Job description
CGG () is the global leader in subsurface imaging, analysing a range of geophysical data to produce sophisticated, highly precise images and models of the subsurface. To do this involves processing immense data volumes through complex physical algorithms; and we operate some of the most powerful scientific high-performance computing in the world with 500 PFlops of compute power.
Do you want to learn how physics and mathematics are used to solve real-world challenges?
Our geophysicists use their scientific knowledge and problem solving skills to apply the latest signal processing & imaging techniques to create state of the art three-dimensional images and models of the subsurface reflectivity and rock properties.
You will join a team of geophysicists working on an on-going seismic imaging project, be given responsibility for testing a key project topic and gain experience working in a professional scientific environment.
What will it involve?
This is a paid internship which we plan to run for 6 weeks from the 2nd July . We provide assistance with accommodation in the form of company organised housing if we have availability or a housing allowance if you wish to rent elsewhere. You will be based in Crawley, a town just south of London, with excellent transport links to central London, the South Coast, the wider UK, and international destinations via nearby Gatwick Airport.
There will be initial training in the first week on in-house software, introductory geology & geophysics and client technical presentation skills. You will also be invited to another soft skills training workshop during your stay, attend technical seminars and have the opportunity to talk to technical experts in other fields of geoscience. You will also have access to our considerable training resources and be buddied up with a geophysicist.
Third year of an undergraduate Master’s degree OR in your final year of a Bachelor’s degree planning to start a postgraduate Master’s degree in 2024/25.
The internship is open to anyone studying Physics & Astronomy, Mathematics or Geophysics.
Our Hub on Gradcracker should give you an insight into the people at CGG, the projects we work on and some application tips!
Application process
Closing date for CV applications is 21st March 2024.
If your initial application is accepted you will then be invited to complete a ten-minute one-way video interview by the 31st March.
If you are successful the final stage of the application process will involve a technical interview - depending on your location and university schedule this can be virtual or in-person. This will probably take place the week of April 15th or April 22nd .
We receive a lot of very talented and enthusiastic applications for a limited number of intern positions. If you are not selected for the internship but demonstrate the enthusiasm for science and key skills we look for then we can fast track your application for our 2025 graduate role.
Benefits for the internship
We see things differently. Diversity fuels our innovation, we value the unique ways in which we differ, and we are committed to equal employment opportunities for all professionals.
