Senior Geophysicist

Who We Are.

We are a global marine geoscience and technology business. We are pioneers using ground-breaking technology to study what lies beneath the ocean floor. We help energy companies plan ahead, accelerating responsible use of the planet’s resources. We provide marine seismic data, imaging products and data processing software. Our teams offer unparalleled acquisition capability to our clients, providing them with the tools they need to reduce exploration risks and maximise their production efficiency.

Can you be a key contributor to our processing and imaging projects?

We’re looking for a Senior Geophysicist to join our Processing and Imaging team in Houston.

You’ll be responsible for the execution of seismic data processing and QC tasks assigned to you, working closely with other team members to ensure projects are delivered to high standards in a timely manner, with the client’s requirements as a critical focus.

Technically speaking…

You’ll have a degree in Geophysics, Physics or similar science related subject.

You’ve worked with marine, OBN and/or land seismic data and have experience in one or more of pre-processing, velocity model building, and depth imaging.

You pay attention to detail and have strong parameter testing and data QC skills.

In personal terms…

You will work closely with both clients and colleagues, so the ability to communicate effectively both, in writing and in person is essential.

You work well as part of a team but take ownership and can work independently where it counts.

You’ll be trusted to make decisions so if there’s a challenge, you approach it with sharp thinking and a practical solution.

You’re eager to expand your technical skills, always looking for opportunities to broaden your geophysical knowledge and understanding.
