Full Job Description
Job Title: Geomodeller, Geoscience, Geophysicist II
Duration: 1 year with possibility of extension
Schedule: 5/40
Sponsorship Provided: No
Location: Spring, TX

This opportunity supports carbon storage projects, with a focus on subsurface modelling and technical evaluation. The role is centered on geomodelling, static geological models, Petrel expertise, and integration of geological, geophysical, petrophysical, and engineering datasets. This position offers the chance to contribute to storage resource assessment, development planning, regulatory support, and safe, effective CO2 storage operations across the project lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Integrate geological, geophysical, petrophysical, and engineering datasets to develop and maintain static geological models for carbon storage projects.
  • Build and update structural and stratigraphic frameworks that characterize reservoir geometry, heterogeneity, connectivity, compartmentalization, and storage complex architecture.
  • Perform seismic conditioning, property modelling, and model calibration activities to improve subsurface characterization and model predictability.
  • Generate geologic models that support storage resource assessment, reservoir simulation, pressure forecasting, and development planning activities.
  • Assess and communicate subsurface uncertainties, model sensitivities, and key geologic risk drivers impacting storage performance and capacity estimates.
  • Improve, maintain, and apply geomodelling workflows, standards, and best practices to increase efficiency, consistency, and technical quality.
  • Contribute to technical documentation, peer reviews, assurance activities, and regulatory support as required.
  • Communicate modelling assumptions, results, uncertainties, and recommendations to technical and business stakeholders.
Required Skills:
  • Geologic modeling and Petrel expertise, including framework construction, static model development, property modeling, and calibration.
  • Workflow development and data integration, including well log, seismic, and core.
  • Uncertainty analysis, scenario modeling, volumetric assessments, and sensitivity testing.
