St James’s, London

OMV, one of Austria’s largest businesses, is an integrated energy group. In E&P we have global interests with operations in Central & Eastern Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, the Caspian region, Australasia, and North-West Europe (including the UK). We have oil and gas reserves of approximately 1.12 billion boe and our worldwide daily production amounts to more than 300,000 boe/d.

OMV has been a UK upstream player for over 20 years. Our focus area is the WOS and the Atlantic Margin, where we have major asset investments in the exploration, appraisal and development phases. We have key development projects underway including the Rosebank project and we are engaged in a $4 billion redevelopment of the producing Schiehallion asset, which should prolong field life to 2035 and beyond. In the past few weeks we have concluded a landmark deal with Statoil valued at $2.65 billion, involving multiple assets in the UK and Norway and leading to increases in our stakes in Rosebank and Schiehallion.

We are looking to recruit a Development Geologist for our multi-disciplined appraisal/development team. You will be technically responsible for the geological evaluation of our operated and non-operated licences and required to build focused static models in Petrel. You will be expected to attend and contribute to TCM’s and also assist in the assessment of Farm-ins and new ventures.

We offer an excellent salary and benefits package. However, most of all, we are offering the chance to join our business at a time of significant and assured growth, where you will influence our future activities and strategy as the UK business develops.
