Geophysicist, Swamp Assets

Qualification & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Geology, Geosciences, Earth Sciences, or a related field.
  
• Minimum of 5 years’ upstream oil and gas experience in exploration and field development, with proven competency in sedimentological and structural interpretation, prospect maturation, and well planning in land and swamp terrains.
  

Subsurface Interpretation and Integration

• Interpret 2D/3D seismic data using Petrel, DSG, and OpenWorks to define structural and stratigraphic frameworks, ensuring drilling targets are accurately positioned to avoid drilling dry wells.
  
• Integrate seismic attributes with well logs, core, and production data to enhance reservoir characterization, reducing subsurface uncertainty so that development plans remain technically reliable and economically viable.
  
• Map reservoir units, horizons, and fault networks to support high-quality static models and volumetric assessments, ensuring reserves estimation remains realistic so that regulatory and investment decisions are not compromised.
  

Prospect Maturation and Opportunity Delivery

• Identify, evaluate, and rank leads and prospects using GeoX, Petrel, and DSG, ensuring systematic risking and volumetric assessment so that only sound opportunities progress to drilling.
  
• Contribute to a dynamic prospect inventory aligned with asset strategy.
  
• Present technical evaluations to internal leadership and JV committees, ensuring evidence–based endorsements so that exploration capital is deployed responsibly.
  

Operational and Well Planning Support

• Prepare well planning analysis to identify geological targets and subsurface risks, ensuring proper well design so that operational incidents, delays, and compliance issues are prevented.
  
• Prepare geo-prognosis, drilling instructions, and geosteering inputs to optimize reservoir entry so that well placement enhances productivity and reduces rework or sidetrack costs.
  
• Provide real-time geophysical support during drilling, ensuring operational decisions adjust to actual subsurface conditions so that non-productive time and safety risks are minimized.
  
• Conduct post-well evaluations to update models and lessons learned, ensuring continuous improvement so that future wells achieve higher success rates and lower uncertainty.
  

Self Leadership and Technical Mentoring

• Guide junior geoscientists and interns through project reviews and daily technical oversight, ensuring outputs meet professional standards so that subsurface evaluations remain accurate and dependable.
  
• Contribute to knowledge-sharing sessions and promote best practices, maintaining consistency in technical workflows so that deliverables maintain high quality across the team.
  
• Adhere to clear technical expectations and align team objectives with asset priorities so that effort is focused on high-impact exploration and development tasks.
