design aspects and through coordinating with wellsite personnel in the
execution of ongoing and planned well operations. Other responsibilities
cover:
- planning the supply of all non-standard direct charge material
requirements.
- providing timely and accurate information to well engineering management
on operational status and any deviations from plans, programs, policies,
procedures or guidelines.

and services required.
- maintaining regular contact with drilling contractor and service company
representatives to ensure mutual understanding of operational requirements
as well as to identify opportunities for quality improvements.
- supervising contractor staff
- analyzing performance and identifying areas for improvement

To be successful with your application, you will need to possess at least a
higher education Diploma (eg. HND or equivalent), but preferably a Bachelors
Degree or higher, in a technical or engineering subject. You'll need to have
significant experience in well engineering, which must include proven
combined supervision experience as both a Drilling Supervisor in the field
and as an office-based Operations Well Engineer. Experience with concurrent
drilling and production operations is desirable.
Your abilities will include being able to immediately and effectively
fulfill any well engineering related task and to achieve assigned objectives
with minimal support from the existing well engineering organization. Strong
interpersonal relations and communication skills as well as a good working
knowledge of well engineering software packages are expected.
