JOB PURPOSE

Support the exploration geophysicist in the acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of geophysical data to identify and evaluate potential oil and gas deposits.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES

• Participate in the collection, quality control, storage and analysis of geophysical data.
• Assist in the analysis and interpretation of geophysical data, including seismic data and well logs, to identify subsurface structures for reservoir modeling and resources assessment.
• Participate in monitoring the acquisition of geological and geophysical data to ensure quality.
• Participate in geological and geophysical field mapping.
• Prepare notes, sketches, cross sections, reports and maps that can be used to define geophysical characteristics of prospective areas.
• Plot information from aerial photographs, well logs, section descriptions, and other databases.
• Assemble, operate, and maintain field and laboratory equipment, working as part of a crew when required.
• Collect and prepare information and field samples for analysis; and conduct analyses on samples to determine their content and characteristics.
• Support the development of operational procedures for exploration operations.
• Work closely with geologists, geophysicists and other team members to integrate geophysical data and interpretations for exploration projects.
• Acquire knowledge in geophysical methods and techniques used in the oil and gas industry including seismic data acquisition, processing and interpretation.
• Use geophysical data interpretation software and tools, staying updated on industry advancements in geophysical techniques.
• Promote a culture of health, safety, and environmental responsibility within the geophysics team.
• Provide regular updates and reports to the Exploration Geophysicist and team members on geophysical findings, progress, and recommendations.
• Undertake any other duties and responsibilities as may be assigned from time to time by the supervisor(s).

Qualifications & Experience

1) Bachelor of Science (Bsc) Hons in either Geology and Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics, Petroleum Geosciences & Petroleum Engineering, or other relevant honours degree from a recognised University.

2) Zero to three (0-3) years of working experience in Petroleum E&P Operations.

3) Membership in the relevant oil and gas industry professional bodies like SPE, AAPG, and SEG is an added advantage.

Skills & Competencies

• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail for accurate interpretation of geophysical data.
• Effective problem-solving skills and the ability to make sound technical decisions.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate effectively with team members.
• Willingness to learn and adapt new geophysical techniques and technologies.
• Ability to work both independently and within a multidisciplinary team environment.
• Knowledge of Health, Safety and Environment practices in Oil and Gas.
