Geoscientist

Job Req ID: 6102- Description:

- **Aramco energizes the world economy.**

Aramco occupies a unique position in the global energy industry. We are the world's largest producer of hydrocarbons (oil and gas), with the lowest upstream carbon intensity of any major producer.

With our significant investment in technology and infrastructure, we strive to maximize the value of the energy we produce for the world along with a commitment to enhance Aramco’s value to society.

Headquartered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with offices around the world, we combine market discipline with a generations’ spanning view of the future, born of our nine decades experience as responsible stewards of the Kingdom’s vast hydrocarbon resources. This responsibility has driven us to deliver significant societal and economic benefits to not just the Kingdom, but also to a vast number of communities, economies, and countries that rely on the vital and reliable energy that we supply.

We are one of the most profitable companies in the world, as well as amongst the top five global companies by market capitalization.

**Overview**:
We are seeking a geoscientist to join Geologic & Interpret Applications Division of Exploration Applications Services Department.
As a geoscientist working in GIAD, you will be involved in developing workflows that integrates multidisciplinary upstream data utilizing mainstream G&G software platforms, such as SIS Petrel and Landmark DecisionSpace Geoscience (DSG) among multiple other specialized software. You will work closely with exploration and development geologists, geophysicists, geo-modelers, and petrophysicists leveraging an in-depth experience in industry-leading Geological and Geophysical (G&G) software to conduct advanced basin and reservoir characterization studies.

**Key Responsibilities**:
You will be required to perform the following:
Work collaboratively with geoscientists to conduct exploration and reservoir characterization studies
Build advanced geoscience workflows incorporating multi-disciplinary data to discover, delineate, and develop oil and gas bearing reservoirs with maximum return of investment
Deploy and support cutting edge technologies and solutions and constantly develop expertise in predominantly evolving areas of research
Continue to acquire know-how and expand knowledge of specialized geoscience software aiming to build most accurate subsurface models in the least turnaround time possible thus reducing cost significantly
Develop and deliver customized geoscience training, in specialized areas including basin modeling, geomechanics, rock physics, quantitative and pre-stack seismic interpretation, inversion and advanced seismic attributes

**Minimum Requirements**:
Will hold a Bachelor’s degree in Geology or Geophysics. An MSc or PhD degree in geosciences is also desirable
Have at least 10 years of recent industry experience working on geoscience projects, studies and operations
Have an intensive knowledge in a wide range of geological and geophysical disciplines such as exploration basin modeling, play analysis, prospect generation, reservoir development and characterization, sedimentology and stratigraphy, structural geology, petroleum system analysis and other geoscience-related disciplines. Specialization in few sub disciplines is advantageous
Have Mastery level knowledge and experience in building and sustaining live earth model both structurally and petrophysically. Familiar with conformal mapping techniques to incorporate structural updates to earth models around deviated and horizontal wells
Are expert in handling and automating field geologists’ operational workflows such as well planning, well log interpretation, geosteering, and the use of seismic based data to assist in aforementioned workflows to achieve more accurate well placement
Have knowledge to deal with 2D/ and 3D seismic data, and conducting interpretation, building well ties, velocity models, seismic attributes, inversion, spectral decomposition

**Working environment**

Our high-performing employees are drawn by the challenging and rewarding professional, technical and industrial opportunities we offer, and are remunerated accordingly.

At Aramco, our people work on truly world-scale projects, supported by investment in capital and technology that is second to none. And because, as a global energy company, we are faced with addressing some of the world’s biggest technical, logístical and environmental challenges, we invest heavily in talent development.

We have a proud history of educating and training our workforce over many decades. Employees at all levels are encouraged to improve their sector-specific knowledge and competencies through our workforce development programs - one of the largest in the world.
