Reservoir Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Evaluate Reservoir Data: Gather and analyse well tests, production and pressure data to define reservoir behavior and performance trends.
• Build Simulation Models: Use reservoir simulation tools to model fluid flow and forecast recovery to recommend optimal field plans.
• Prepare Production Forecasts: Develop short‑ and long‑term production forecasts to support planning and management decisions.
• Optimize Recovery Strategies: Suggest recovery techniques, well placements and stimulation options to enhance hydrocarbon extraction efficiency.
• Collaborate With Teams: Coordinate with geologists, drilling, and production engineers to integrate data and execution plans.
• Report Findings: Produce clear reports and technical documentation for stakeholders and field development reviews.
• Safety & Compliance: Ensure work follows industry standards, safety policies, and any local regulatory requirements.

Requirements

• Experience: 4–10 years in reservoir engineering or related upstream petroleum roles in oil & gas.
• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Petroleum Engineering or closely related discipline.
• Technical Competence: Skilled with reservoir software (e.g., Eclipse, CMG) and decline curve analysis.
• Project Controls: Able to plan tasks, manage time, and meet engineering project deadlines.
• Leadership: Strong communicator with ability to work well in multidisciplinary teams.
• Commercial Acumen: Understand economic impacts of field plans and how engineering aids business goals.
