Job Responsibilties
The incumbent follows-up and coordinates COMPANY’s Geological operations relating to (but not limited to):

• HSE: Championing and integrating common-sense and Company prescribed safety best practices in Well planning (e.g Pore Pressure Prognosis), Geological data acquisition and follow-up of Well operations (Pore Pressure monitoring).
• Planning: Liaising with stakeholders (Drillers, Assets, etc.) to validate Well Conceptual Phase (3W) and define technical requirements (Well Statement of Requirements – WSOR) and mitigations required to drill Wells safely (including strategy for efficient execution of Geological Operations). Works with Service Contractors and Wellsite Geologists to plan logistics deployment (and demobilization) of personnel and equipment to and from the Wellsite.
• Operations Supervision: Coordinates Wellsite Geologists and Contractors to monitor and execute Well and Geological operations (LWD, Wireline Logging, Mud Logging, Coring, Formation Pressure Testing and Fluid Sampling, VSP).
• Reporting: Assuring timely, concise, and accurate reporting of Well activity (including Well Location Reports, Daily Reports and Geological End of Well Reports).
• Pore Pressure: Performance of Pore Pressure Studies (Pre, during and Post-Well) with support from N+1 and HQ specialists.
• Operations Quality Assurance: Liaising with Service Contractors (Wireline, Mud Logging) to review performance and improve service quality through regular Service Quality Meetings, Audit of equipment (Unit, Gas Chain).
• Cost Control: Tracking and management of costs related to Well monitoring and Formation evaluation activities.
• Know-How: Shares Geological operations feedback and experience to educate and inform stakeholders (GSR, DCD, HQ).
• Mentoring: Coaching Wellsite Geologists (especially Juniors / Cadets) to grow technical autonomy and improve soft skills

Accountabilties

• Safety: Risk of major industrial accident and potential loss of life and equipment caused by inefficient operations supervision or wrong Well design due to inaccurate Pore Pressure Prediction or poor real-time follow-up.
• Cost Optimization: Potential for cost escalation if operational costs are poorly tracked and managed.

Qualifications / Experience Required

• Formal Education (Diplomas): BSc or MSc Degree in Geology (or equivalent).
• Technical Background: Min of 12 years of relevant Geology experience including – Pore Pressure studies and monitoring, Well geological operations planning and supervision, Geosteering operations, Formation evaluation, Mud Logging etc.
• Certifications: Must hold a valid certification from IFP Training in Subsurface Geological Operations.
• Behaviour: Team Player, Pro-active, Attentive to details, Good Communicator, Open-Minded.
• Social Awareness: Fluent in English (additional languages are a plus), adaptable to multi-cultural environment.
