Future projects could be working anywhere across the eastern hemisphere exploration portfolio.What you will deliver:As an exploration geologist you will:

Deliver integrated geological and geophysical descriptions and evaluations at regional, basin, play fairway, and prospect levels.
Deliver prospect and lead inventories.
Mature selected opportunities into detailed integrated prospect descriptions including assured, risked volumetric assessments.
Support well planning and well operations when drilling exploration prospects.
Integrate post-well results into subsurface models and undertake post-well evaluations.
