The Asset Business Delivery Reservoir Engineer is responsible and accountable for delivering technical support to the business to enable asset growth through brownfield and post-initial investment decision greenfield opportunities. The successful candidate should have broad general experience delivering dynamic subsurface characterization, including well and surveillance data integration, simulation model construction, production forecasting, resource maturation, and technology deployment. 

Role will maintain close collaboration with peers on asset teams, Asset Business Delivery and Center of Excellence verticals within Subsurface and Capital Projects teams to support reservoir characterization, development planning, and execution planning.

About the position:

The Asset Geologist supports development planning, reservoir characterization, subsurface uncertainty reduction, and value optimization for shale and tight assets. This role develops integrated geologic interpretations and decision-support products by combining geological, geophysical, petrophysical, engineering, production, and external benchmark data.

The successful candidate will work closely with global asset teams and technical specialists to support field development decisions, improve well performance, identify development opportunities, and improve understanding of subsurface risk and uncertainty. The role is expected to influence development decisions and business outcomes through direct collaboration with global asset teams and technical specialists.
This role provides opportunities to apply digital technologies, analytics, and workflow improvements that accelerate technical decision making and business value delivery.

Key responsibilities:

• Develop integrated geologic frameworks, reservoir characterization studies, maps, and interpretation products that support field development planning and reservoir management.
• Integrate geological, geophysical, petrophysical, production, completion, and engineering datasets to improve understanding of reservoir performance and development opportunities.
• Support well planning activities, including landing target recommendations, spacing evaluations, development sequencing, and risk mitigation.
• Conduct uncertainty assessments and recommend surveillance, appraisal, and data acquisition programs that improve decision quality.
• Evaluate well performance trends and integrate geologic learnings into development recommendations and forecasting workflows.
• Perform competitor benchmarking and external analog evaluations to identify value-creation opportunities and improve development planning assumptions.
• Collaborate with reservoir engineers, production engineers, geophysicists, petrophysicists, drilling and completions teams, commercial teams, and operations partners.
• Deliver technical recommendations that clearly communicate assumptions, risks, opportunities, and business impacts.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of subsurface workflows through digital tools, analytics, automation, and standardization efforts.
• Share technical knowledge and support capability building across the Earth Science community.

About you:

 

We know our greatest resource is the ingenuity, creativity and innovation of our people. Applications from motivated, talented individuals with a keen interest in the energy industry are encouraged. 

 

To be considered for this role, applicants should have:

Required Qualifications:

• Master's degree or higher in geology, geophysics, geological engineering, or a related earth science discipline.
• 5-15 years of experience in reservoir characterization, development geology, integrated interpretation, or field development planning.
• Experience integrating seismic, well logs, petrophysical data, production information, and engineering data into development recommendations.
• Working knowledge of subsurface interpretation and modeling platforms such as Petrel or similar software.
• Strong technical foundation in stratigraphy, sedimentology, structural geology, basin analysis, reservoir quality evaluation, or related disciplines.
• Demonstrated ability to frame uncertainty, evaluate risks, and influence technical decisions.
• Strong analytical, communication, and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting shale and tight developments.
• Advanced experience with subsurface interpretation and modeling workflows.
• Experience with competitor benchmarking and development optimization studies.
• Familiarity with data visualization, automation, analytics, scripting, or digital workflow development.
• Experience supporting integrated asset development planning and business decision making.
• Experience working with global asset teams, technical centers, or distributed delivery teams.

Selection Criteria 1

• Demonstrated technical depth in reservoir characterization, geologic framework mapping, integrated interpretation, and development geology.
• Ability to connect geologic interpretation to production performance, development planning, risk mitigation, and economic outcomes.
• Strong judgment in uncertainty framing, data acquisition recommendations, and risk-based decision support.
• Ability to influence cross-functional development decisions through clear technical logic and practical recommendations.
• Strong collaboration across geology, geophysics, petrophysics, reservoir engineering, production engineering, drilling and completions, operations, and commercial teams.
• Demonstrated ownership, sound judgment, and ability to deliver high-quality subsurface products under business timelines.
