Job DescriptionPosition Summary & Responsibilities:
- The ideal candidate will be in the office an average of 3 days per week.
- Provide integrated petroleum engineering support across international conventional assets, with exposure to unconventional projects on a limited basis.
- Apply reservoir engineering and management principles to optimize production and recovery across operated and non-operated assets.
- Evaluate greenfield and brownfield fields and provide fit to purpose development analysis.
- Evaluate and recommend oil and gas reservoir exploitation strategies including enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and monitor their application and performance.
- Contribute to reservoir characterization and simulation efforts, including building and running static and simulation models, in support of development planning.
- Collaborate with geoscience, drilling, facilities, production and operations teams to ensure integrated subsurface solutions and field-level decision-making.
- Support asset operations, reserves estimation, well performance analysis, and model project economics as required.
- Engage with field operations personnel and in-country teams to bridge technical and operational activities.
- Travel internationally on an as-needed basis to interact with operations teams primarily in South America and the Middle East.
Required Skills:
- Strong foundation in reservoir engineering fundamentals: material balance, decline curve analysis, pressure transient analysis (PTA), and rate transient analysis (RTA).
- Demonstrated knowledge of enhanced oil recovery techniques including waterflooding, gas injection, chemical EOR, and related surveillance and optimization practices.
- Working knowledge of reservoir modeling and simulation; experience with industry-standard tools (Petrel RE, Eclipse, Intersect, T-Navigator or similar).
- Understanding and application of petroleum geology and petrophysical principles as they apply to reservoir characterization and development.
- Field-level operations experience with the ability to integrate production engineering and operational insights into reservoir management strategies.
- Proficiency with industry engineering tools such as ARIES, PHDWin, Petex (Prosper/MBAL/Gap/Resolve), Kappa, IHS Harmony, or similar packages.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite; experience with AI, analytical and data visualization tools (Copilot, Claude, Spotfire, Power BI, or similar) is a plus.
- Ability to work effectively within integrated project teams (IPTs) spanning reservoir engineering, geoscience, drilling, and operations disciplines.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills in English; proficiency in Spanish or Arabic is a plus.
Required Experience:
- Bachelor's degree in petroleum engineering or closely related engineering discipline (required).
- Minimum of 10 years of petroleum/reservoir engineering experience, with meaningful exposure to field operations.
- Demonstrated experience working on international conventional assets.
- Experience with unconventional reservoirs is a plus, though not the primary focus of this role.
- Proven record of applying reservoir engineering methods and EOR in field development or operations context.
- Experience or strong interaction with facilities design, production and operations is a plus.
Company Highlights:
- Free specialty coffee bar in the Dallas HQ
- Onsite breakfast and lunch area in the Dallas HQ
