Senior Reservoir Engineer @OMV
Vienna, AT
CCS & Underground H₂ Storage | Fluid flow, SCAL/PVT, QA/QC, modelling, reporting• Lead fluid-flow and multiphase displacement workstreams supporting CO2 storage and underground H2 storage opportunities; contribute to technical maturation aligned with energy-transition strategy. • Define study scope, success criteria, and deliverables across lab, interpretation, and model integration, ensuring outputs are decision-grade for feasibility and business case pathways.• Design and implement SCAL/PVT and HPHT coreflood programs; establish and maintain HSE procedures for CO2/H2 testing and high-pressure operations.• Own QA/QC workflows for lab data and interpretations; translate results into upscaled inputs and clear recommendations for technical stakeholders. • Partner cross-functionally with Finance/Commercial/Technical stakeholders to ensure feasibility, risk awareness, and alignment with profitability and strategic targets.

SKILLS
ABOUT AMIR FARZANEH
I’m a Senior Reservoir Engineer / Subsurface Fluids & Flow specialist with 20+ years spanning CCS, underground hydrogen storage, SCAL/PVT, and EOR, with a consistent focus on turning complex lab and pore-scale physics into decision-quality inputs for development planning and business case maturation.In my role as Senior Reservoir Engineer at OMV Exploration & Production, I lead fluid-flow programs supporting CO2 storage and subsurface H2 storage. My work sits at the intersection of experimental design, HSSE, QA/QC governance, and upscaling / modelling, ensuring results are robust enough to influence screening, feasibility, and investment decisions.At Heriot-Watt University’s Centre for Enhanced Oil Recovery & CO2 Solutions (and Petroc Technologies), I manage and co-lead major industry-funded programs covering low-salinity waterflooding, WAG, carbonated waterflooding, heavy-oil EOR, microfluidics, and related multiphase-flow research, frequently working directly with sponsors through regular reviews, workshops, and technical reporting under strict timelines.What I’m recognised for:• Adopting a holistic perspective on subsurface challenges—integrating risk, uncertainty, and decision impact into structured, testable workflows.• Designing and delivering HPHT coreflood, SCAL, and PVT programs under robust HSE and QA/QC frameworks.• Translating laboratory outcomes into scalable, decision-ready inputs for core-scale and reservoir simulation, interpretation, and stakeholder reporting.
