Petroleum Engineer

We are looking for an analytical petroleum engineer to assist with the location of natural petroleum reservoirs and to devise the best methods of extraction. The petroleum engineer's responsibilities include discovering new petroleum reservoirs, developing cost-efficient, effective methods of petroleum recovery, extracting and producing oil and gas from underground reservoirs, and developing new ways to extract oil and gas from older reservoirs.

To be a successful petroleum engineer, you should have strong mathematical, analytical, and problem-solving skills. You should have an in-depth knowledge of extraction techniques and principles, and be willing to travel to and live in possibly harsh and unfriendly locations.

Petroleum Engineer Responsibilities:

• Analyzing, interpreting, and monitoring the geological formation data to ascertain the extraction risks and the best methods of extraction.
• Using surveys, testing, and analysis to evaluate new reservoirs to determine profits and to create low-cost drilling and extraction plans.
