As a Reservoir Engineer, your key responsibilities will include:

  • Reservoir Management: Conduct detailed reservoir studies to evaluate field performance, estimate reserves, and identify opportunities for increased recovery.

  • Simulation & Modeling: Develop and maintain reservoir simulation models (black oil and compositional) to forecast production and evaluate development scenarios.

  • Field Development Planning: Collaborate with geoscientists and drilling engineers to design and implement field development plans, including infill drilling, workovers, and secondary recovery projects.

  • Production Optimization: Analyze well performance data, decline curves, and pressure-transient tests to recommend strategies that maximize production and efficiency.

  • Economic Evaluation: Perform reserves and production forecasting, prepare economic analyses, and support investment proposals for new projects and acquisitions.

  • Data Integration: Work closely with geology, drilling, and operations teams to integrate subsurface and surface data for comprehensive decision-making.

  • Compliance & Reporting: Ensure reserves evaluations meet SEC and SPE-PRMS standards; prepare technical documentation and present findings to management.

  • Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Petroleum Engineering or a related discipline (Master’s preferred).

  • Experience: 5–10 years of reservoir engineering experience, with a strong background in onshore conventional oil and gas fields.

  • Technical Expertise: Proficiency in reservoir simulation software (e.g., CMG, Eclipse, Petrel RE) and production analysis tools (e.g., OFM, Aries).

  • Industry Knowledge: Solid understanding of fluid flow in porous media, reserves classification, and economic evaluation.

  • Analytical Skills: Exceptional quantitative and problem-solving abilities, with the ability to synthesize complex data into actionable recommendations.

  • Collaboration: Strong interpersonal and communication skills, capable of working effectively with multidisciplinary teams.

  • Detail-Oriented: Commitment to accuracy, compliance, and best practices in all engineering deliverables.

  • Certifications: Professional Engineer (PE) license in Texas preferred, but not required.
