Job Summary
Provide technical leadership in production engineering and well performance to optimize hydrocarbon recovery, improve uptime and support safe, cost-effective field operations. Lead deliverables on production surveillance, artificial lift, well performance diagnostics and production enhancement studies, and guide multidisciplinary interventions.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead production surveillance and well performance monitoring programs; analyse production data, identify underperforming wells and recommend remedial actions.
- Design and optimise artificial lift systems (ESP, PCP, gas lift, rod lift) and surface/subsurface completions to maximise production and reliability.
- Perform nodal analysis, well deliverability studies, inflow/outflow modelling and production decline forecasting to support operational decisions and planning.
- Diagnose well performance issues (scaling, sand, paraffin, corrosion, water cut increase) and define intervention scopes (workovers, stimulations, well tests).
- Develop and manage production test programs, including PLT/IFT execution, interpretation and integration with reservoir models.
- Support completion design and well intervention planning, providing technical input to well proposals, risk assessments and execution plans.
- Optimise choke and surface facility settings, collaborate with production operations and facilities to resolve constraints and improve throughput.
- Lead failure/root-cause analyses for downhole and surface equipment, drive corrective actions and reliability improvement initiatives.
- Manage production data quality, dashboards and reporting; provide timely technical reports and recommendations to asset and executive stakeholders.
- Mentor junior production technologists and engineers; develop technical standards, best practices and training materials.
- Evaluate and trial new production technologies (scale inhibitors, downhole sensors, digital monitoring, chemical treatments) and lead value-engineering initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with HSE, well integrity and regulatory requirements for production operations and interventions.
Qualifications
- Degree in Petroleum Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or related technical discipline.
- 10+ years’ experience in production engineering/technologist roles with progressive responsibility; experience across artificial lift and well intervention preferred.
