Since you are also a geophysicist hope you are an experienced seismic interpreter because what the major E&P companies are looking for is an experienced geoscientist who have strong background in geology and seismic interpretation. Better if you are skilled in basin evolution and seismic sequence startigraphy, prospect maturation and FFR/FDP (full field review/field development plan) can be easily handle by junior geoscientist. However, facies interpretation alone (mudlogging) is not enough to give you a good job. But if your geophysics background is very solid, try processing and acquisition line or if you are interested in both spectrum try work in seismic well bore (service companies) which later you can pick-up on advance geophysical analysis in reservoir characterization.
Go to as much international G&G conferences as you can (AAPG SEG, GEO etc.) Some international major oil companies open-up their booths for recruitments. Some oil companies actually handle first phase interviews there. Good Luck!!

Several companies would probably bend over backward to hire you. Who would you like to work for? Do some research on a few companies. Go to their websites. I've noticed "interest" applications on several websites of major oil companies. Also, this might be a good time to evaluate other options. With your experience, maybe the State of Texas would hire you as an oil field regulator. It would probably be a cut in pay, but would offer other benefits that might off-set the cut in pay.

www.rigzone.com is specifically geared to the offshore oil and energy industry. They have a career center where you can search for a job that you are qualified for and interested in.
You shouldn't have much trouble, drilling companies are desperate for people right now.

Wouldn't it be fun to go out on one of those oil drilling platforms in the Gulf of Mexico? Big pay, good food, and you only get to see your wife about once a month - just right!

Have you considered going into Environmental Geology? THere are several companies that use geophysics for hydrogeologic investigations and clean ups. Check out NGWA.org for company names.
