Job Summary
Principal Geologist/3D Geomodeler
Delivering HighQuality Subsurface Models Through Advanced Geological & Geophysical Integration
Transforming Reservoir Understanding with Multidisciplinary Technical Excellence
Partner with the best
Baker Hughes is a global energy technology company operating in more than 120 countries. Our Subsurface & Geoscience teams drive value by integrating geological geophysical petrophysical and engineering insights to support reservoir development resource evaluation and energy transition initiatives. With a focus on technical rigor and digital enablement we deliver subsurface models and interpretations that guide strategic development decisions and reduce subsurface uncertainty.
Fuel your passion
The Principal Geologist/3D Geomodeler plays a key technical role in developing highquality fitforpurpose 3D static reservoir models. You will integrate diverse subsurface datasets perform seismic interpretation assess uncertainty and support volumetrics reserves evaluations and field development planning. This role requires strong technical proficiency and the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams while clearly communicating insights and subsurface risks.
As a Principal Geologist/3D Geomodeler you will be responsible for:
Building and maintaining 3D static reservoir models (structural facies petrophysical and geocellular) integrating geological geophysical and petrophysical data.
Developing subsurface frameworks including horizons faults structural frameworks stratigraphic layering and reservoir architecture.
Performing scenariobased and uncertaintydriven modeling to capture structural and stratigraphic variations.
Conducting depth conversion workflows and integrating seismic attributes into geomodeling processes.
Interpreting 2D/3D seismic datasets including horizons faults seismic facies and structural elements.
Integrating seismic inversion AVO/AVA and seismicderived attributes to improve reservoir quality assessment and geobody identification.
Supporting depth imaging QC and conditioning seismic and geophysical data for modeling workflows.
Collaborating with geophysicists and petrophysicists on seismictowell ties elastic property interpretation and data integration.
Providing robust static models and key inputs for dynamic simulation studies.
Supporting field development planning reserves evaluation volumetrics generation and prospect maturation.
Performing deterministic and probabilistic STOIIP/OGIP calculations and supporting uncertainty quantification efforts.
Contributing to well planning drilling support and operational subsurface decisionmaking.
Advising and engaging with internal and external clients on technical delivery project updates and commercial opportunities
To be successful in this role you will:
Have a degree in Geoscience Geophysics Earth Science or a related discipline (Masters preferred).
Have 5 years of experience in geomodeling seismic interpretation or integrated subsurface analysis.
Have strong proficiency with geomodeling and seismic interpretation software such as Petrel Kingdom JewelSuite RMS or similar platforms.
Have a deep understanding of reservoir architecture integrated subsurface workflows and uncertainty modeling.
Have excellent communication skills with the ability to convey technical insights and uncertainty to multidisciplinary teams.
Demonstrate strong written and verbal communication abilities and an ability to collaborate effectively.
Have experience leading or managing technical components of projects (a strong advantage).
