We’re up for the challenge. Are you?

*The position*
We are looking for a range of new team members to join our Subsurface division.

Your key tasks in planning and operations will include:
* Pore pressure and wellbore stability.
* Geohazards assessment and overburden evaluations.
* Geological prognosis.
* Data acquisition, including coring.
* Downhole understanding and risk assesment.

*You*

* Ability to work independently, with strong collaboration and communication skills.
* Open-mindedness, with a strong drive to embrace the potential of new digital technologies.
* Relevant Master’s degree or a Bachelor’s with extensive experience.
