As a Senior Drilling Engineer, I provide drilling engineering support to clients in countries such as Congo, Chad and Equatorial Guinea. My job is to design and evaluate each well’s feasibility in terms of drilling ability by designing a suitable BHA (Bottom Hole Assembly) based on the clients' needs. I carry out simulations such as hydraulic, torque and drag, and proximity analysis to evaluate and analyse the risks involved in the job and prepare a mitigation plan for the offshore team to follow. This means I am available 24/7, and I sometimes get calls from the rig very late at night for assistance. I also follow up on the well during the execution phase to ensure that all the design constraints and mitigation plans are being properly followed. This also enables me to evaluate how we can improve our work through key performance indicators and lessons we have learned from previous wells drilled
