Context & Environment
  • The reservoirs are turbidites thereby necessitating more complexity in reservoir description and representation in the geological
models.Deadlines could be tight with occasional operational constraints.Activities
  • Support and up-date when necessary the geological understanding of the reservoirs.
  • Evaluate the existing geological and reservoir models, proposes and justifies data acquisitions and GSR studies aimed at improving the reservoir evaluations for prospects, under appraisal and developed fields
  • Contribute to major 2G&R studies completed in HQ or dedicated projects by validating the input data and/or providing requested data and information
  • Evaluate, propose and justify projects of drilling for nearby exploration, complementary infill well development
  • Contribute to the design of the drilling projects (well trajectory, objectives, equipment, data acquisition) with Geophysicist, Drilling Dpt. and Subsurface, up to the Well Location Report
  • Prepare and follow subsurface operations and well data acquisition with subsurface operation geologist
  • Analyse, validate and integrate in a consistent geological scheme new seismic and well data
  • Implement, Coordinate and Guarantee the consistency of specialist studies
  • Guarantee the quality of G&G data syntheses
  • Implement and contributes with Reservoir to dynamic synthesis and field reviews
  • Identify the geological uncertainties for risk analysis studies
  • Guarantee the geological consistency of the flow simulation models
  • Ensure and/or guarantee the assessment of volumes in place and related uncertainties
  • Ensure relations with HQ, partners and authorities in the field of Reservoir Geology
  • Ensure relations with HQ, partners and authorities in the field of Basin Geology
  • Supervise the implementation and execution of proper G&G data management methods
  • Participate in data rooms and validate 2G evaluations
  • Submit updated results, ideas and concepts to adhoc committees for validation
