Reports To: Remote Geosteering Supervisor
Date: 8/11/2025
Version: 1.0
Position Overview
Step into a role where your expertise shapes decisions in real time. As a Remote Geosteerer with Impac Exploration Services, Inc., you won’t just monitor wells from a distance—you’ll make real-time decisions, collaborating closely with drilling engineers, directional drillers, and geology peers in a virtual environment built for fast, precise execution.
This is more than a job. It’s an opportunity to:
- Influence the outcome of high-value drilling projects in real time.
- Gain unmatched visibility into the inner workings of multiple operators’ drilling programs.
- Build a strong career foundation in both geosteering and broader operational geology.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide real-time geosteering guidance to optimize wellbore placement, working closely with drilling and directional teams.
- Master and follow each operator’s established Standard Operating Procedures.
- Thrive in collaborative team structures, ensuring seamless coordination between geology and drilling functions.
- Complete geological side projects, special studies, and operational initiatives during non-drilling intervals.
- Integrate geological interpretations into drilling decisions and proactively recommend adjustments to improve performance.
- Uphold rigorous QA/QC standards for all geosteering and geological analyses.
- Use cross sections to anticipate casing points, coring intervals, and adjustments to landing targets.
- Remain agile in responding to shifting priorities and operational demands.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Geology, Geophysics, or a related field.
- Prior experience in geosteering or operations geology.
- Strong understanding of drilling operations and how geological interpretations influence drilling dynamics.
- Experience working in collaborative, high-performance team environments.
- Proficiency with geosteering software (e.g., StarSteer, ZoneVu) and geological databases; ability to quickly learn new tools.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and multitasking skills.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and general computer literacy.
- Authorization to work in the U.S.
Work Environment & Schedule
- Remote role: work from a private, distraction-free home office.
- Rotational schedule: 2 weeks on / 2 weeks off, rotating between day and night shifts.
Reporting Structure
Reports to the Remote Geosteering Supervisor, contributing to a fully integrated team focused on drilling excellence and operational performance.
Why This Role Stands Out
You’ll be part of the decision-making engine behind high-stakes drilling operations—working alongside the professionals who drive some of the most technically advanced wells in the world. This role offers a rare chance to grow as both a geoscientist and a strategic thinker in an environment where precision, speed, and insight define success.
