Woodside is one of Australia's most successful explorers, developers and producers of oil and gas. We are proud of our past and excited about our future.
Quantitative Interpretation Geophysicist
Opportunities now exist for experienced quantitative interpretation geophysicists to work within the Geotechnical Operations Division in the Reservoir Geophysics team at the Woodside head office in Perth.
Responsibilities:
Perform quantitative/high level seismic interpretation in assigned areas/fields in support to the exploration and development assets for the purpose of prospect evaluation and risking, planning well drilling programs, building reservoir models and developing seismic reservoir monitoring programs.
Successful applicants will be expected to work closely with petrophysicists, geologists and asset geophysicists to integrate quantitative interpretation results into prospect evaluation and/or reservoir model building and monitoring.
The work scope generally encompasses:
* Involvement in planning processing/reprocessing activities for AVO interpretation.
* Amplitude and AVO interpretation;
* Seismic inversion;
* Preparation of seismic models to support amplitude interpretation and uncertainty estimation;
* Input to prospect evaluation and risking;
* Involvement in well planning;
* Involvement in preparing static reservoir models utilising seismic data;
* Identification and utilisation of new and emerging technologies.
As a Quantitative Interpretation Geophysicist, the selected candidate will be responsible for the technical quality of all specialist geophysical interpretation studies for their respective projects. This will involve supervision and mentoring of junior staff working on common projects either within the group or on assets. This is primarily a hand-on position however supervision of external contractors may occasionally be involved. It is critical that the candidate is not only self-motivated but also an excellent communicator and team player.
The selected individual will be exposed to a range of experiences across the complete E&P value chain. Woodside is enjoying a period with high levels of exploration and development activity (including time-lapse projects) both in Australia and internationally. The successful applicant will be joining at an exciting and challenging time with the opportunity for significant impact on development success of the company and personal career enrichment.
Special Challenges:
The position offers an ideal opportunity for hands-on technical skills at the high end of technology and work practices in a dynamic, opportunity-rich business environment. It also provides experience working in a deliverables-focussed, multi-discipline, high-energy team environment.
The position requires a strong team working ability and good communication skills in order to provide quantitative seismic interpretations and solutions for the generation of drilling and development opportunities.
The successful candidate will have:
• Degree in Geophysics with advanced degree preferred.
• 10+ years of broad experience in the oil & gas industry.
• Sound knowledge of seismic acquisition and processing and their impact on quantitative seismic interpretation.
• Sound knowledge of rock physics and AVO.
• Have a good understanding of petrophysical interpretation for QI studies.
• Experienced hands-on user of RokDoc modelling software or similar with experience in higher-end modelling techniques.
• Experienced hands-on user of Jason Workbench inversion software or similar with experience in higher end seismic inversion techniques.
• Experienced with QI techniques and their incorporation into the interpretation process.
• Have a good understanding of seismic data evaluation and prospect risking.
• Have a good understanding of reservoir monitoring technologies.
