Job Responsibilities
- Develop and calibrate rock physics models linking elastic properties to reservoir properties such as porosity, permeability, lithology, and fluid saturation.
- Lead seismic-to-well calibration workflows, including synthetic seismograms, wavelet extraction, phase analysis, and time-depth optimization.
- Develop and quality-control rock physics templates and diagnostic crossplots using core, well-log, and production data.
- Apply fluid substitution and rock physics modelling to predict seismic responses for different reservoir fluid scenarios.
- Perform well-log quality control, normalization, environmental corrections, and depth-to-time conversion for seismic inversion and AVO studies.
- Design and execute seismic inversion workflows, including model-based, sparse-spike, simultaneous, stochastic, and geostatistical inversion.
- Generate acoustic and elastic impedance, Vp/Vs, and other quantitative seismic volumes for reservoir property prediction.
- Deliver seismic-derived porosity, net-to-gross, saturation, and lithofacies probability volumes calibrated against well and core data.
- Conduct Quantitative Interpretation (QI) studies to identify reservoir sweet spots, bypassed pay, and opportunities for appraisal and infill drilling.
- Apply machine learning and advanced analytical techniques to seismic inversion and facies classification.
- Lead pre-stack AVO and AVAz analysis for lithology and fluid discrimination and assessment of natural fracture characteristics.
- Conduct Direct Hydrocarbon Indicator (DHI) studies and provide calibrated risk assessments for exploration and appraisal targets.
- Extract and interpret seismic attributes, including amplitude, frequency, phase, spectral decomposition, curvature, coherence, similarity, and dip-related attributes.
- Develop seismic facies classification workflows using neural networks, self-organizing maps, probabilistic methods, and other advanced techniques.
- Integrate seismic attributes with well logs, core data, geological information, and biostratigraphic data to support static geological modelling.
- Lead 4D seismic feasibility, processing, and interpretation studies to monitor changes in saturation, pressure, compaction, fluid movement, and reservoir performance.
- Integrate 4D seismic results with dynamic reservoir simulation and production data to support history matching, fluid-contact updates, and recovery forecasting.
- Provide geophysical input to EOR programs, including water flooding, gas injection, and other reservoir surveillance activities.
- Evaluate 4D seismic repeatability and recommend improvements to acquisition and monitoring strategies.
- Lead integrated reservoir characterization studies combining seismic QI, petrophysics, geological modelling, and dynamic simulation.
- Collaborate with Reservoir Engineers and Petrophysicists to integrate seismic-derived reservoir properties into static and dynamic models.
- Support appraisal and development well planning by providing reservoir thickness, porosity, fluid-contact, and uncertainty assessments.
- Develop uncertainty quantification workflows using scenario-based, Monte…
