the geological model. Knowledge of carbonate systems is an added advantage.
  • Competent in geological depositional systems, with experience in Malay Basin or Sabah geological settings.
  • Familiar with geophysical data, offshore drilling operations including well site duties, logging and log analysis and interpretation.
  • Familiar with technical review process. Able to formulate Field Development Plan (FDP), Full Field Review (FFR) or similar processes.
  • Able to work effectively in an integrated multi-disciplinary team environment with diverse cultures and experiences.
  • Good communication, interpersonal and presentation skills.
  • Able to work independently with minimal supervision.
