About The Role

The successful candidate will be assigned a project within an area of interest to be supervised by a senior member of the Reservoir Engineering Team. The Subsurface Engineering Intern will support the daily and monthly processes used to track, validate, allocate, and report oil, gas, and water production and injection for the newest oil field in Alaska. This role provides handson exposure to the full productionvolume lifecycle—from wellhead measurement through gathering systems and facility balances to final sales reporting.

The intern will work closely with Reservoir Engineers, Facilities Engineers, Land, Technical Services and Production Accounting to ensure production data is accurate, timely, and aligned with operational realities in the field.

This is an excellent opportunity for an engineering student interested in reservoir engineering, production engineering, petroleum engineering data workflows, or production accounting systems in the upstream oil & gas industry.

What The Intern Will Learn

• Learn how to use industry software OFM for production tracking, Petex suite and learn how to build visualizations in PowerBI.
• How volumes move from the wellhead to sales and how allocation ties the two together.
• The relationship between allocation engineering, production engineering, measurement, operations, and accounting.
• How allocation accuracy impacts financial reporting and engineering analysis.
• Handson exposure to real operational challenges in a producing asset during field start up.
• Comparison of production expectations vs actuals and short term forecasting.
