Location: Remote
Position Type: Full-Time (Contract)
MUST HAVE SPECIFIC EXPERIENCE IN MAPPING IN OIL & GAS
Position OverviewWe are looking for a skilled Oil & Gas GIS Agent with a strong background in mapping and spatial analysis to support land, title, and operational teams. This role is heavily focused on building, analyzing, and maintaining accurate map data related to mineral ownership, lease boundaries, and drilling activity.
The ideal candidate understands that GIS in oil & gas isn’t just “making maps”—it’s about connecting spatial data to real-world land decisions, ownership, and title.
Key Responsibilities- Create, edit, and maintain detailed GIS maps for oil & gas projects, including lease boundaries, unit outlines, well locations, and ownership layers
- Analyze spatial data to support land, title, and due diligence efforts
- Integrate and reconcile data from multiple sources (courthouse records, survey data, shapefiles, land systems)
- Work closely with Landmen, Lease Analysts, and Division Order teams to ensure mapping aligns with ownership and title data
- Identify and resolve discrepancies between mapped data and legal descriptions
- Support acquisition and divestiture projects through GIS mapping and data validation
- Maintain GIS databases and ensure data accuracy and consistency
- Produce high-quality visual maps and reports for internal teams and clients
- Assist in building and improving GIS workflows and mapping standards
- 3+ years of GIS experience in the oil & gas industry
- Strong proficiency in ArcGIS (ArcMap and/or ArcGIS Pro)
- Experience working with shapefiles, geodatabases, and spatial data management
- Solid understanding of PLSS, metes and bounds, and legal land descriptions
- Experience mapping lease boundaries, units, wells, and ownership data
- Strong attention to detail and ability to manage large datasets with accuracy
- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and data handling
- Experience across key basins
- Background in land, title, or division order work
- Familiarity with GIS tools integrated with land systems (e.g., P2, Quorum, LandWorks)
- Experience with ArcGIS Online, QGIS, or spatial data automation tools (Python is a plus)
- Ability to read and interpret survey plats and title documents
- You don’t just map—you understand what the map means
- You can spot a bad legal description or boundary mismatch before it becomes a problem
- You’re comfortable working with messy, incomplete data and making it make sense
- You can translate complex spatial data into something land and leadership teams can actually use
- Work on high-impact oil & gas projects across multiple basins
- Be part of a team that values precision, speed, and collaboration
- Opportunity to grow your technical and industry expertise
- Flexible work environment with competitive compensation
