Reservoir Simulation Engineer

Position Description:

Reservoir Simulation Engineer to be responsible for the maximization of reserves and the optimization of the development well locations for deepwater field developments in the South China Sea. In this role you will be responsible for carrying out accurate reservoir simulation and synthesis for the field(s) in association with other Reservoir Engineers and Geoscientists, and will provide reservoir engineering input to the team as required.

The position will be Calgary based but candidates must be willing to re-locate to SE Asia if required

Specific responsibilities include:

• Develop 3D reservoir simulation models that accurately reflect all the available geological and reservoir engineering data, and provide reservoir depletion plans

• Assist in the planning and execution of depletion/drilling strategies within a team environment

• Help define and optimize the reservoir management strategy, development well locations and well design and production profiles

• Identify risks and risk mitigation strategies/actions for each reservoir, including evaluation of the reservoir risks and uncertainties associated with development wells and production facilities

• Define reservoir evaluation programs and participate in the follow up analysis of well results and integration of well results

• Prepare and present reservoir engineering information to management, partners and other stakeholders

• Assist in the preparation of regulatory applications/documents to the People's Republic of China and interface with partners.

• Keep informed of technical advancements in the field of reservoir modelling
