## Description

Aramco is seeking a Brine Reservoir Engineer to develop and manage world-class brine resources and subsurface reserves. The successful candidate will provide specialized engineering services as part of customized reservoir management practices to maximize the extraction of mineral-rich brines from oil-field brines (such as lithium and other critical minerals) and optimize Net Present Value (NPV).

Key responsibilities include formulating brine reservoir development, data acquisition, and sustainable extraction-and-reinjection strategies; designing and implementing solutions for brine reservoir performance analysis, flow dynamics, and field development plans focusing on consistent mineral concentration yields; supervising and supporting comprehensive reservoir modeling and simulation studies to identify optimal well spacing for both extraction and disposal/reinjection wells; monitoring operating expenses to operate and maintain wells to produce the highest volumes of mineral-rich brine at the lowest cost; working closely with multidisciplinary teams (geoscience, drilling, production) in planning and conducting reservoir field studies focused on fluid-rock interactions and brine enrichment zones; preparing requirements for well construction and developing designs for extraction and reinjection wells, providing technical assistance to drilling staff; providing economic evaluation to support fast-paced development decisions; and training and mentoring young engineers and professionals within the department.

Minimum requirements include a Bachelor's degree in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Hydrogeology from an accredited university (Advanced degree preferred); 10+ years of experience in reservoir engineering or advanced hydrogeology, including expertise in reservoir simulation, reserves management (preferably brine), and formation evaluation.
