Job Description

Production Analyst
Industry: Oil & Gas / Chemical Services
Location: Permian Basin, Texas
Position Summary
The Production Analyst supports commercial growth and technical execution by analyzing oil and gas production data to quantify the operational and economic value of chemical treatment programs. This role works at the intersection of production engineering, chemistry, field operations, and technical sales, translating well performance data into actionable insights that demonstrate customer value, improve production outcomes, and support revenue growth.

The Production Analyst will evaluate well performance before and after chemical treatment applications, identify production trends, measure treatment effectiveness, and develop economic analyses that support customer retention, program expansion, pricing strategies, and new business development. This position is ideal for an analytical professional with an understanding of upstream oil and gas production who can connect technical performance with financial results.

In a fast-paced, growth-oriented service environment, this individual will help establish standardized analytical processes, improve reporting capabilities, and provide data-driven recommendations that differentiate the company in competitive Permian Basin markets.
Key Responsibilities Production Analysis & Performance Optimization

  • Analyze oil and gas production data to evaluate well performance before and after chemical treatment programs.

  • Identify production trends, incremental production gains, decline mitigation, and improvements in operational reliability.

  • Evaluate treatment effectiveness across individual wells, pads, and customer accounts.

  • Collaborate with production engineers, chemists, and field personnel to identify opportunities for production optimization.

  • Develop standardized methodologies for measuring and validating the impact of chemical treatment programs.

  • Prepare production performance reports, technical summaries, and case studies to communicate results and recommendations.
Data Analysis & Reporting

  • Collect, organize, validate, and analyze production, treatment, and operational data from internal systems and customer-provided sources.

  • Develop and maintain dashboards, spreadsheets, and automated reporting tools to track production performance and treatment outcomes.

  • Identify anomalies, trends, and opportunities for improvement through detailed data analysis.

  • Establish consistent reporting standards and performance metrics across wells, customers, and operating areas.

  • Improve data quality, reporting efficiency, and analytical workflows as the business grows.
Economic Analysis & Commercial Support

  • Calculate incremental production value, return on investment (ROI), payout periods, and other financial performance metrics associated with chemical treatment programs.

  • Translate production improvements into measurable economic benefits for customers.

  • Support technical sales and account management teams with customer presentations, proposals, program justifications, and contract renewals.

  • Assist with pricing analysis, profitability assessments, forecasting, and evaluation of program expansion opportunities.

  • Prepare data-driven reports that demonstrate the financial impact and value of treatment programs.

  • Participate in customer meetings and technical performance reviews as needed.
Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with production engineering, chemistry, field operations, technical sales, account management, and leadership teams.

  • Support post-treatment evaluations and ongoing optimization initiatives.

  • Communicate findings and recommendations to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.

  • Help identify opportunities to improve customer outcomes, operational efficiency, and overall program profitability.

  • Contribute to the development of scalable analytical processes that support continued company growth.
Qualifications Experience & Education

  • 3–7 years of experience in production analysis, production engineering support, oil and gas analytics, chemical services, or a related technical field.

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Data Analytics, Mathematics, or a related discipline preferred.

  • Experience analyzing upstream oil and gas production data is strongly preferred.

  • Familiarity with chemical treatment programs, production optimization, artificial lift, or well performance analysis is a plus.

  • Experience supporting technical sales, customer accounts, or commercial performance evaluations is beneficial.

  • Knowledge of Permian Basin operations is highly desirable.
Technical Skills

  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including data manipulation, reporting, and financial modeling.

  • Experience with production data analysis, trend identification, and performance measurement.

  • Familiarity with data visualization tools such as Power BI or Tableau.

  • Working knowledge of SQL, Python, or similar tools for data extraction, analysis, and automation is preferred.

  • Understanding of upstream production metrics, including oil and gas volumes, water production, decline trends, and well performance.

  • Ability to perform economic evaluations, including incremental production valuation, ROI, payout, and profitability analysis.

  • Experience working with production databases, operational reporting systems, or oilfield data platforms is a plus.
Core Competencies

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with exceptional attention to detail.

  • Ability to interpret complex production data and develop clear, actionable recommendations.

  • Strong understanding of the relationship between production performance, operational efficiency, and customer economics.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
