What role you will play in our team
We are seeking dynamic, creative, and resourceful candidates for our Bengaluru, India location to work on challenging reservoir quality characterization projects in collaboration with multidisciplinary teams of geologists, petrophysicists, geophysicists, and reservoir engineers across ExxonMobil’s global portfolio.
You will apply sedimentological, petrographic, diagenetic, and basin modeling techniques to evaluate reservoir quality, storage capacity, and fluid flow behavior in subsurface formations. The ideal candidate will integrate petrography, core, cuttings, well log, and seismic data to develop robust reservoir quality models that support exploration, development, production, and low-carbon initiatives such as Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS).
What You Will Do
Define project objectives, work scopes, and deliverables in collaboration with ExxonMobil’s global Reservoir Quality community and Business Units.
Analyze sediment properties, depositional facies, textures, and sedimentary structures to reconstruct depositional environments and reservoir evolution.
Perform thin section descriptions, petrographic analysis, and point counting to identify mineralogy, textures, pore systems, and diagenetic features impacting reservoir quality.
Evaluate porosity, permeability, and diagenetic controls within sedimentary facies and integrate findings with reservoir performance and production data.
Conduct 1D basin modeling studies to predict reservoir quality evolution and property changes under varying burial and subsurface conditions.
Integrate reservoir quality datasets, including cores, cuttings, petrographic data, well logs, and seismic interpretations, to understand structural and stratigraphic controls on reservoir properties.
Develop and maintain reservoir quality models that characterize heterogeneity and support geological, petrophysical, and reservoir simulation workflows.
Provide critical reservoir quality insights to optimize well placement, field development planning, and long-term reservoir management strategies.
Evaluate, quality check, and interpret petrographic and reservoir quality reports from external laboratories and vendors.
Collaborate closely with petrophysicists, geophysicists, reservoir engineers, and other geoscience disciplines to build integrated subsurface models.
Apply reservoir quality workflows and geological characterization methodologies to low-carbon opportunities, including Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects.
Support the development, testing, and implementation of new reservoir quality workflows, tools, and technologies to improve efficiency and consistency across projects globally.
About You
Skills and Qualifications
Master’s degree (or equivalent/higher) with a minimum GPA of 6.5 or equivalent from a recognized university in Geology, Earth Sciences, Petroleum Geoscience, or related disciplines.
Minimum 3 years of industry experience in reservoir quality evaluation, sedimentology, petrography, or related subsurface characterization activities supporting upstream oil and gas operations.
Strong understanding of sedimentary geology, depositional systems, diagenesis, and pore-network evolution in conventional and unconventional reservoirs.
Hands-on experience with core description, petrographic analysis, thin section interpretation, and point counting techniques.
Experience integrating reservoir quality datasets with well logs, seismic data, and reservoir performance information.
Working knowledge of basin modeling and reservoir quality prediction workflows.
Experience using industry-standard software such as Touchstone, PetroMod or equivalent geological and basin modeling applications.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to synthesize complex geological datasets into actionable reservoir insights.
Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary global teams and take ownership of deliverables.
Experience supporting Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects or other low-carbon subsurface applications is desirable.
Knowledge of statistical methods, data analytics, programming, or machine learning is an added advantage.
Proficiency in English.
