Key responsibilities

• Build Full Field simulation models, history match them and use them for predictions
• Update and generate black oil and compositional models for field development planning and production profiles
• Work with geoscientists on reservoir characterisation and upscaling
• Check simulation models and history match scenarios for consistency with geological model characteristics
• Characterise reservoir fluids, calibrate EOS models and convert black oil models to compositional
• Diagnose model convergence and run-time problems
• Design IOR/EOR methods with the Technical Centre, including water injection, gas injection and surfactant and polymer injection
• Estimate reserves using probabilistic and deterministic methods such as Mbal, DCA and simulation sensitivities
• Run special studies on well spacing, infill wells, advanced wells and pilots
• Integrate pressure and production test results and relative permeability data into simulation and management decisions
• Design, follow up and analyse RCA, SCAL and PVT studies
• Contribute to a cost-effective reservoir monitoring and data gathering programme
• Review contractor study findings and act on their recommendations
• Recalibrate models using monthly production and injection data
• Train and develop assigned staff and provide inputs to section budgets and MIS reports
