Sr. Reservoir Engineer - Uinta Asset Development

About This Role

Optimize development plans for a newly acquired Utah asset, providing detailed technical and economic analysis to increase asset value. This role focuses on continual improvement through reservoir studies and integration of learnings.

Responsibilities

• Develop correlations between geological and completion variables and well performance
• Integrate learnings to increase asset value for each drilling cycle
• Evaluate oil and gas reserves for all cases at mid-year and year-end
• Initiate reservoir studies of existing assets to determine completion and spacing improvements
• Incorporate production analysis into workflow for well evaluation and forecasting
• Analyze assets with a holistic tool kit including rate or pressure transient analysis, volumetrics, analytical or numerical modeling, and decline curve analysis
• Prepare and update asset business plans and budgets
• Coordinate the creation of AFEs to execute development plans
• Provide estimations of resource volumes and recoverable hydrocarbons using probabilistic and deterministic volumetrics, EURs, and recovery factors

Requirements

• 5+ years of reservoir engineering experience
• Strong reservoir engineering background
• Familiarity with geological, petrophysical and geochemical properties for unconventional plays
• Working knowledge of different completion types, designs and fluid systems
• Proficient in Microsoft Office (including Excel)
• Proficient in Spotfire
• Proficient in Aries or other economic evaluation software
• Command of fundamental reservoir engineering disciplines including decline curve analysis (DCA), rate transient analysis (RTA), volumetrics, recoveries, fluid behavior, simple analytical history matching, and flow regime identification
• Understanding of Pressure-Temperatures phase diagrams
• Understanding of probabilistic and deterministic methods
• Understanding principles of flow in porous media including capillary pressure, Darcy's law, and relative permeability
• Familiarity with core analysis and petro-physical evaluations
• Knowledge/experience relating to geochemistry, operations, geological interpretation, well data integration, petrophysics and seismic attributes

Qualifications

• B.S. degree in Engineering
• 5-12 years of reservoir engineering experience

Nice to Have

• Experience with simulation for development planning
