JOB DESCRIPTION: SENIOR ENGINEER, RESERVOIR ENGINEERING

Location: KL Office

Contract Type: Full-time

Work Schedule: Standard office hours

KEY OBJECTIVES

- Full responsibility for reservoir engineering of assigned field(s).

- Establish technically accurate reservoir system descriptions for clastic depositional facies for all assigned sub-surface assets and projects.

- Conduct detailed technical evaluations of reserves and fluid distributions in individual reservoir systems utilizing petrophysical, geological, and seismic data.

- Define core and PVT analysis programs for dynamic reservoir properties for analytical and numerical simulation models.

- Build fully integrated reservoir simulation models using the latest geological modeling techniques and reservoir simulation numerical/analytical analysis methods.

- Develop well production and deliverability profiles for different field production scenarios using industry-standard well inflow and tubing performance analysis software.

- Construct complex simulation models; conduct reservoir simulation history matching for reserves monitoring and optimizing recovery efficiency under primary and secondary recovery mechanisms.

- Establish and maintain technical database of all reservoir properties and performance data in conjunction with development plans, history matching, and simulation runs.

- Provide management support information for the compilation of regular progress reports, project status, reserves and development option reviews.

- Train and mentor junior engineers for technical skill development.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTABILITIES
