About this role

Harbour Energy is one of the world’s largest independent oil and gas companies, producing 475,000 to 485,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day with operations in Mexico and other regions. The Lead Geologist role focuses on developing subsurface geological studies and 3D static models that support development planning, well placement and reservoir characterisation across BU assets.

Day-to-day work involves integrating seismic, well log and core data into coherent geological interpretations while supporting hydrocarbon volumetric estimation. The position also provides operational geology support including well initiation, drilling follow-up and post-well evaluation as project priorities require.

Harbour maintains an inclusive workplace where individuals bring their whole selves to the job and feel recognised for the value they add. The company is committed to a genuinely supportive environment and recruits based on unique skills regardless of background.

Team members contribute to internal technical reviews, Peer Reviews and Peer Assists while representing the discipline in JV partner technical meetings. This role offers the opportunity to help shape the future of a company focused on safe, responsible energy production.
