Job Accountabilities:

An experienced geophysicist responsible for seismic reservoir characterization and seismic interpretation projects for integrated reservoir study and well placement. Should possess advanced expertise in geophysics with a deep understanding and working experience of seismic data analysis and inversion techniques to provide insights into subsurface reservoir properties. Adheres to RIL business plan with 100% compliance on HSE and core V&Bs of RIL.

Seismic Inversion and reservoir characterization: Utilize cutting edge geophysical techniques and software for generating inversion products and attributes for characterizing reservoir; Identify Rock Physics Modelling (RPM) strategy, Generate RPM/RPT; Perform/review well to seismic tie & extract wavelets for seismic inversion; Perform fluid and lithology substitution; Perform cross plot and EI analysis; Select attribute for fluid/ lithology; Perform synthetic modelling - Prepare Zero-offset & offset Synthetics in both in-situ and what-if situations; Compare Synthetics with Seismic data; Identify processing requirements for seismic reservoir characterization; Provide inputs on Inversion strategy (post-stack, pre-stack, elastic, coloured, GI etc); Perform Seismic Inversion; Generate net to gross, porosity, lithology etc. volume as required; Generate AVO/DHI attributes; check consistency of attributes with RPM; Risk-uncertainty analysis of seismic inversion and reservoir characterization.

Seismic Interpretation and Integration: Perform seismic interpretation and integration of well and associated data; Perform/review surgical interpretation of horizon and faults; Perform well-seismic tie, Synthetic Seismogram generation; Review/generate maps to understand structural and stratigraphic aspects; Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to integrate seismic data with geological and petrophysical information; Perform attribute analyses; Perform seismic blueing to enhance data; Perform/Review quantitative interpretation using Seismic Inversion, AVO attributes; Perform velocity modelling for depth conversion; Compute volumetric estimation; Capture Risk elements; QC seismic acquisition, processing/reprocessing projects in association with functional team; Provide inputs and interface with key stakeholders for static model building.

Well placement and planning: Plan and Optimize well placement; perform Appraisal, development and In-fill well planning using the appropriate seismic attribute volumes; Prepare well prognosis, targets & trajectory; Analyze for shallow hazards; characterization of overburden for well placement; Provide inputs to well planning and interact with drilling/operations; Recommend data acquisition requirements during drilling.

Provide inputs for DoC/ Appraisal Plan/ Field Development Plan(FDP): Provide inputs for Integrated Sub-Surface Description; Provide inputs for Appraisal Program; Execute Appraisal Activities including seismic API and well; Perform Resource Assessment; Provide inputs for appraisal and ML areas; Provide inputs for preparation of Declaration of Commerciality (DoC); Perform reservoir connectivity analysis to identify connectivity between sands, perm barriers & their impact on reservoir depletion scheme; Interact with Exploration, Projects and FC&A for Techno-economic analysis; Provide inputs for preparation and implementation of FDP in consultation with key stakeholders.

Stakeholder & People Management: Prepare stage gate documents; Conduct Knowledge sharing sessions; Present to management, JV partners, regulatory authorities as required; Capture key learnings, Ensure safety as per HSE guidelines; Comply with PSC/JOA and statutory requirements.

Skill & Competencies:
