Perform or supervise the collection of cuttings samples, from the proper lagged depths and at the proper intervals as required for evaluation. Wash and screen samples, divide them into correct portions, and pack them by sets for the Client, partners and trade. Examine and describe samples as per oil industry standards and client’s specifications. Descriptions are to be performed in order for surface logging system to provide an independent evaluation of the well. Monitor tasks in a safe, timely and accurate manner in order to assist in the efficient completion of exploration and development wells for oil and gas. Evaluate all samples for the presence of hydrocarbon shows; closely monitor gas levels, lag time and drilling parameters.
Geologging
Wellsite Geologist
Supervision and quality control of mud logging and daily drilling operation. Examine drill cuttings and core samples – lithology, fluorescence and calcimetry. Identify and report all formation tops and correlate formations drilled with nearby wells. Describe and report all shows of hydrocarbons. Pick casing and coring points in consultation with the drilling supervisor and office geologist to ensure integrity of casing shoes and full recovery of cores over reservoir objectives. Prepare and send geological daily reports. Prepare reports of any significant geological changes. Supervise the collection, labeling and shipment of drill cuttings and cores.
Sterling Oil Exploration & Energy Production Company
Operations Geologist
Assist in aspects of subsurface well planning in close collaboration with the subsurface technical roles: Well proposals, post well reviews, final well reporting and generation of supporting documentation required for internal and external approvals. Assist the drilling team during the well design process in risk assessments, trajectory and casing depths optimization; data acquisition program. Monitor well trajectory using Interact from Schlumberger and is updated online in Petrel for comparison with the planned and correlate with the offset wells. Responsible for the implementation of the geological well program, supervision of MWD/LWD operation, coring operation, wireline logging operations and provide geological operations.
Halliburton
Wellsite Geologist
Provide geological analysis during drilling to ensure that the well program meets its subsurface objectives. Description of drill cuttings, hydrocarbon show analysis and pick-up formation tops. Advice drilling supervisor at wellsite of expected lithological sequence, pay zones, casing depth, coring point depth, expected drilling fluid loss zones, high pressure zones, changes in rate of penetration and possible hazardous intervals. Supervision of real time drilling operations and geosteering management: Monitoring of directional trajectory and evaluation of reservoir, prepare geological well forecasts and structural prediction through interpretation and analysis of MWD/LWD logs.
PetroChina International
Senior Geological Supervisor
Direct and follow-up the work of contractors and laboratory assistants on the rigs to ensure proper implementation of the geological program and to ensure safe working practices. Provide an on-site geological analysis during the drilling of wells to support the well programme in meeting its geological objectives, this include collecting and describing cuttings and cores, advising drilling personnel at well site of expected lithological sequence, pay zones, casing depth, rate of penetration and possible hazardous intervals, ensures the execution of logging programs, interpretation of lithology and drilling fluid condition.
Shell
Senior Wellsite Geologist
Report to the company designated office for pre-well spud briefing. Evaluate geological offset data and potential related hazards before the start of drilling and highlight in pre-spud meeting. Manage subsurface aspects of drilling at the direction of the subsurface team and with the purpose of ensuring best practice target evaluation and geological data collection at the rig site. Provide geological support during drilling operations. Supervision and follow-up subsurface aspects of drilling operations from the time the surface hole is drilled till total depth and to alert the drilling supervisor whenever any abnormality is observed in the operation (e.g. drilling break, gas cut mud, etc.).
