URECD is responsible for identifying and evaluating Unconventional Resources across the Kingdom, leveraging integrated subsurface studies to challenge traditional perspectives and drive portfolio growth. We collaborate with asset teams to advance appraisal and field development plans, ensuring a comprehensive approach to exploring, characterizing, and developing these resources. This role requires relocation to Saudi Arabia. Key ResponsibilitiesAssess and evaluate petroleum systems and plays interpretation workflows and products. Interrogate completed technical evaluations of wells and fields, and associated technical studies. Evaluate seismic, log, and core data to characterize subsurface structures, facies, and fluid distributions. Evaluate drilling, completions, production, and diagnostics data to understand reservoir performance. Provide guidance to geoscientists to accurately define the subsurface using geological maps, cross-sections, and grids; that incorporate seismic, sedimentological, petrophysical, and geomechanically data, etc. Work collaboratively with professionals across all geoscience and engineering disciplines. Review pre-drill and post-drill well/field evaluations. Compile and present technical reports summarizing key technical risks and challenges. Mentor other geoscience professionals. As the successful candidate you will hold Bachelor's degree in Geosciences (Geology, Geophysics, or equivalent) from a recognized and approved program, an advanced degree is preferred. 10-15 years of experience in the Exploration and Production (E&P) industry, including experience in multiple unconventional plays including both source rock, and tight sand/carbonate plays. Experience in resource estimation and technical risk assessment, for portfolio evaluation. Proficiency in two or more of the following subsurface disciplines; seismic interpretation, QI, structural geology, stratigraphy, sedimentology, petrophysics, geomodelling, geochemistry, basin modeling, and geomechanics.
