Geologist

Our client is a major player in the upstream, and downstream segments of the petroleum sector. With a quality portfolio of oil and gas assets in Nigeria, our capabilities extend through upstream (exploration & production and drilling), downstream, trading of oil product, sub-surface engineering and data appraisal for geophysics and petroleum projects. ROLE DESCRIPTION: interpretation of data using geophysical techniques to forecast the location for extraction. Role requires the generation of a structural and sedimentary plan for oil trap identification and exploration. JOB DESCRIPTION: - Provide quality interpretations (2D and 3D) and data interpretations and drives workstation skills leading to the generation of well plan for the exploration. - Use Landmark Application for seismic interpretation and well log evaluation. - Stratworks adoption for the Lithological Correlation and Evaluation of Well formation. - Subsurface studies in a variety of Stratigraphy, Sedimentology, and Structural settings for possible yielding zones. - Denudation stratification and sedimentation study of the Ajapa field through the available seismic data. - Seismic interpretation and wire line logging interpretation. - Technique research fields and picking of faults and horizons for more prolific zones. - Representation of faulty lines on the map using edit polygon (Fault Polygon). - Periodic investigation of the composition, structure, and history of the earth's crust through the collection, examination, measurement, and classification of soils, minerals, rocks, and fossil remains. - Surveying and mapping geologically promising sites as well as collecting and recording samples and data from test sites. - Analyzing geological data using applicable industry standard software - Ascertaining extraction risks and natural disasters such as mud slides, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, and providing advice on ways in which potential damage can be mitigated. - Reservoir characterization and Evaluation of petro physical parameters. - Thorough studies and mapping out of prospect, maturation/appraisal and early exploration phase data acquisition and associated operations. - Research study on both log data and seismic data of the field in accordance with the instruction of the Supervisor/Head of Department. - Interpretation of Horizons, that are annotated and presentation of major faults and Horizons interpretation: - Any other task as assigned by the Exploration Manager. COMPETENCIES REQUIRED - Knowledge of a range of sciences and their applications - Ability to work within a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers - Computer literacy and ability to analyze numerical and graphical data - Good written and verbal communication skills - Knowledge of applicable industry standard soft wares eg: Decision Space Cuosciences, Petrel, Seisworks, Stratworks etc - Capability in ground and surface water assessment - Seismic data interpretation - Writing research papers QUALIFICATION AND EXPERIENCE - A degree in Petroleum Geology or Geophysics - A minimum of 1 year experience in a similar role - Relevant postgraduate qualification will be an added advantage - Forecast accuracy in initiating extraction processes Only qualified candidates will be contacted.
