Job Objective :- The DWM and SCE Project Engineer must achieve an intermediate to advanced level of knowledge and is directly responsible for safely and efficiently managing the operation of Solids Control equipment required at the well site. At this level, the employee has an in-depth understanding of how drilling fluids and waste management systems influence each other. The employee may be capable of performing advanced troubleshooting on core technologies (i.e., shale shakers, centrifuges, solids control pumps, SUPA VAC, Skip & ship Equipment, Vertical dryers, Dewatering equipment, zero discharge systems equipment, fixation units, screw conveyors, and bulk systems /LMP).
Key Responsibilities/Duties :-
Quality & HSE
- Complies with all company and regulatory Quality, HSE, and IT standards and policies
- Wears all Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as required and maintains required Quality & HSE certifications up to date
- Takes proactive measures to eliminate safety hazards by performing an appropriate Risk Analysis (i.e. JSA) before each job or task.
General Drilling Concepts
- Knowledgeable regarding drilling rig types, rig components, rig component functions, drilling operations (i.e. drilling, tripping pipe, running casing, cementing, completions, etc.), and the drilling fluids circulation system
- Knowledgeable regarding the drilling fluid system (i.e. drilling mud, its components, and each component function), the impact of low gravity solids (LGS), and primary techniques and systems used for drilling waste management
Professional Experience
- Do a survey to install solids control material and equipment, beginning with a mud tank, shale shakers, high-dryer, desander, desilter, and centrifuge.
- Specify equipment, materials, ratings, and grades to be used in the drilling process.
- Provide technical support and audit during the drilling process.
- Provide field technical services to oil field customers.
- Supervise field service technicians and supervise staff in remote locations.
- Perform general training and technical assistance to customers.
- Handles special projects as assigned.
- Performing cost estimates and analysis.
- Operating, monitoring, and maintenance of all solids control equipment for offshore and onshore drilling rigs, dewatering sites, shop areas, and other oil & gas-related sites.
- Assisting in the severing, troubleshooting & installation of equipment as required.
