الوصف الوظيفي

Accountabilities.   
The successful Production Technologist will be directly responsible for the review in agreement with drilling department- the well design and architecture that will be used on future wells. The incumbent will review existing data and plan and recommend additional data acquisition. For each well architecture/design and sensitivity analyses, the incumbent will prepare and provide the required vertical flow performance tables (Pipesim/Prosper) to include them into the reservoir simulation. In addition, he/she will obtain short term forecasts -from analytical methods (such as MBAL)- of well productivity based on its architecture and design. The incumbent will provide support to reservoir engineers for simulation and well testing and align results with Reservoir Engineers

Job activities.  
  • Works with subsurface, wells and surface teams to mature and deliver Field Development Plans and other reports on wide range of green and brown field projects.
  • Select, design and oversee drilling of onshore wells in conjunction with Drilling and Subsurface groups.
  • Actively engage with Operations department to provide daily support to offshore operations on all matters related to Production System optimization. Responsible for well completion design including sand control technique/requirement.
  • Challenge existing designs and operational processes in order to apply best technologies and practices, and minimise operating costs
  • Good knowledge in reservoir engineering, drilling and petroleum economics through past experience with multidiscipline project
  • Ability and experience to challenge existing designs and well operational processes in order to apply best technologies and practices and minimize operating costs.
  • Identify, evaluate and propose innovative Production Technology strategies to enhance Well Construction and Well Operation performance.
  • Past experience to lead the evaluation of production performance including associated risk assessment for current installation, as well advantages and limitations of new well technology.
  • Fully understanding of Injectivity, flow assurance and formation damage behaviors in relations to any FDP/FFR development project.
  • Define well completion standards for various completion phases (post-drilling, post-fracturing, post-completion) conforming to QAMP barrier policy.
  • Define velocity string requirement, if any. Establish velocity string specifications and installation schedule using production profile forecasted by QAMPs reservoir engineering team.
  • Responsible for completion engineering evaluations that contribute to well planning, conceptual design, and material ordering.
  • Demonstrate the ability to execute preliminary completion and operations design that permit the development and assessment of various well design concepts under consideration for current and future field development plan implementation. This involves concept definition, clear understanding of concept feasibility as well as development of screening estimates for time, cost and equipment required.
  • Work closely with the Well Delivery teams to produce and assess several completion designs from sand face (reservoir) to wellhead.
  • Selects optimum completion design taking into account all the lifecycle elements, installation risk, well intervention, and well treatment requirements, arriving at an optimum balance of cost, risk and value.
  • Actively pursue design improvements, incorporating learning points from appraisal wells and best practices from other Operators.
  • Have excellent interpersonal and team skills. Having experience of working in a multi-discipline and/or multi-cultural team is considered a key advantage.
  • Identifies subsurface uncertainties and develops plans to acquire production related data to mitigate the associated risks.
