Senior Geologist

Job Purpose

Senior Geologist participates in correlating various kinds of technical data by coordinating with other subsurface discipline (geophysicists and reservoir engineers) with objectives to create maps and models to analyse reservoir geological distributions characteristics of assigned areas as well as prepare and execute delineation/ development drilling activities with drilling engineers for PTTEP ED.

Key Accountabilities

• Ensure geological and petroleum system study integration to get best of resource evaluation and delineation, de-velopment well and platform locations.
• Provide geological and subsurface uncertainty input to field development plan in coordination with reservoir engi-neer and other related parties.
• Evaluate and integrate the data of subsurface (logs, cores, seismic), reservoir and production to perform reservoir characterization analysis and resources assessment to identify new development and infill opportunities in mature fields and support production optimization.
• Evaluate horizontal well opportunity by detailed reservoir analysis e.g. tank correlation, reservoir pressure & con-nectivity, sand mapping, reservoir characterization, HCIP estimation & economic analysis, Horizontal well planning & targeting, pre-job modelling.
• Execute horizontal well operations including preparation phase, drilling operations monitoring, and post-drilled evaluation / HCIP & reserves booking.
• Perform annual resources and reserve assessment.
• Prepare and execute delineation/ development drilling activities including preparation of delineation, development work program, well proposal, monitoring drilling operations, and post well evaluation to be in line with studies and programs.
• QA/QC geological technical works and perform as leadership role for oil development team.
