What are the responsibilities and job description for the Regional Exploration Seal Analyst - Relocate to Saudi Arabia position at aramco?
Candidate must Relocate to Saudi Arabia.
Aramco energizes the world economy.
Aramco occupies a unique position in the global energy industry. We are the world's largest producer of hydrocarbons (oil and gas), with the lowest upstream carbon intensity of any major producer.
With our significant investment in technology and infrastructure, we strive to maximize the value of the energy we produce for the world along with a commitment to enhance Aramco’s value to society.
Headquartered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with offices around the world, we combine market discipline with a generations’ spanning view of the future, born of our nine decades experience as responsible stewards of the Kingdom’s vast hydrocarbon resources. This responsibility has driven us to deliver significant societal and economic benefits to not just the Kingdom, but also to a vast number of communities, economies, and countries that rely on the vital and reliable energy that we supply.
We are one of the most profitable companies in the world, as well as amongst the top five global companies by market capitalization.
Overview
We are seeking a Regional Exploration Seal Analyst with a Seal Evaluation Specialty to join the Exploration Resource Assessment Dept.
The Exploration Resource Assessment Dept (ERAD) is responsible to meet the demand of hydrocarbon resources and obtain a sustainable amount of oil and gas recovery to replace the ongoing production. The Department is a fundamental start and end-point for the Exploration Organization, and creates both the framework within which exploration activities are planned and also the assessment of discovered volumes. We look forward to sustaining the Kingdom’s dominant oil and gas position by growing the proven resources, and increasing the exploration success rate. Furthermore, finding oil and gas resources through strategic exploration methods that integrate the best talent, optimal processes and technologies in a safe and cost-effective manner.
As a Regional Exploration Seal Analyst, you will be responsible to evaluate all basin-scale geoscience data to analyze regional and intra-formational seals, and assess sealing capacity for different hydrocarbon traps in various scales.
Key Responsibilities
As a successful candidate you will be required to perform the following:
• Assess regional and intra-formational seals of Arabian stratigraphic systems in a sequence stratigraphic framework
• Evaluate and predict sealing capacity for varying lithofacies by integrating petrography, Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP) data and well logs in industrial software packages
• Assess hydrodynamic and hydraulic sealing capacity for varying lithologies and trap geometries
• Collaborate with basin modelers and provide vertical and lateral sealing capacity inputs for 3D basin modelling in a play-based exploration approach
• Assess and predict fault seals in carbonates and siliciclastic systems
• Place work into play venture context by integrating with other geoscience disciplines and ultimately reporting actionable play-level plans to management
• Perform top and lateral sealing capacity assessment including: hydraulic sealing potential to constrain play fairways, and provide essential play-based exploration (PBE) opportunities for exploration geoscientists.
Minimum Requirements
As a successful candidate you will hold a:
• Bachelor’s Degree in Geosciences or related discipline (e.g., Geology, Geophysics, or other related science and engineering fields) from an accredited university. Advanced degree is a plus.
• Minimum of 15 years of experience, with special experience in regional studies and at least 5 years of professional experience in play-based exploration.
• Specialized expertise on multiple integrated geoscience disciplines to assess sedimentary basins and the associated undiscovered prospective hydrocarbon resources.
• Ability to place work into play venture context for reporting actionable play-level plans to management.
Working environment
Our high-performing employees are drawn by the challenging and rewarding professional, technical and industrial opportunities we offer, and are remunerated accordingly.
At Aramco, our people work on truly world-scale projects, supported by investment in capital and technology that is second to none.
