Full job description

Conduct data analysis, including QA/QC and conditioning of raw well log data (LAS files) using reproducible Python workflows. Load conditioned logs and associated well data to Petrel. Develop, train, validate, and apply machine-learning electrofacies classification models (bagging, boosting, SVM, ANN) using well-log-derived features; evaluate performance with appropriate metrics; load resulting output facies curves into Petrel.Collaborate with other BEG personnel to use geostatistical analysis and modeling to generate and distribute 3-D facies and property models within Petrel.Integrate model results to inform subsurface energy storage assessments, including capacity assessment, and risk-focused subsurface studies. Communicate technical results and project outcomes through peer-reviewed journal manuscripts, conference abstracts/proceedings and presentations, and updates to partners/stakeholders in meetings.
