NexPro Energy is a fully integrated and capable of managing any oil and gas delivery project from start to finish - ranging from prospect identification to asset decommissioning and restoration. We are an independent exploration and production company with a growing upstream portfolio. Our immediate focus is an offshore marginal field in Nigeria preparing for first oil, and we are building the subsurface capability to carry it through development and producing life.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:

Job Title: Lead Reservoir Engineer

Location: Lagos

Responsibilities
Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will:

  • Own the reservoir engineering requirements for well data acquisition — formation pressure points, fluid sampling and well test design — and lead the interpretation that follows
  • Build and maintain the reservoir performance model through the Extended Well Test, and mature the reservoir understanding as the data set grows
  • Own the field's volumetric and resource basis, maturing contingent resources to reserves as commerciality is established
  • Take ownership of the production forecast and keep the field's economics and breakeven model aligned to it
  • Lead the reservoir engineering input into the post-first-oil Field Development Plan, and own reservoir management and surveillance through field life.

What we are looking for

  • Degree in Petroleum Engineering or a related discipline
  • 6+ years in reservoir engineering, including a well test or EWT interpretation, or a first-oil start-up
  • Resource and reserves classification under SPE-PRMS, including the commerciality tests that move volumes to reserves
  • Production forecasting tied into an economics model.

Questions about applying

They see your structured profile as it stands at the moment you apply, plus your CV if you have one attached. That snapshot is frozen - if you edit your profile next week, this application still shows what you sent today. Your salary expectation is never sent unless you choose to include it.
Yes. The match figure is for you, not for them - Ndano Energy does not see it. The apply button works the same regardless of your match percentage.
Because boards rewrite titles when they republish. All copies of this vacancy are the same job at the same employer with the same closing date. We show the employer's own wording and list the rest above so you know you have already seen it.
It appears in your application tracker straight away. Because this application is handled here rather than on an external site, you will see the status change as Ndano Energy moves it - viewed, shortlisted, interviewing or declined. Roles that redirect to an employer's own site cannot be tracked that way, and we say so on those listings.
This employer has not yet been checked against the corporate register. Regardless of any of that, no employer on this platform may ask you for money at any stage. If this one does, report it and tell us what they asked for.
