  • Mentoring less experienced personnel
  • Working closely with other disciplines, carrying out petroleum engineering aspects of oil developments. This includes:
    • Nodal analysis to estimate well production potentials.
    • Material balance modelling.
    • Reservoir simulation modelling.
    • Reservoir fluid Pressure-Volume-Temperature (PVT) modelling.
    • Surface facility modelling.
    • Working closely with earth scientists to understand geologic uncertainties and ensure they are incorporated in reservoir models.
    • Selecting appropriate ranges of key uncertainties to achieve high confidence uncertainty ranges in forecast reservoir performance.
    • Optimizing number and type of wells and completion types.
    • Interfacing with facility and drilling engineers to evaluate alternative facility and well configurations.
    • The use of economic models to estimate economic outcomes.
  • Working with economic analyst to rank well drilling opportunities to ensure that the most profitable opportunities are drilled earliest when practical.
  • Working with engineers working on oil assets to coordinate development of oil rims and gas caps in reservoirs with thin oil rims and large gas caps.
  • Visiting field locations to become familiar with oil production and gas processing assets, and for other reasons related to responsibilities.
  • Participating in formulating conceptual development plans of exploration opportunities, estimating the corresponding investment and production potential, and the resulting economic value.
  • Preparing and updating Field Development Plans and participate in securing Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) approval.
  • Meeting with officials of NUPRC as required to obtain well intervention, well drilling and project approvals. Provide information and clarity on projects, or any other issues that may arise.
  • Meeting with personnel of NNPC E&P Limited (NEPL) – our JV partners - as required to reach alignment on projects, or any other issues that may arise.
  • Participating in the computation of flare numbers to ensure that they are accurate. Recommend the installation of meters where required.
