Job Description

Primary Purpose of the Job:
Lead integrated reservoir studies and reservoir management of the QatarEnergy
operated oil fields to optimize field development plans. Lead and contribute to reservoir
simulation modelling studies including model construction and update, reservoir/well
performance analysis, reservoir surveillance program, infill and workover well
programs and reservoir management activities. Support and follow-up on third-party
reservoir & modelling studies ensuring technical quality and progress. Formulate
detailed/integrated development plans for both developed and undeveloped
hydrocarbon resources. Identify key reservoir and development risks and uncertainties
and recommend mitigation plans. Provide guidance to younger team members, and
on-the-job training for young engineers.
