Activities

Your main responsibilities will include:

• Characterizing source rocks, fluids, and petroleum systems.
• Interpreting geochemical, isotopic, and analytical datasets.
• Contributing to sedimentary basin modeling studies.
• Assessing hydrocarbon generation, migration, and accumulation processes.
• Performing oil-to-source rock correlations.
• Participating in exploration prospect charge risk assessment.
• Integrating geochemical, geological, and geophysical data.
• Contributing to the evaluation of exploration opportunities.
• Developing innovative characterization and modeling approaches.
• Working closely with geologists, geophysicists, and reservoir engineers.

Candidate Profile

You hold a PhD in Organic Geochemistry, Petroleum Geochemistry, Geology, or a related discipline , with 3 to 7 years of experience in industry or applied research.

You have:

• Proven experience in organic geochemistry.
• Experience in petroleum systems studies and charge risk assessment.
• Experience working with Rock-Eval data, biomarker geochemistry, and isotopic datasets.
• Knowledge of 1D, 2D, and/or 3D basin modeling.
• Experience integrating geochemical, geological, and geophysical data.
• Professional proficiency in English (C1 level).
• Willingness and ability to undertake national and international assignments.
