About Belltree
We are a global software provider and energy advisory business. Our technical teams consists of reservoir engineers, geologists and data scientists working alongside our supporting business development and administrative teams. For more than 15 years, we have been a trusted partner of government regulators, NOCs and IOCs working to maximise oil & gas asset performance and identify hidden reserves potential in a sustainable manner.
Unlike many consultancies, we go further than just the traditional field-level, details orientated approach by adding a broader data-driven analysis of our client's field performance within the context of regional and global analogue datasets. This unique approach to understanding field value is enabled by the application of our industry leading software program, bMark(TM).
Since launch in 2015, bMark(TM) has allowed users to discover the value story of their assets, empowering teams with instant access to an independent, global and statistically robust technical database of 51,000+ oil & gas assets. bMark(TM) is utilised by key decision makers in the industry to minimize risk and inform investment decisions by interrogating data using advanced analytics and predictive benchmarking algorithms within the easy-to-learn interface. These workflows complement traditional engineering, geoscience and commercial workflows to harness maximum value from assets or portfolios.
We are evolving with the industry and branching our focus to the energy transition, creating new intelligence and data-driven tools to inform decision makers in the energy revolution. As experts in maximizing asset performance, we are developing a new data-driven tool to optimize asset potential though Carbon Capture and Storage, facilitating net zero carbon goals for governments and operators worldwide.
Belltree's offices are based in the City Centre of Edinburgh, Scotland. Like many companies since the COVID-19 pandemic we have operated a hybrid office/home working model. Currently we work from the office on Wednesdays & Thursdays with employees able to choose to work from their home or from the office on the remaining days in a way that best balances their personal circumstances with work requirements. Therefore the candidate must be able to commute to central Edinburgh on a regular basis in order to fulfil their role.
When not in the office, the team connects with each other effectively via the Microsoft SharePoint / Teams environments ensuring that work remains collaborative and dynamic even when working remotely. The candidate will be provided with all IT requirements and full setup support to enable them to work effectively and efficiently from home.
