Engineering Jobs. WTS Energy Jobs
Key Responsibilities:
- Monitor and analyze well and field production performance, ensuring accurate production data validation, anomaly detection, and implementation of corrective actions.
- Perform nodal analysis, well deliverability assessments, and decline curve analysis to support production forecasting and operational decision-making.
- Design, select, and optimize artificial lift systems including ESP, PCP, gas lift, and rod pump systems, and provide troubleshooting support to improve performance.
- Support production testing activities (PLT/IFT), interpret results, and integrate findings into production and reservoir performance models.
- Provide technical support for well intervention planning, completion reviews, and execution of workover activities as production engineering lead.
- Diagnose and resolve well performance issues such as scale, sand production, wax, corrosion, water breakthrough, and flow instability.
- Collaborate with facilities and operations teams to optimize surface constraints, choke management, and overall production system performance.
- Maintain and update production models, forecasting tools, dashboards, and technical reports to support management and operational planning.
- Lead root-cause analysis investigations for production losses, equipment failures, and operational inefficiencies, and implement reliability improvement initiatives.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives aimed at increasing production efficiency, reducing downtime, and optimizing lifecycle asset performance.
- Mentor junior production engineers and contribute to the development of engineering standards, procedures, and HSSEQ compliance practices.
- Perform any other duties as assigned in support of production operations and optimization activities.
Qualifications:
