SR. PETROPHYSICIST

Responsible to plan, coordinate, supervise logging operations both open and cased hole logs for QatarEnergy operated offshore Idd El-Shargi field. Produce cost effective and comprehensive data acquisition plan for on-going drilling, workover operation as well as reservoir surveillance rigless activities. Provide quick petrophysical analysis for appropriate completion strategy during drilling operation and generate post-operation detail petrophysical interpretation and report to reservoir management team. Update and support Idd El-Shargi Studies team regularly and as required. Provide petrophysical input into integrated reservoir/field development studies for subsurface model building and updating. Ensure timely high data quality delivery from service providers for corporate archive. Being an active and highly supportive member of interdisciplinary reservoir management team.

Required Experience and Skills:

Experience & Skills

• Minimum 10 years of work experience in the oil and gas industry with 6 years’ experience doing a combination of petrophysical studies and operations. Experience with a focus on acquiring, evaluating, and interpreting petrophysical data. This includes advanced logging techniques and the ability to define hydrocarbon contacts and assess reservoir potential accurately.
• Must have a thorough understanding of open hole (both wireline and MWD/LWD), cased hole and production logging tools. Must be able to evaluate and interpret image logs.
• Enhance reservoir characterization through the integration of various data sets, including petrophysical, geological, and dynamic data to reduce uncertainties in reservoir simulations.
• Strong competency in quality control of petrophysical data, ensuring reliability and accuracy in routine and complex log analysis.
• Experience in deploying new petrophysical technologies and methodologies to optimize field development and asset value.
• Strong teamwork skills. Experience working in a multicultural environment.
• Effectively communicate with peers, less experienced staff, field staff, and management.

Desirable

• Ability to guide and improve the processes related to petrophysical data acquisition and interpretation, ensuring the application of industry best practices and the incorporation of innovative approaches to subsurface characterization.
