  • Support and mentor geoscientists through knowledge sharing and technical coaching.
  • Partner with engineering and operations teams to optimize exploration drilling and execute successful drilling campaigns.
  • Collaborate closely with Apache teams in Houston and Cairo.

  • Bachelor's degree in Geology or Geophysics or related field required; Master's or Ph.D. degree preferred.
  • 10+ years relevant experience.
  • Expertise in fluvial to shallow marine clastic systems; Western Desert experience preferred.
  • Strong record of lead generation, prospect maturation, and hydrocarbon discovery.
  • Advanced seismic interpretation and well log/core integration skills using Petrel.
  • Experience with probabilistic volumetric assessments (Rose RA or similar).
  • Experienced in well planning, drilling operations, completions, and operational constraints.
  • Strong business acumen, including economic screening and value-of-information analysis.
  • Effective communicator with the ability to influence technical and business decisions.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership and mentoring experience.
Competencies

The successful candidate should demonstrate and exhibit the following core competencies:
  • Communication: Writes, speaks, and presents information effectively and persuasively across communication setting;
  • Results: Pursues work with energy, drive, and results orientation to positively impact Apache's business success;
