Geoscientist - Offshore Well Delivery

About the role

TotalEnergies is looking for a Geoscientist to join its Subsurface Well Delivery team at an offshore operator in Denmark. The role has high visibility in active drilling, intervention, workover and abandonment campaigns on mature, high-complexity assets, with exposure to long horizontal and extended-reach wells. It is a regular local position in Esbjerg.

Key responsibilities

• Support planning, execution and close-out of well delivery, workover and abandonment operations.
• Plan, prepare, supervise and interpret LWD, open-hole and cased-hole wireline log data so that it supports operational decisions.
• Coordinate with stakeholders (2G&R, Drilling, Well Services and Decommissioning) to align subsurface inputs, priorities and timelines; this may occasionally involve unsocial hours.
• Identify, justify and formulate data acquisition plans and operational programs with other teams and external vendors.
• Assist with pore pressure prediction and integrate geomechanical data into operational plans.
• Outline geosteering strategy and support well placement optimization with operations and well-site geologists.
• Provide petrophysical input to production optimization and infill well opportunities.
• Document lessons learned, evaluate vendor performance and maintain consistent data deliverables and interpretation standards.

Required profile

• MSc in Petroleum Engineering, Geophysics or Petroleum Geology.

• Strong geological understanding, or willingness to develop it.
• Experience in wireline and LWD log acquisition and interpretation of horizontal wellbores, and in subsurface operations planning and execution.
• Experience in well operations or well delivery, with good teamwork and communication skills.
• Prior exposure to geosteering in carbonates and knowledge of pore pressure prediction, geomechanics, well interventions and abandonment is desirable.

Required skills

• Proficiency with Geolog, Techlog and Petrel.

What we offer

• Base salary range of DKK 725,250 to 967,000 per year.
