Reservoir Engineer

About the role

Based in Syria, the Reservoir Engineer provides reservoir‑engineering analysis and technical recommendations to maximize hydrocarbon recovery and support safe, economically sound development of ADES Production assets. The role integrates geological, petrophysical, pressure, PVT, well‑test and production data to understand reservoir performance, maintain forecasts, estimate reserves and identify development and production opportunities.

Key responsibilities

• Monitor reservoir performance using production, injection, pressure, well‑test and surveillance data, identifying trends, uncertainties, risks and recovery opportunities.
• Perform material‑balance, decline‑curve, pressure‑transient and rate‑transient analyses to assess reservoir behavior and well performance.
• Build and update reservoir models, complete history matching and generate production forecasts under alternative development and operating scenarios.
• Prepare and maintain reserves and resources estimates, supporting annual business plans, production targets, budgets and technical assurance reviews.
• Evaluate new wells, infill opportunities, recompletions, workovers, stimulation and injection options, ranking proposals on technical value, uncertainty and economics.
• Contribute to field‑development plans and surveillance programs and integrate recommendations with Geoscience, Production Technology, Drilling, Facilities, Operations and Economics teams.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Reservoir Engineering or a closely related discipline; a relevant master's degree is an advantage.
• 5‑8 years of upstream reservoir‑engineering experience across producing oil and/or gas assets, preferably including mature‑field development.
• Hands‑on experience in reservoir surveillance, simulation and history matching, reserves estimation, production forecasting and well‑opportunity evaluation.
• Proficiency in industry‑standard reservoir simulation, material‑balance and subsurface tools such as Eclipse/INTERSECT, CMG, Petrel, MBAL, OFM or equivalent.
• Strong analytical, uncertainty‑management and technical‑reporting skills, with fluency in Arabic and English and the ability to influence multidisciplinary decisions.
