Job Description
Well planning: Trajectory design based on reservoir targets and local constraints;
Directional well planning for all anticipated directional wells;
Directional Well Planning to include a Geodetic coordinates systems conversion application as well as a Geomatic model updated on a regular basis, i.e. BGGM (to model local Earth Magnetic
Field, Dip Angle, and Magnetic Declination);
Directional Well Planning to include well positioning uncertainty calculation based on ISCWSA
models;
Directional Well Planning to include way-to-target functionalities for daily well trajectory followup;
Candidate:
To provide directional maps: i.e. Vertical Section view plot, Plane view plot. The vertical directional map will allow projection of the well profile over unwrapped horizontal departure as opposed to a vertical section plan.
Trajectory plots on request;
Anti-collision calculations with existing wells while designing the trajectory;
Prepare spider plots and travelling cylinders with no-go areas;
Calculate Non-Magnetic spacing requirements to ensure surveys are within Field Acceptance
Criteria;
Select and propose BHAs including BHA tendency analysis;
Optimize the position of jars in the BHA with a proper dedicated jar placement software;
Perform hydraulic simulations (expected ESD, ECD and SPP). Recommendations on bit nozzle
selection or TFA;
Run Torque and Drag analysis, including casing, liner and other requirements;
Laise with multiple functions to ensure proper fitting between each BHA element (Jars, Reamers, etc.);
Technical support and advice to the CLIENT drilling department on the optimum techniques to realize the objectives of the well;
Recommend BHAs, drilling assemblies to achieve the desired directional requirements.
The recommendation shall include documented analysis of the predicted directional behavior, torque and drag, critical buckling, and hydraulics;
Keep survey database up-to-date with the latest drilled wells surveys;
Bit TFA calculation for Steerable Motor applications in order to "Thrust Balance" PDM motor bearing assembly for each application as a function of anticipated Flow Rate, Mud Weight and WOB;
Candidate:
shall use a BHA tendency predict model for planning, operational, and post-well analysis;
Candidate:
shall use a computer model to predict critical harmonic rotary speeds and review results of such predictions with CLIENT and make recommendations to minimize the risks of downhole failures due to harmonic peaks;
Recommendations to minimize well tortuosity must be provided;
In a collision-risk environment, assist the Directional Driller on the rig site and solely focus on the wellpath realization and projection a minimum of 45 m ahead.
Reporting:
Trajectory plots on a daily basis showing realized versus planned trajectory;
Validate, QC, and sign off final trajectory;
QC data from MWD measurements and gyro measurements, if any;
Provide the Directional Drilling Program and End-of-Well Report.
Keep track of Lessons learned.
