About this Opportunity

Cenovus is currently seeking a highly skilled Reservoir Optimization Engineer to join our Thermal Reservoir Optimization team in Calgary. Reporting to the Manager, Reservoir Optimization FCCL, your primary role will be to analyze well and reservoir operating data and implement specific strategies to improve reservoir performance.

As a key member of our Reservoir Optimization team, you will work closely with a multi-disciplinary team of geoscientists and production engineers to optimize a group of pads. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Collaborating with Pad Teams to action opportunities to improve conformance, reduce SOR, increase production and recovery, and minimize the impacts of bottom water and thief zones.
  • Coordinating performance evaluations on assigned base pads, including production comparisons to forecasts, supervising recovery over time, and sharing knowledge of key observations and findings.
  • Supporting the development and history match of models to understand and forecast pad performance, identifying and evaluating potential beneficial optimization opportunities such as operating strategy refinement, well placement, SOR management, and ramp-down or blowdown strategies.
  • Evaluating redrill opportunities on assigned operating pads, developing forecasts and economic evaluations to support those candidates.
  • Providing feedback and validating base pad forecasts on assigned operating pads.
  • Identifying and advancing studies and field trials to optimize performance continuously, supporting operating strategy advancement and technology progression. This includes crafting a learning plan, analyzing results, conducting lookback analysis to detail key takeaways, and transitioning to commercialization where applicable.
  • Collaborating with Geology & Geophysics, Production, Reservoir Development, Drilling & Completions, Facility & Process Engineering, and Projects teams.
Requirements

To be successful in this role, you will have:

  • A Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) accreditation with APEGA.
  • A minimum of 4+ years of experience with prior experience on commercially operating SAGD assets.
  • A solid understanding of reservoir simulation, preferably with experience in thermal simulation software packages such as CVE Sapsim or CMG STARS.
  • Confirmed capacity to learn new concepts quickly and work towards continuous improvement.
  • Ability to process large amounts of information from different sources.
  • Excellent collaboration, communication, organization, and time management skills.
  • Experience programming in one or more languages, such as Python, SQL, R, VBA, or Matlab.
