Experienced Geoscientist
Vår Energi is seeking experienced Geoscientists to join our subsurface teams at our Stavanger and Oslo locations. Candidates are expected to work in multi-disciplinary teams and have a proven track record of adding value by integrating key subsurface data to identify and characterize opportunities at the wellbore, reservoir, field and regional scales. We offer exciting opportunities across our operated and partner-operated portfolio.
Main tasks
As a high-end contributor in multi-disciplinary teams you will perform, lead and deliver the Geoscience components of integrated subsurface studies to drive and support business decisions.
Assignments can involve combinations of the following:
- Deep understanding of reservoir architecture in depositional systems and experienced in a variety of depositional settings: Continental-Paralic-Shallow Marine-Deep Marine
- Develop depositional models that explain and predict distributions of reservoir facies and quality.
- Understand the value of subsurface and outcrop analogues and identify and select relevant analogues to enhance understanding
- Lead/perform reservoir quality, petrology, petrographic studies, identify relevant diagenetic processes and trends and their impact on reservoir quality. Incorporate results in reservoir characterization studies
- Interpret consistent 3D fault & horizon frameworks at a variety of scales (reservoir, field, basin scale)
- Able to apply and combine a variety of interpretation techniques, flattening, spectral decomp, Paleoscan, visualization & volume interpretation
- Qualitative seismic attribute analysis and interpreting the resulting patterns to understand structural and stratigraphic features, seismic anomalies and artifacts
- Concepts of Velocity model building and depth conversion
- Knowledge of seismic inversion methods and types
- Contribute to CCS license application and approval
- Support CCS new business development opportunities
- Prepares and presents at internal peer reviews, technical workshops, and relevant committees.
- Mentor early-career colleagues in subsurface characterisation
Qualifications
- >15 years of relevant experience in subsurface characterisation
- Graduate Degree (Masters/PhD) in a relevant discipline
- Experienced Petrel user
- Fluent English written and oral communication skills
We are offering
- Challenging tasks in a dynamic and a strong competent environment with the opportunity to grow, learn and be creative
- Competitive salary and benefits such as pension, insurance schemes, loan arrangements, access to cabins, additional days off and a comprehensive welfare package
- Internationally diverse working environment and internal development opportunities
- To be a part of a company which believes in the future of the NCS and offers rewarding tasks and responsibilities across a diverse portfolio of assets for the right candidate
- A strong corporate culture where we are team players, with focus on new solutions, learning and integrity
As a part of our routines background checks are performed on all final candidates
