Co2 Storage Geoscientist
1 week ago
PE Global is currently recruiting for a CO2 Storage Geoscientist for our oil & gas client in the Middle East.
**Position Description**
**Minimum Requirements**
- Experience in planning and involved with the operational decision making of several wells.
- English language fluency with the capability to communicate clearly and effectively verbally and in writing, with experience of working with multidisciplinary teams across different parts of an organization.
- Experience of other non-hydrocarbon subsurface management challenges such as geothermal, Hydrogen storage, chemical storage etc would be an advantage.
- A track record of research publications or patents would be an advantage.
- Excellent presentation skills.
**Duties and Responsibilities**
- Exploration mapping and option generation for CO2 storage.
- Have a background of CO2 properties and how they relate to depth of storage, seal effectiveness and long-term aspects of trapping mechanism, subsurface dynamics and interaction with subsurface materials such as lithologies and drilled wells.
- Interpret well information, making well correlations and working with petro-physicists as required to define stratigraphic frameworks and the properties of reservoirs and seals, and characterize in-situ formation water properties.
- Participate in the acquisition planning and possibly interpretation of geo-mechanical information, such as analysis of conventional core, relating to seal integrity for CO2 storage.
- Familiarity with well injection testing and operations, and interpretation of well test data in terms of reservoir performance in relation to CO2 storage.
- Interpret seismic, including seismic stratigraphic interpretations for storage.
- Structural geology skills including fault interpretation and fault seal.
- Understand depth conversion of seismically-mapped geological surfaces, considering velocity information and uncertainties.
- Map making using industry standard tools.
- Storage volume and risk estimates.
- Prepare and present professional-quality presentation materials to technical peers and management.
