  • Field Development Planning: Collaborate with geoscientists and drilling engineers to design and implement field development plans, including infill drilling, workovers, and secondary recovery projects.

  • Production Optimization: Analyze well performance data, decline curves, and pressure-transient tests to recommend strategies that maximize production and efficiency.

  • Economic Evaluation: Perform reserves and production forecasting, prepare economic analyses, and support investment proposals for new projects and acquisitions.

  • Data Integration: Work closely with geology, drilling, and operations teams to integrate subsurface and surface data for comprehensive decision-making.

  • Experience: 5–10 years of reservoir engineering experience, with a strong background in onshore conventional oil and gas fields.

  • Technical Expertise: Proficiency in reservoir simulation software (e.g., CMG, Eclipse, Petrel RE) and production analysis tools (e.g., OFM, Aries).

  • Industry Knowledge: Solid understanding of fluid flow in porous media, reserves classification, and economic evaluation.

  • Analytical Skills: Exceptional quantitative and problem-solving abilities, with the ability to synthesize complex data into actionable recommendations.

  • Collaboration: Strong interpersonal and communication skills, capable of working effectively with multidisciplinary teams.

  • Detail-Oriented: Commitment to accuracy, compliance, and best practices in all engineering deliverables.

  • Certifications: Professional Engineer (PE) license in Texas preferred, but not required.
