Expert Reservoir Engineer

Petroleum Development Oman (PDO)

Initiate and conduct a wide range of integrated reservoir engineering studies to optimise oil recovery from the heterogeneous sandstone, highly fractured heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs and unconventional reservoirs.

Ensures robustness of reservoir engineering related methods and assumptions in subsurface models applied for development plans.

Conduct/manage reservoir simulation studies, particularly focused on heterogeneous fractured carbonate, unconventional tight sand/carbonate and thermal recovery of relatively heavy oil.

Evaluate waterflood development of various types of reservoirs including the assessment of the ongoing waterflood development of some of the fields.

Carry out studies using fit-for-purpose simulation models and methods for improved understanding of promising new technologies to develop heavy oil reservoirs.

Conduct/manage field development studies, focused on recovery methods of unconventional light oil sands and heavy oil carbonate reservoir.

Leads an efficient analysis of reservoir engineering data through the adoption of advanced and highly reliable software/technology and tools to predict the characteristics, behaviours of the reservoirs and production deliverability.

Identifies subsurface uncertainties and develops plans to acquire reservoir engineering related data to mitigate the associated risks.

Perform volumetric, reserves and with a sound understanding of economics assessment.

Plan the implementation of short to long term strategy to manage field lifecycle, reservoir management activities, production optimization, enhance well and reservoir integrity and manage production and subsurface data.

Carries out economic analysis of proposed new developments and workover opportunities as part of the FDP.

Work effectively within a multi-disciplinary team

Ensure knowledge transfer to younger reservoir engineers.
