Full Time 27 days ago
Oil & Gas Upstream (Exploration & Production)
The Exploration Geoscientist is accountable for
performing 2D and 3D seismic interpretation to identify, map, and mature leads
and prospects, delivering high-quality time and depth maps, fault
interpretations, and structural frameworks. The role includes applying
quantitative interpretation (QI) workflows—such as seismic attributes,
inversion products, and basic AVO/AVA analysis—to support prospect derisking
and reservoir understanding, while integrating seismic results with well, rock
physics, and petrophysical data. The incumbent will contribute to prospect
risking, volumetric estimation, and uncertainty assessment, ensure robust QA/QC
and documentation of interpretation deliverables, and actively participate in
integrated subsurface studies, peer reviews, and decision-gate processes to
support exploration and appraisal decisions.

Job Responsibilities: - Interpret 2D and 3D seismic data to define
horizons, faults, closures, and stratigraphic features.- Perform seismic-to-well ties, construct
velocity models and perform depth conversion.- Map leads and prospects, including
structural, stratigraphic, and combination traps.- Generate seismic attributes (e.g. RMS
amplitude, spectral decomposition) to support reservoir presence and continuity
assessment.- Identifies the key risks associated with prospects and reduce
uncertainty through increased understanding of the subsurface model.- Plan and execute drilling of exploration and appraisal wells.- Utilize post-stack and pre-stack inversion
products (e.g. CSSI / elastic inversion outputs) under guidance.- Support AVO/AVA screening and rock-property
driven interpretation where applicable.- Support well placement decisions by
integrating seismic interpretation and QI outputs.- Participate in peer reviews, integrated
subsurface sessions, and well planning meetings.- Prepare concise technical maps, figures,
and written summaries for internal reviews.
