Working within the Operated by Others (OBO) multi-disciplinary subsurface team, the Senior Reservoir Engineer will deliver opportunities for production enhancement and resource additions by influencing the operator and joint venture partners. They will be responsible for multiple assets across the OBO portfolio.

The Senior Reservoir Engineer will have the following main duties and responsibilities:

• Provide subsurface decision support for non-operated assets, framing key decisions, identifying critical uncertainties and providing clear recommendations to management.
• Provide independent technical assurance and challenge of operator evaluations, focusing on uncertainties and assumptions material to value and decision quality.
• Develop and maintain technical position through integrated subsurface evaluation.
• Build technical alignment between company, operators and co-venturers to enable effective decision making and maximise value to company.
• Define and deliver reservoir engineering work programs in support of business strategy across multiple assets.
• Identify, mature and influence the operator to deliver opportunities for production enhancement and resource growth.
• Maintain production forecasts in support of mid and long-term business plans.
• Mentoring junior staff.
• Interface and leverage technical expertise to influence subsurface team priorities and work programs.
• Development of technical recommendations to support subsurface, asset and investment decisions.
• Generation of production forecasts to support key business decisions using the appropriate tools (e.g. analogue, DCA, material balance, simulation models).
• Review, challenge and assurance of operator reservoir engineering evaluations and recommendations.
• Analysis and integration of production, pressure, fluid and surveillance data to identify opportunities, risks and key uncertainties.
• Evaluation of production enhancement and new well opportunities.
• Reserves assessments.
• Monitoring and assisting with specialists and contractors to manage reservoir engineering projects.
• Reservoir engineering input to internal and external business approvals, partner engagements and technical committee meetings.
