• Using seismic attributes and well control to contribute to regional palaeoenvironmental mapping
• Supporting prospect identification, evaluation and maturation through regional-scale interpretation.
• Contributing to the preparation of clear, concise and standardized technical deliverables

This position offers an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in regional seismic interpretation and exploration workflows within an international and multicultural E&P environment, while directly supporting exploration studies and future development opportunities.
