Senior Reservoir Engineer – Hybrid

The Opportunity

The Alberta Geological Survey (AGS) Branch of the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) is currently looking for a Senior Reservoir Engineer to join the Subsurface Geology and Geohazards team. The Senior Reservoir Engineer will collaborate with senior geologists to offer technical support in reservoir engineering for the characterization of oil and gas reserves, resources, and the geological pore space management program. The latter includes evaluation of reservoir properties related to disposal operations including carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS).

The role requires a deep understanding of reservoir engineering – the nexus of static rock properties with dynamic properties such as fluid type and pressure as a function of operations at the well-bore and reservoir scale. A key responsibility involves collaborating with geologists, seismologists, and geophysicists to support induced seismicity investigations. This role requires applying expertise to solve complex, poorly understood subsurface problems, fostering open collaboration, teamwork, and a commitment to continuous improvement. The Senior Reservoir Engineer will take a lead role in providing technical support and mentorship to staff across the organization and will be responsible for conducting technical reviews and offering constructive feedback to other technical experts.
