Elysian is currently seeking a

Vice President, Storage Engineering

to lead efforts to define, initiate, and

mature subsurface carbon storage opportunities identified by our team. We are looking for an intelligent,

flexible and hard-working individual to join our entrepreneurial culture. Elysian offers competitive pay and

benefits and a positive, supportive, virtual and collaborative work environment.

Role Summary

The role will lead and participate in efforts to develop, plan, permit and ultimately operate

economic carbon storage opportunities in North America. The position directs and conducts the subsurface

activities of the company. This includes managing contractors through the full project lifecycle, from initial

site evaluation to operations management, and includes development of (or overseeing the development of)

reservoir models that both describe CO2 movement in the subsurface and predict ultimate injection capacity

while assuring permanent storage. In addition, as a critical member of a development team, the position is

expected to perform non-subsurface functions that will advance company priorities.

Primary Responsibilities

- Reservoir Management: Lead a multi-disciplined effort to mature identified CO2 storage

opportunities, including developing and/or overseeing development of effective flow models to

describe CO2 plumes, area of review, and storage mechanisms. Using and/or supervising the use of

dynamic flow simulations to perform sensitivity analysis, optimize well count and placement, and

estimate pore space requirements. Duties include coordinating geoscientists, engineers and

consultants to develop accurate geologic and flow models. Lead de-risking efforts, scenario planning

and development optimization.

- Regulatory Applications: Lead and supervise development of EPA Class VI or equivalent applications

to ensure complete reservoir-related interpretations are included and development plans are

presented accurately, including participation and leading efforts in responding to regulatory agencies

throughout the permitting process. Develop cost effective storage monitoring plans.

- Well Planning and Drilling Support: Develop and recommend testing plans for characterization and

development wells for specific storage sites. Primary Elysian point of contract for drilling consultants

that would manage all drilling-related activities.

- Project Development Planning: Lead all subsurface budgeting and planning efforts, including the

sequence of activity and costs of all subsurface infrastructure, from screening to post injection site

care (PISC). Provide technical input regarding overall project planning, risk mitigation, and

operational strategies, including working with financial-focused teammates in the company to

develop realistic project and cost schedules.

- Site Screening: Working with the storage team (internal and consultants), use best available data to

perform regional/basin level screening to quickly determine storage potential with a focus on

storage capacity, injectability, seal interval integrity and seismicity. Recommend and justify

additional data acquisition as needed.

- Commercial and business development: Possess a working knowledge of commercial considerations

for the CCS value chain, with an appreciation of the importance of capital efficiency regarding

storage in the larger context of capture, transportation and storage. Will support management in

development of responses to formal requests for proposals.

Position Requirements

- Education: Minimum of bachelor’s degree in petroleum engineering or closely related discipline - Experience: Minimum of 12 years of reservoir engineering work experience (20+ years preferred); but

candidates with minimum of 4 years of direct CCS experience are encouraged to apply regardless of years of non-CCS experience.

- Experience with vertical and surface flow models for equipment sizing

- Knowledge and use of reservoir data types for input to flow models (eg. core data, logs, pressure transient analysis

- Familiarity with CCS industry and knowledge of Class VI permitting process and regulation

- Familiarity with geologic static modeling methods and software

- Project management and team leader experience, including operative understanding of

economic metrics including net present value concepts

- Experience with drilling of wells is preferred, and experience with drilling or operations of

injection or monitoring wells a plus

Technical Skills

- Familiarity with compositional flow modeling software (eg. CMG, TNavigator, Eclipse)

- Ability to interpret results of flow models and communicate results to the subsurface team

and stakeholders

- Familiarity with GIS and its use (eg. ArcGIS, QGIS)

- Geochemical modeling capability a plus, but not required

Travel Requirements

- Minimal (10%-15%)

Certificates & Licenses

- Registered Professional Engineer (PE) a plus, but not required

Other Skills, Attributes And Abilities

- Creative, motivated individual accustomed to working remotely in a multi-disciplined team

- Proficient in Microsoft Office

- Must be a detail oriented, self-motivated, project delivery focused candidate capable of leading

teams as well as directly contributing to essential work products

- Possess an ability to deliver and present complex reservoir concepts to diverse groups, as excellent

Collaboration And Communication Skills Are Required

- Ability to prioritize assignments, deal with interruptions, and meet deadlines in a fast paced and

growth-oriented environment

Essential Function Requirements

- Ability to safely and successfully perform essential job functions consistent with ADA, FMLA and

other federal, state and local standards, including meeting qualitative and or/quantitative productivity standards

- Ability to maintain regular, punctual attendance consistent with the ADA, FMLA and other federal,

state and local standards

- Compliance with all personnel policies
