Schlumberger Cambridge Research works at the cutting edge of oil-field services, providing a dynamic R&D environment for international projects.

We are currently seeking a Computational Physicist/Mathematical Modeller to join our Fluid Mechanics Modelling group. The job will involve investigating a number of oil well operations and measurement processes, and using the results of quantitative modelling to improve their success rate and accuracy.

The successful candidate will have:

a PhD in theoretical physics, applied mathematics, or other quantitative physical science;
experience in application of mathematical techniques to describe and predict the behaviour of physical, chemical or biological systems;
