About the role

We are seeking experienced land seismic processing specialists (with 5+ years of industry experience) to join our growing and energetic project teams in delivering high-quality seismic services to the oil and gas industry. There is opportunity for long-term career progression and increasing responsibility as technical and project management skills develop. The successful candidate must be highly motivated to work in a fast-moving, high-tech environment, capable of working independently with careful attention to detail, and demonstrate initiative and problem-solving skills.

Experienced Geophysicists, together with the Team Manager, are expected to take on a technical leadership role within their project teams.

Responsibilities

• Prepare and ensure quality control of geosciences data to support land seismic processing and depth imaging projects.
• Perform seismic time processing and depth imaging of 2D and 3D land seismic data (from field data to final product), including design of processing flows, selection and testing of processing parameters, velocity interpretation, and model building.
• Prepare, run, and manage production workflows on the company computer system and resolve any issues that may arise during a production run.
• Conduct QA/QC of technical workflows, processing results, new/updated software and processing tools, client presentations, project documentation for team projects, and technical/QA/QC procedures.
