The Development & Production Geoscientist Advanced integrates multi-discipline subsurface data, evaluates reservoir connectivity, and develops geologic models that inform field development and optimization plans. This role applies multi-basin experience, interprets complex geological and geophysical datasets, and improves workflows for uncertainty analysis, risk assessment, and reservoir characterizations. Many skills map to this job role (Geologic Modeling, Field Evaluation, Field Optimization & Abandonment, etc.). It is not the expectation to build deep knowledge and specialization across them all, but rather a select few, enhanced with knowledge across a broad spectrum of fundamental and foundational geoscience skills.
Integrate and interpret geological, geophysical, and engineering data to map reservoir architecture, connectivity, and heterogeneity.

• Develop geological models and refine stratigraphic and structural frameworks across fields and apply regional and play-scale insights to strengthen reservoir characterization and field assessments.
• Evaluate subsurface uncertainty and risk drivers, coordinate with cross-functional teams to align interpretations with well planning, optimize workflows, and evaluate volumetric scenarios.
• Actively engage production team to update interpretation and develop insights for field optimization and abandonment plans, update reservoir characterization and interpretation based on new data and / or reservoir performance.
• Represent geoscience skills during internal meetings (Peer Reviews, etc.), within professional communities, and external partner reviews (Joint Interest / Joint Venture / Operated by Other), informs benchmarking, and influences development of new technology solutions with vendors.
