Job description

SLB's Houston Formation Evaluation (HFE) center is a premier facility for developing and delivering cutting edge software and hardware tools for the global energy industry spanning new energy and fossil fuel applications. HFE is seeking applicants for an engineering scientist position in the domain of nuclear physics with specific emphasis on particle transport in electric fields. The successful candidate must have general experience in nuclear particle accelerators. Specific experience in fit-for-purpose generators - such as pulsed neutron generators (PNGs) or x-ray generators - is preferred. The position initially spans both experiment and modeling toward the design, validation, and manufacturing of commercial products based on PNGs.
Nuclear measurements are critical for characterizing the Earth's subsurface toward delivering advanced answers while logging (measuring) deep underground. SLB's industry- leading technology is developed both for legacy oil and gas applications and to build on our leadership in the global energy transition.
As a member of our multidisciplinary team, you will have a key role in developing and implementing hardware prototypes and models based on fundamental science to solve real-world problems. You will provide physical understanding, experimental know-how, and computing skills to take advantage of nuclear measurements that span diverse spatial scales and sensing techniques. Scientists are encouraged to publish research results, to present work at conferences, and to patent innovative ideas.
The broader physics community at HFE has expertise in acoustics, EM, nuclear magnetic resonance, and geophysical measurements. Physicists collaborate with software and answer product engineers, including AI developers. Extensive datasets and computing infrastructure are available on the premises and in the cloud.
Roles & Responsibilities - the successful candidate will engage in these activities:
  • Provide research and development solutions based on principles of physics and mathematical models
  • Build virtual and real prototypes, products, and systems suitable for testing
