Well Planning Engineer (Drilling Engineer (office based))
at Gulf of Suez Petroleum Company (GUPCO)
Location :
Egypt - Cairo
Drilling Engineer \[office based\], in company's headquarter in Cairo, Egypt.
- Worked on planning a highly-deviated complex profile well (S-shape with hold & turn sections) with 17, 400 ft MD, up to 65° Inclination, and high temperature reservoir up to 320 °F.
- Planning & follow-up on execution of a well re-entry (pulled corroded completion, P&A, Whipstock & cased-hole sidetrack, drill thru massive salt section with high mud weight, avoid collision risk with many neighboring wells using SLB PowerDrive® RSS & Mud motors, run 7'' liner, drill thru depleted reservoir section with OBM, cure total mud losses successfully, ran & cemented 5'' liner)
- Conduct feasibility studies on development and exploration drilling options. Prepare well development plans, and detailed drilling programs for various wells.
- Tackle the growing challenges due to maturing fields and assets by challenging the traditional technical paradigms in different phases of drilling the well by introducing new technologies.
Follow BP Policy in NWD (New well delivery process) in well planning tasks such as:
* Study offset wells, analyse and extract problems encountered during drilling in a process to prepare PPFG (Pore Pressure and Fracture Gradient model). And then try to resolve these problems for future work.
* Prepare non drilling surprises panel for risk analysis.
* Follow up on the geomechanical analysis and WellBore Stability Studies.
* Follow up on location preparation (Offshore platforms).
* Revise service companies proposals for Mud, BHA, Bits, ...
* Preparing time and cost estimates for new drilling and workover wells.
* Utilization Halliburton Landmark® software package to perform engineering calculations:
- Compass®: Trajectory planning & optimization, Directional well design
- Well plan®: Torque/Drag, Hydraulics, Surge/Swab, ... modules
- Casing Seat® / Stress Check®: Casing Design.
- Open wells®: Reporting, NPT & performance tracking, explore offset wells, extract data and perform different analyses.
- Well Cost® (Cost estimation & project planning, including NPT & probability calculations)
- Casing Wear® software (to calculate wear in cased-hole sidetrack options)
