The Organisation
The incumbent will report directly to Team Lead – Walloons/Aquifer Modelling, under the leadership of the Manager Reservoir Engineering. Their peers include other relevant subsurface asset based staff, non-subsurface team members and relevant BG Advance specialists | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Position Summary
To provide expert groundwater and CSG reservoir modelling, via integration of hydrogeological and pressure monitoring data with CSG production & development data, whilst adhering to all BG Subsurface Policies and Standards | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Key Accountabilities
Position Specific
· Accountable, in conjunction with the Team Lead – Walloons/Aquifer Modelling, for defining and delivering groundwater/CSG modelling work scopes, incorporating all (hydro)geological and reservoir dynamic uncertainties
· Leads development of groundwater dynamic models (coupled with CSG models) for the QCLNG development areas to support GEN3 and subsequent QGC regional groundwater impact studies
· Provides liaison with hydro-geologists, CSG geo-modellers and Reservoir Engineers in the CSG Simulation (field development planning) team
· Provides expert advice on up-scaling of core, laboratory, reservoir and well log data to capture dynamic uncertainty in regional and production scale simulation models of the Walloons-aquifer interface
· Provides analysis of bore level, monitoring and pumping test data
· Provides quality control and analysis of aquifer & Walloons pressure gauge data acquired during the Reservoir Surveillance (core monitor conversion) programme
· Provides history match analysis of CSG, waterbore and monitoring gauge data where required
· Provides expert advice on groundwater modelling techniques to asset staff and management
· Ensures groundwater models are fit for purpose and of high quality.
People Management
· The incumbent must adhere to the annual HR cycle and meet deadlines within the appropriate timeframes
Health Safety Security and Environment (HSSE)
