Senior Technical Geophysicist – Quantitative Interpretation & 4D
Total Number of Openings 1 Chevron is accepting online applications for the position Senior Technical Geophysicist – Quantitative Interpretation & 4D through 9/18/2026 at 11:59 p.m. ( CST ). Chevron's Geophysics Center of Excellence is seeking a highly experienced technical geophysicist to strengthen our Quantitative Interpretation and 4D (QI/4D) team, with a specific focus on land assets. This role is centered on quantitative interpretation and, most importantly, on deploying geophysical products to end users and ensuring those products are fully exploited to maximize subsurface value. The successful candidate will bring 15–20 years of industry experience and a proven track record that already includes planning seismic surveys, overseeing seismic data processing and imaging, and building rock physics models. Rather than performing those upstream activities as the primary duty, the geophysicist will draw on that deep background to deliver, integrate, and champion QI products, so that end users, from exploration and development teams through drilling and completions, extract full value from the data. The position requires a seasoned practitioner who works independently, sets technical direction, mentors others, and communicates effectively across technical and business audiences. Responsibilities for this position may include but are not limited to: Quantitative Interpretation Delivery Lead the delivery of quantitative interpretation products across land assets, including rock physics modeling, seismic inversion, elastic-property estimation (Vp, Vs, density), and seismic attribute analysis. Perform and QC well ties, wavelet extraction, synthetic generation, fluid substitution, AVO modeling, and tuning analysis that underpin robust QI outputs. Ensure QI products are physically consistent, well-calibrated, and fit for purpose for the decisions they support. Product Deployment to End Users Deploy geophysical and QI products out to end users, including asset exploration
