· Experience with and an understanding of current and leading edge imaging technology, its benefits, and its limitations essential.
· Familiar with pre-processing techniques for effective imaging, velocity model building and iterative updating.
· Familiar with the full range of depth conversion methodologies, 2D and 3D acoustic and elastic modeling, and seismic illumination technology.
· Experience with borehole geophysics including the use of Vertical Seismic Profiles for near well imaging highly desired.
· Previous experience using geophysical industry software essential (e.g. Landmark Interpretation suite, 3D Visualization (VoxelGeo or Geoprobe).
· Experience using Promax and/or Geodepth highly desired.
· Be able to demonstrate a history and ability to contribute in a team environment essential.
· Excellent communications skills with the ability to converse at all levels.
