The Production Technologist role is ideal for an individual who is technical, value oriented and motivated to contribute to a high-quality business.

- ‘Perform’ the WRFM process for the FPSO assets - support the assets in developing a WRFM philosophy/strategy, operationalising WRFM excellence, conducting performance and work effectiveness reviews and sharing best practices across Shell UK
- Mature well intervention opportunities in line with the End to End well intervention delivery process; QC assumptions, embed scenario thinking as part of concept select, deliver well activity proposals and support well intervention activities during execution. Ensure key operational data is correctly recorded and made available to key stakeholders
- Undertake daily well performance to ensure safe and optimum well production, facility surveillance support, and provide support as required for deep dives (for example flow assurance conformance)
- Influence the well & reservoir surveillance strategy, regularly assess well integrity performance against the Shell Standard and highlight any gaps for improvement
- Provide support to the “Zone owner” for PT in the FPSO Assert (i.e. Principal Production Technologist) - as a technical integrator in the PT domain. Able to pull on and leverage the technical expertise available within Shell
- Support credible production forecasts and business planning (short, mid, and long term) that integrate subsurface technical, and threats and opportunities, with insights sourced from quality analysis, benchmarking and assumptions informed through effective engagement and collaboration with the integrated teams
