If this fantastic opportunity to work for one of the world's leading oil and gas operators. As a senior geophysicist, you will conduct evaluation and interpretation of seismic and well data, primarily prospect or field-specific work, that includes 3D interpretation, in order to locate exploration or development wells.

In this role you will interpret 3D and 2D seismic data to define exploration prospects or support field development activities including well location and earth model construction, therefore a familiarity with modern interpretation software would be beneficial for any candidate. You will also extract and interpret seismic attributes for use in exploration and development well positioning/earth model construction. You will also be involved with seismic processing and acquisition principles, guiding contractor reprocessing efforts on an occasional basis. As a senior member of the team, you will also be required to provide informal mentoring of less experienced geophysicists in geophysical techniques and principles.

You'll ideally have a post-graduate qualification (or equivalent) in geology or geophysics, along with substantial industry experience in 3D seismic volume interpretation. You will be able to demonstrate your expertise in sequence stratigraphy, and advanced volume interpretation techniques. You will also be able to demonstrate successful geophysical interpretation support for exploration and development drilling. Experience with data acquisition, quality control, and interpretation of resistivity logs will also be required for this role.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work for a leading company which offers great career opportunities and personal growth opportunities within the company's global operations.
