Petroleum Engineer

As a Petroleum Engineer in the oil and gas industry, you will be responsible for designing and developing methods for extracting oil and gas from deposits below the earth’s surface. Leveraging your expertise, you will evaluate potential sites, plan drilling operations, and implement strategies to optimize production. Your role is essential in ensuring efficient and sustainable extraction processes, contributing to the operational success of oil and gas projects.

Job Responsibilities:

• Design and develop extraction methods for oil and gas, ensuring efficiency and safety in all operations.

• Evaluate potential drilling sites by conducting geological surveys and analyzing data to determine the feasibility of extraction.

• Plan and oversee drilling operations, including the selection of drilling equipment, techniques, and schedules.

• Monitor and optimize production processes to maximize recovery rates and minimize operational costs.

• Implement and oversee enhanced oil recovery techniques, such as water flooding, gas injection, or chemical injection.

• Conduct reservoir simulations and modeling to predict future production and develop strategies for reservoir management.

• Collaborate with geologists, drilling engineers, and other specialists to ensure successful project execution.

• Ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations, implementing best practices to minimize environmental impact.

• Prepare detailed reports and documentation, including project plans, technical specifications, and production data.

• Stay updated on industry advancements, emerging technologies, and best practices in petroleum engineering.

Qualifications, Experience, and Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field; advanced degree or professional certification is advantageous.

• 8-7 years of experience in petroleum engineering within the oil and gas industry, including experience in the GCC region.

• Strong knowledge of drilling and extraction techniques, reservoir management, and production optimization.

• Proficiency in industry-specific software and tools for reservoir simulation, modeling, and data analysis (e.g., ECLIPSE, PETREL).

• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills for evaluating data and developing effective extraction strategies.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills for collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and stakeholders.

• Ability to work in challenging environments and adapt to changing project requirements.

• Commitment to safety, environmental stewardship, and regulatory compliance.

• Fluency in English; proficiency in additional languages, particularly Arabic, is beneficial.
