Reservoir Geologist

 

Description:

As a Reservoir Geologist at UNCO OIL, you build the detailed geological understanding of our producing and appraisal reservoirs that drives how we develop and deplete them. You construct static geological and reservoir models — structural framework, stratigraphy, facies and petrophysical property distribution — that underpin well placement, infill drilling and reserves. Integrating core, log, seismic and production data, you characterize reservoir architecture, connectivity and heterogeneity, and you work hand-in-hand with reservoir engineers, petrophysicists and geophysicists to turn that understanding into field-development decisions. Your models and maps directly shape where and how we drill, and how much we ultimately recover. This is a hands-on, cross-discipline role at the center of how we grow value from the assets we own and operate.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and update 3D static geological and reservoir models: structural framework, stratigraphy, facies and property distribution.
  • Integrate core, well-log, seismic and production data to characterize reservoir architecture, connectivity and heterogeneity.
  • Define and justify development and infill well locations, targets and trajectories.
  • Provide geological input to volumetrics, reserves estimation, uncertainty analysis and reservoir simulation.
  • Support development geology during drilling: well-site geology, geosteering and formation evaluation.
  • Prepare technical reports and present reservoir descriptions and development recommendations to management and partners.

 

Required Qualifications

  • PhD in Geology, Geoscience, Reservoir Geology or a related discipline.
  • 10+ years of development / reservoir geology experience with an operator or consultancy.
  • Proficiency in Petrel or equivalent static-modeling and interpretation software.
  • Strong integration of geological, petrophysical, geophysical and production data into reservoir models.
  • Fluent English.

 

Preferred / Nice to Have

  • Carbonate and/or unconventional reservoir experience.
  • Experience linking static models to dynamic reservoir simulation.
  • Middle East, Central Asia or Africa basin knowledge.
