Considering new roles after a portfolio reshuffle; I focus on reservoir simulation modeling and performance forecasting, leading history-matching and probabilistic forecasts on 5–10M-cell models in tNavigator/CMG with ensemble workflows and adjoint-assisted calibration… What are you seeing for senior IC comp in Houston or remote, and which teams are running decision-quality forecasts (not just slideware) right now?
In my last search, the thing that moved offers was walking in with a one-pager called ‘decision delta.’ I showed how an adjoint-calibrated ensemble flipped well order and cut cost-of-delay; that framed me as a decision partner and nudged comp up (Houston base mid-200s with 25–35% bonus; fully remote came about 10% lower). Caveat: if they can’t say who owns the risked type curve at FID, they’re not truly running decision-quality forecasting.
Bring a ‘runtime/$’ snapshot on 5–10M-cell tNavigator ensembles; managers love decision-quality under budget, but CMG cloud ops vary.
