About the role

Overview: As Advisor Geoscientist – Reservoir Modeling, you will lead the development of integrated 3D static reservoir models to inform exploration, appraisal and development decisions. You will coordinate across multidisciplinary teams, setting modeling standards and guiding uncertainty analyses. You translate seismic, well, petrophysical and structural data into robust models and development scenarios. You will mentor geoscientists and communicate risk and value to senior leadership. This role offers impact through technical leadership in a global portfolio.
Responsibilities: Build and maintain integrated 3D static reservoir models across exploration to development Integrate seismic interpretation, logs, core, petrophysics, sedimentology, stratigraphy and pressure data Develop structural frameworks, facies and petrophysical models; create saturation and fluid-contact scenarios Quantify volumes, uncertainties, dependencies, and sensitivities; design uncertainty workflows Upscale static models for dynamic simulation workflows with reservoir engineering Lead technical assurance, reviews, and mentorship across teams; communicate risks and value Support well planning, geosteering inputs, data acquisition, and post-well model updates Define scopes and QA/QC reservoir modeling studies performed by consultants and vendors
Key requirements: 20+ years of subsurface experience with hands-on 3D static reservoir modeling in exploration, appraisal or development Expert-level proficiency with Schlumberger Petrel workflows (structural frameworks, facies, porosity, upscaling, uncertainty) Strong knowledge of depositional systems, stratigraphy, structural geology, petrophysics, seismic interpretation, depth uncertainty, fluid contacts Experience integrating multidisciplinary datasets and building ensembles to quantify uncertainty Experience transferring static models into dynamic simulation workflows with reservoir engineers Ability to lead technical assurance, influence teams without direct authority, and mentor staff Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills for senior leadership communication Experience with partner or vendor model reviews and decision-support in a business context leadership clear communication mentoring Petrel Techlog ArcGIS
