TL ABB Oil Team

-

Provide robust technical support on geology for the development of integrated geoscience learnings and their implementation into the integrated subsurface under the TL ABB Oil Team – Subsurface – Operated Assets scope, by applying advanced geoscience knowledge and industry learnings to deliver timely, high-quality geological analysis and interpretation (including the 3D static model) that progresses the Company's operated and non-operated assets across a variety of reservoirs, fluids, and maturity levels, to lead development operations, geological modelling, data acquisition, and people progression, and to coordinate special studies, prepare and update subsurface interpretations, and provide relevant data inputs to other disciplines, in order to enhance geological interpretation and support the discovery of significant oil and gas deposits.

The position will act in accordance with the OQEP's Mission, Vision, Values & Strategies, as well as, policies, guidelines, and international standards, supported by an IT Technology platform, QHSE & Energy Management System requirements standards, Omani's government & other legal justifications, and best international practices in consonance with national objectives.

• Lead, develop, and provide robust technical geological judgement on modification and innovation proposals in accordance with project (subsurface) requirements and relevant standards, ensuring safety and reliability, and provide guidance to junior engineers, trainees, and teams.
• Provide robust technical geological expertise, support, and innovative solutions for the execution of the geology process/discipline, ensuring teams apply common engineering principles and concepts; may handle a large scope of projects simultaneously.
• Represent the company as lead geoscientist at partner interface meetings and Technical Committee Meetings (TCMs).
