Senior Well Site Geologist

• Real-time geological surveillance and interpretation integrated with drilling activities
• Monitor and interpret cuttings, mud gas, LWD/MWD, and wireline data in real-time
• Identify formation tops, lithology changes, and hydrocarbon shows
• Correlate actual geology with pre-drill models and seismic prognosis
• Detect abnormal pressures, faults, and drilling hazards (e.g., overpressure, instability, lost circulation, gas kicks)
• Guide trajectory adjustments to stay within target reservoir zones
• Recommend casing setting depths and call phase TD and well TD when geologically established
• Recommend coring points and optimize rate of penetration versus geological real-time acquisition sampling rate compliance
• Supervise and anticipate services under geoscience perimeter (equipment, personnel, activity, NPT)
• Manage and ensure quality in mud logging, wireline, LWD, and coring operations
• Execute acquisition programs and ensure data quality and completeness
• Oversee sample handling and shipping (gas, cuttings, mud, cores, rotary sidewall cores, fluids samples, etc.)
• HSE compliance and risk management
• Participate in risk assessments, safety meetings, and incident reporting
• Ensure offshore regulations compliance for self and support companies
• Communication, reporting, and leadership
• Act as the primary geological authority on the rig
• Provide timely and accurate reports (daily geological reports, end-of-well reports, Retour experience, presentations, real-time and memory data, etc.)
• Lead and mentor junior wellsite geologists and trainees
• Coordinate between onshore and offshore teams and service companies
• Participate in pre-drill planning and post-well reviews

• Minimum 10 years in the position of senior well site geologist
• Experience in well types such as exploration and appraisal, deep offshore, vertical and deviated wells, sidetracks, and high-temperature-pressure wells
• Operational experience in activities such as logging while drilling, coring, extensive wireline acquisition, DST, sidetrack, and plug & abandon
• Expertise in deep offshore drilling operations and subsurface geology practices
• GEOSCIENCE diploma: BTS (BAC+2) geology orientation or higher (with relevant experience in Operations Geology)
• BOSIET, including EBS (Emergency Breathing System)
• Offshore medical certificate
• English: Advanced-Proficient, mandatory
• GRAVITAS, Gemstone, SQMT
• Strong geology fundamentals: Sedimentology, stratigraphy, structural geology
• Formation evaluation & petrophysics understanding
• Real-time data quality control, interpretation, and integration (cuttings, gas, logs, pressures, gains-losses, depth control, lag time, equipment efficiency)
• Deep knowledge of: Drilling operations, Mud logging, Logging technologies (LWD/WL), Coring
• Not in-depth but involved knowledge of: Fluid systems (mud, cement, brine)
• Well delivery process
• Offshore logistics & constraints
• High adaptability to remote, harsh offshore conditions
