Strike Energy Ltd is seeking a Senior Reservoir Engineer to join our team in West Perth. This is a key role responsible for providing reservoir engineering expertise across exploration, appraisal and development activities.
Reporting to the General Manager of Subsurface, you will provide reservoir engineering expertise, ensuring high-quality, traceable and timely technical evaluations that support commercial, operational and investment decision-making.
Key Responsibilities
Support reservoir engineering activities across exploration, appraisal and development projects, providing technical input to support business growth and investment decisions.
Develop and maintain integrated reservoir-to-surface models using tools such as Prosper, MBAL, GAP, Eclipse or equivalent software to evaluate development concepts and optimise field performance.
Prepare, review and technically assure reservoir engineering inputs to Field Development Plans (FDPs), including forecasts, assumptions, uncertainties and development recommendations.
Support resource and reserves evaluations through reservoir modelling, recovery factor assessments and EUR estimates in accordance with PRMS guidelines.
Coordinate annual Reserves and Resources reporting in collaboration with Subsurface and Exploration teams.
Monitor production performance, identify variances against forecast, integrate production data into reservoir models and recommend optimisation opportunities.
Conduct deterministic and probabilistic uncertainty analyses and risk assessments to support reserves bookings, development planning and investment decisions.
Provide reservoir characterisation inputs, including PVT, pressure and permeability data, to support static and dynamic modelling activities.
Support drilling, completions and well evaluation programs through interpretation of logging and production test data and definition of reservoir engineering data requirements.
Prepare and communicate high-quality reservoir engineering analyses and recommendations for compliance reporting, Joint Venture partners, management and Board presentations.
About You
To be successful in this role, you will have:
10+ years' experience in oil and gas exploration, appraisal and development.
A tertiary qualification in Petroleum Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
Demonstrated experience applying PRMS principles to resource and reserves classification, estimation, reporting and documentation.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to evaluate technical data and make sound recommendations.
Proven ability to communicate complex technical concepts and build alignment with internal stakeholders and Joint Venture partners.
Sound understanding of prospect and lead evaluation, asset management, uncertainty analysis and risking methodologies.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience preparing technical reports and presentations for a range of audiences.
What You'll Need
Ability to manage multiple priorities and consistently deliver high-quality outcomes within agreed timeframes.
Experience working autonomously while collaborating effectively within a small, multidisciplinary team.
A methodical, process-driven approach with strong attention to detail.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, including Excel, Word, SharePoint, Power BI and Outlook.
Advanced experience with reservoir engineering and simulation software, including Petroleum Experts' Integrated Production Modelling suite (Prosper, MBAL, GAP), Petrel RE, INTERSECT and Eclipse.
Apply now and play a key role in advancing our exploration and development portfolio, delivering the reservoir engineering insights that support critical technical and commercial decisions.
