We are looking for an experienced Reservoir Simulation Contractor to support a range of carbon capture and storage (CCS) / carbon storage programs. This position will focus on developing, calibrating, and utilizing reservoir simulation models to assess CO₂ storage performance, optimize injection approaches, and ensure safe, compliant long-term storage.
The ideal candidate has strong technical capabilities in multiphase flow simulation and subsurface modeling, along with hands-on experience in CO₂ storage, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), or gas injection projects.
Key Responsibilities
- Create, update, and run dynamic reservoir simulation models for CO₂ storage formations
- Perform simulation studies to assess:
- CO₂ injectivity and plume behavior
- Pressure changes and management approaches
- Storage capacity and effectiveness
- Containment integrity and trapping processes
- Incorporate geological, petrophysical, and fluid datasets into simulation models
- Carry out history matching and uncertainty analysis when required
- Work closely with cross-functional teams (geoscience, petrophysics, drilling, facilities, and regulatory)
- Provide technical contributions to MMV (Monitoring, Measurement, and Verification) planning
- Prepare clear technical reports and presentations for both internal and external stakeholders
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field is required
- Ph.D. in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field is preferred
- Minimum of 5+ years of experience in reservoir simulation
- Demonstrated experience with industry-standard simulation tools, preferably ECLIPSE / INTERSECT
- Strong knowledge of:
- Multiphase flow in porous media
- CO₂ thermodynamics and phase behavior
- Core reservoir engineering fundamentals
- Experience integrating geological models into simulation workflows
- Experience linking wellbore hydraulics with reservoir simulation models
- Proficiency in data analysis and visualization tools such as Python, MATLAB, and Excel
Closing: 24 July 2026
