What does a reservoir engineer do?

A Reservoir Engineer is a specialized professional in the oil and gas industry who evaluates oil and gas reservoirs to maximize extraction and recovery. They use advanced computer modeling, data analysis, and field studies to estimate reserves, plan production strategies, and monitor reservoir performance. Their work involves collaborating with geologists, drilling engineers, and production teams to ensure efficient and sustainable extraction. Reservoir Engineers also help determine the economic viability of projects and suggest enhanced recovery techniques when necessary.
