Responsibilities

Assist area Geophysicists with ongoing exploration and development projects
Perform quality control and interpretation of well logs and 2D/3D/4D seismic datasets
Integrate well and seismic data (e.g., well ties, synthetics, forward modelling) to support subsurface understanding
Interpret key geological features and generate maps (structure, amplitude, isochron)
Apply seismic attributes and data analysis techniques to identify reservoirs and characterize subsurface properties
Collaborate with geophysicists, geologists, and engineers to support exploration, risk assessment, and development planning
Prepare and present technical findings using clear visuals and effective communication
