Subsurface Manager 101-190 – Oman

Oil and Gas World Jobs — Mon, 04 May 2009 15:31:37 +0000

General
Our client is a Swedish independent oil and natural gas company, operator of Block 15 onshore Oman. The block is located in the northern part of the prolific Omani oil basin. During the second quarter of this year, one of two exploratory wells drilled in the mid nineties was reentered and sidetracked. Two sidetracks penetrated two separate reservoirs, the deeper Shuaiba and the shallower Natih reservoirs. Both sidetracks encountered gas. The shallower Natih reservoir was extensively flow tested and has now proved up what appears to be commercial quantities of hydrocarbons.

Our client has embarked on an aggressive schedule to commence commercial production from the Jebel Aswad discovery, and hence we are now looking for suitably experienced high level management personnel to form part of the nucleus of the development management team. These are ‘hands on’ positions requiring a lot of the detailed work to be undertaken by the incumbents. Procrastinators need not apply.

Project Description
Jebel Aswad is estimated to contain commercial quantities of wet gas. The gas-condensate ratio is estimated at 100 bbl / mmscfpd or greater. The structure will be developed by drilling long horizontal wells through the prospective limestone reservoirs. It is envisaged that some of the wells may be multi laterals requiring dual completions. The anticipated plateau field production is pegged at 50 mmscfpd.. A total of 5 – 7 additional wells may be required to tap this gas/condensate discovery.

Produced fluids (gas and condensate) will be processed on site before being exported in separate pipelines. A purpose built gas processing plant will therefore be required to be manufactured. It is envisaged that this gas processing plant shall also process future discoveries, should there be any, on the block. Further excellent exploration potential exists on the block.

Subsurface Manager
Our client requires an energetic Subsurface Manager who will have overall responsibility for all events beneath the surface. The incumbent shall also be in charge of all further exploratory work for the Company and the block including the acquisition of 3D seismic. Nevertheless, the key focus of the incumbent must be to develop a roadmap for understanding and relaying the secrets of the Jebel Aswad structure. He/She will work very closely with the Drilling Team to ensure that all wells are placed optimally on the structure and hence it is vital that the incumbent has a strong ‘development geology’ background.

The incumbent Subsurface Manager shall have previous management experience with a strong focus on development geology and reserve certification. He/She must have working knowledge of geophysics to be able to acquire geophysical information to enhance hydrocarbon production. He/She must also be able to lead several subcontractors and provide solid results on a short time frame. Previous experience in the Middle East is definitely a bonus, although not critical. It is more important that the incumbent is a team player and understands the importance of solid developmental geology.

The incumbent shall be willing to travel extensively and live in either Dubai or Muscat. He/she shall also preferably be single or with no children in schooling age.
