Job Purpose

Takes lead role in the initial build and maintenance of the active FF dynamic simulation models based on new and evolving Geo-model builds. Build reservoir simulation models (Full filed & Sector) to ensure latest reservoir and other data and knowledge are "tired and tested" in the test models before being rolled over to the operational FF model. Provides up dated HCIIP and single well production forecasts to be used in economic analyses.

Job Specific Accountabilities (Part 1)

Utilities reservoir simulation models based Geo-model and fluid uncertainties to refine estimates in field total and field accessible HCIIP. Identify and Manage key sub surface uncertainties Work closely with Reservoir Studies Geologist to identify optional method and degree of up-scaling from Geo-model to Dynamic model. Constructs sector models to assist in understanding the impact of reservoir heterogeneity, fractures and other reservoir properties may have on well production.
