HRSI is looking for Production Engineer for one of its leading client.

Key Responsibilities

1. Integrated Well Analysis & Modelling:

• Conduct detailed production analyses of candidate wells.
• Perform wellbore modelling using PROSPER to evaluate fluid behaviour, pressure losses, and flow performance.
• Develop and analyse network models using GAP to assess system constraints, backpressure effects, and well interdependencies.

2. Production Optimization:

• Evaluate existing well completions and recommend choke size optimization for improved flow efficiency.
• Analyse and optimize flowline configurations to reduce pressure losses and enhance productivity.
• Propose alternative completion strategies tailored to specific well conditions.

3. Water Management in Gas Wells:

• Develop and implement de-liquidation strategies for gas wells with high water cut to sustain and enhance gas production.

4. Water Shut-Off & Intervention Strategies:

• Identify water production sources using PLT and well log data.
• Recommend suitable shut-off techniques, including mechanical and chemical solutions, based on well diagnostics and available technologies.

5. Stimulation & Treatment Optimization:

• Review historical stimulation activities and validate proposed acid treatment designs.
• Recommend advanced stimulation techniques aligned with reservoir characteristics and global best practices.

6. Well Intervention Planning:

• Design and execute cost-effective rigless intervention programs to minimize downtime.
• Develop contingency plans to ensure successful execution under varying field conditions.

7. Workover Program Development:

• Prepare detailed workover programs, including equipment selection and risk mitigation strategies.
• Plan completion and testing programs for re-entry and complex wells.

8. Artificial Lift System (ALS) Optimization:

• Evaluate and optimize existing ALS systems (ESP, Rod Lift, PCP, Jet Pump, Gas Lift, etc.).
• Improve operational efficiency, reduce power consumption, and enhance production stability.
• Recommend appropriate lift systems for low-producing wells to maximize recovery.

9. Well Chemistry & Flow Assurance:

• Identify and optimize chemical treatments for stimulation, de-liquidation, and condensate management.
• Ensure compatibility of chemical solutions with reservoir and wellbore conditions.
• Collaborate with local and international vendors to source effective chemical technologies.

10. Field Execution & Supervision:

• Provide technical oversight during rigless interventions and rig-based workovers.
• Ensure execution aligns with approved strategies and monitor performance metrics.
• Continuously refine processes based on field results and operational feedback.

Experience

• Minimum 10–15+ years of experience in Production / Petroleum Engineering within upstream oil & gas operations.
• Proven experience managing multi-asset or brownfield mature assets, including depleted, shut-in, and high water cut wells.
• Extensive hands-on experience in:
• Artificial Lift Systems design and evaluation (ESP, Gas Lift, Rod Pump, PCP, Jet Pump)
• Well interventions (rig and rigless operations)
• Production optimization and surveillance
• Exposure to international operations (Middle East, North America, Africa, or Asia) and working with multinational teams and service providers is preferred.
• Experience in production forecasting and field development planning is an advantage.

Education

• Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering (mandatory).
• Master's degree in a relevant discipline (preferred).
• Professional affiliations/certifications (preferred):
• Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
• PMP or equivalent project management certification (advantage)
• IWCF / Well Control certification (advantage)

Technical Skills:

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work on complex production systems.
• Able to present complex technical concepts to management and non-technical stakeholders.

Other Requirements:

• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to present technical information to diverse audiences.
• Ability to work independently as well as in a team environment.
