Let me tell you about the role

bp has been selected by Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) to act as the Technical Services Provider (TSP) for the Mumbai High Field, India’s largest and most prolific offshore oil field that liesapproximately 160-kilometersinto the Arabian Sea off the Mumbai coast. The Mumbai High oil field was discovered in February 1974 and started production on May 21, 1976. It accounts for almost 25% of India's production.

As the TSP, bp will conduct a comprehensive review of the field’s performance andidentifyimprovements as well as implement suitable technological interventions and practices for improving production and recovery from this important national resource. bp will serve in an advisory role to ONGCidentifyingrecovery technologies and practices with the aim of stabilizing production and reversing decline, returning production from this nationally important oilfield toa strong growthpath.

The successful candidate will report into a bp appointed leader within TSP, andselectioninto the role will be carried out by the relevant discipline/function leads. Please note that the job title and level of this posting is aligned with ONGC requirements. For anyqueriesplease reach out to the Talent Acquisition tag who will be able to redirect your query to the correct discipline lead.

This is an opportunity for a motivated individual to join the agile, fast-pacedand exciting integrated team that Advises ONGC on opportunities for Production Management, Depletion Management, and Area Development Planning to improve production and recovery from this field.

As a Geologist in the Mumbai High TSP team, you will play a central technical role in interpreting, integrating, and communicating geological insights that drive reservoir management decisions across the partnership. You will work closely with ONGC counterparts, bp subsurface specialists, and multidisciplinary teams across India and global bp hubs.

This is ahandsontechnical role suited to someone who brings strong geological fundamentals, thrives in collaborative environments, and enjoys shaping subsurface solutions for complex mature fields.

What you will deliver

• As an individual technical contributor, working closely with other subsurface disciplines and other business units such as the Wells organisation,you will deliver high-quality geological inputs to progress prioritised business opportunities.

• You will interpret and integrate core, well-log, seismic, analogue, and dynamic data (pressure, production etc.) to develop and refine the integrated structural, stratigraphic, depositional, rock property and fluid frameworkswhichunderpin integrated subsurface products.

• Your technical and business skills will enable you to developappropriate subsurfacescenarios, tocharacterise andcommunicate subsurface uncertaintiesand use this knowledge to planand deliver ‘fit for purpose’ technical products.

• Youwillsupportthebase managementandreservoir management opportunities to maximise economic recovery from existing infrastructure.

• Engage proactively with bp specialists, ONGC experts, andcross disciplinaryteam members (RE, PT, geophysics, data, wells) to drive integrated subsurfacesolutions.disciplinaryteam members (RE, PT, geophysics, data, wells) to drive integrated subsurface solutions.

• Support adoption ofnew technologies, digital workflows, and data-driven tools (e.g., RAPID-style workflows) that improve efficiency and reliability of subsurface interpretation.

• Your ability to clearly communicate subsurface uncertainty to colleagues and business leaders willenable the development ofappropriate riskmanagement and mitigation plans.

• As a geologist in bp’s geological and subsurface communities you will coach, share bestpracticeandseekto innovate to solve technical and business problems.
