Job Description
Reservoir Studies:

• Conducts reservoir simulation studies to determine optimum methods of maximizing ultimate oil recovery and enhance individual well performance.
• Propose studies with the objectives to improve field management.
• Perform Reservoir Engineering studies related to classical analytical techniques (material balance analysis, fractional flow, decline analysis, numerical techniques) for primary depletion and secondary recovery (water/gas injection) projects.

Production/Oil Recovery Support:

• Monitors production from field, analyses all relevant data and ensures that reservoirs are being properly managed, production is optimized and recoveries are optimal.
• Develop strategies to improve field production and recovery.
• Prepares production testing proposals and provides guidelines for execution. Evaluate, interpret results and recommend optimum methods of performance monitoring.
• Prepare detailed short, medium and long-term production forecasts.

Reservoir Management:

• Challenge/screen well proposals and perform well evaluations and post mortem reviews.
• Conduct, document and present field reviews and further development proposals.
• Study and rank potential infill, recompletion and work-over targets
• Establish reservoir management strategies where they do not exist and update existing policies and procedures in line with statutory regulations.
• Manage and direct reservoir surveillance activities (MER, BHP etc.) and reservoir definition and behaviour prediction.
• Employ standard procedures and guidelines to estimate oil and gas reserves, and prepare/ document Annual Report of Producing Reservoirs (ARPR).

General Engineering:

• Implement Company’s health, safety and environmental policy, procedure and regulation as they relate to area of responsibility.
• Participate in Operational duties outside office hours.
• Participate in Wells Engineering and Drilling activities in the company.
• Carry out other tasks as delegated by the Head Subsurface

Job Position: Production Technologist
Location: Nigeria
Reports to: The Head Subsurface
Job Description

• Monitor and evaluate well, reservoir and field performance with a view to optimizing daily production and recoverable reserves through the design of well completions (particularly horizontal completions) and artificial lift methods, understanding the constraints on the wells, reservoirs and facilities
• Initiate and participate in the design and programming of well completions, in particular horizontal completions, with the aim of optimizing well inflow performance for the (mostly horizontal) liner completions
• Assist in drawing up a sand management strategy, addressing monitoring, prediction and exclusion methods
• Actively search for improvements, keeping abreast of new technology and incorporating it where applicable to improve the Company’s overall effectiveness.
• Provide Production technology input to field development plans, including well completion design, well performance prediction, optimum artificial lift method, production chemistry issues, processing facilities, HSE issues, risks and uncertainties, etc.
• Advise operating departments on the physical constraints applicable to the well / reservoir / field production (e.g. sand, water, gas production, scaling potential, corrosion potential, etc.
• Identify areas of poor performance and formulate solutions through proposals for well interventions that will improve productivity

Requirements

• Minimum of ten (10) years practical production technology experience with an operating company or specialist service company
• Degree in Engineering and Physical Sciences
• SPE or any related professional qualification will be ideal.
