Petrophysicist

Job Description

Entity: Production & Operations Job Family Group: Subsurface Group Job Summary: Responsible for providing petro physical input to key reservoir management studies and influencing the future direction of petro physical work in the defined region, assisting with data acquisition planning, maintaining the quality of petro physical work acrossassets and providing advanced petro physical technical assurance to the asset teams. This role is for an individual contributor Petrophysicist supporting a collection of fields currently drilling and planning infill targets. The role will include providing operational support for new wells but will also include subsurface reservoir descriptionwork, uncertainty analysis, and assurance and mentorship for the development and production of the reservoirs within the portfolio. In addition, there may also be a requirement to provide support for other regional fields.You will be accountable for planning and delivering petrophysics data acquisition in several North Sea Fields. Experience in LWD data acquisition including, but not limited to, Geo-steering, Nuclear, Resistivity, Borehole Imaging for fracture/facies identification,NMR and Formation Pressures and Fluid sampling.You will play a part in the development and maintenance of petrophysical models for the field, integration of new data into the models and ensuring they are consistent with the subsurface description(s) for the various reservoirs and with BP’s standard processes.Supporting and delivering reservoir development studies to increase understanding of the reservoirs will be key to helping improve recovery from the field and will be used to advise the Integrated Subsurface Description (ISD) and Depletion Plan of the reservoirsgoing forward. You will also require a broad petrophysical experience to include open/cased hole log interpretation!Data will be coordinated into a range of subsurface products including Techlog, MIPS, Petrel and Plato. The successful candidate will possess data analysis skills and will be a confident communicator. This person will be encouraged to provide mentoringand knowledge sharing with other Petrophysicists.Key Accountabilities

• Demonstrate a dedication to safety in the workplace as well as helping to build an inclusive, safe working environment where people can voice ideas and offer and receive feedback.
• Commit to build a diverse, equitable workspace where team members feel empowered to voice opinions and concerns regardless of background, age or experience.
• Champion new or different ideas and technology which can add shown value to our operations whilst also focusing on reducing costs and reducing any impact on the environment.
• Develop coordinated formation evaluation data acquisition programmes for surveillance programmes, to address key reservoir uncertainties, ensuring alignment with new well data acquisition programs.
• Deliver consistent petrophysical interpretations for both new and existing wells, with a focus on integrating new well / cased hole / surveillance data into subsurface products.
• Handle the maintenance of a consistent and up to date database of all log and core data.

Essential Education and QualificationsDegree in Geoscience, Physics, Petroleum Engineering or similar preferredEssential Experience and Attributes

• Minimum 12 years petrophysics experience within BP and/or industry.
• Experience working in multi-discipline / functional project team and ability to influence others to provide quality inputs to ensure quality team delivery.
• Excellent open and cased hole petrophysical interpretation skills and comfortable with large datasets.
• Confident, open communicator; Experienced with addressing senior management.
